For all ages! • 2 Hours
Crab Island Guide Service is a Destin, Florida-based operator specializing in private luxury pontoon charters to Crab Island. The company offers fully private excursions that transport guests from Destin’s waters to the shallow sandbar known locally as Crab Island, where groups can swim, anchor, and enjoy a day on the water.
