This place is the best and the boats are great, they are comfortable and are easy to drive. Me and my family had a great time driving around the ocean and seeing all the tourists spots.

Great customer service, the boats were clean and readily available. Easy to self operate. Would rent from them again.

Ok. Search NO further for a rental boat company in the Destin area. Lee is the manager here and he WILL not do you wrong. I booked ahead of time for a rental that started at 1:30.
