How We Keep Your Destin Pontoon Cruise Safe & Fun

Running our pontoon cruise in Destin Harbor and Crab Island is more than just sunshine and good times. We want everyone to have fun, but we also make sure everyone is safe and comfortable from start to finish. Here’s how we do it.

Before We Leave the Dock

Before the boat even leaves the dock, our captain checks everything. This means looking at the weather, checking the water, and making sure the boat is in great shape from front to back. We want to be ready for anything.

Quick and Friendly Safety Talk

When you get on board, you’ll get a short and friendly safety talk. We keep it simple and easy to understand. You’ll learn about the route we’re taking, where all the safety gear is, and what to do if something unexpected happens. Think of it as a quick intro with a safety twist.

Safety Gear Onboard

Our boat has all the safety equipment you need for your trip. We have U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets for everyone, and they’re easy to grab if you need them. There’s also a throwable flotation ring, a fire extinguisher that’s ready to go, and sound signals to get attention if needed. All the lights and safety gear are checked and working before every trip. You might not notice it, but it’s all there, keeping you safe while you have fun.

Our Captain Goes the Extra Mile

Our captains don’t just follow the rules—they go above and beyond. They watch out for other boats, slow down around waves, and pick safe, comfortable spots to anchor and float. This means you can relax, laugh, and enjoy the view without worry.

Fun at Crab Island

During Crab Island season, we make sure all the fun stuff is ready for you. The captain puts out floating chairs, a paddleboard, a basketball hoop, a floating lily pad, and other water toys. All you have to do is climb down the ladder and have a great time!

Relax and Enjoy the Ride

We want your cruise to be safe, easy, and full of good memories. With our careful planning and friendly crew, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your day on the water. Safety first, fun always!
