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.
Trips are centered on a single product: the Private Luxury Pontoon Crab Island Charter. This experience focuses on launching from Destin and cruising to the Crab Island sandbar for swimming, relaxation, and social floating activities. Crab Island Guide Service positions its offering for private groups seeking a dedicated pontoon charter rather than shared or public boat rides.
As a local Destin operator, Crab Island Guide Service guides bookings and logistics for the private pontoon experience and ensures guests receive clear information about departure, return, and what to expect at the sandbar. The business emphasizes a private, group-focused format and a single luxury pontoon product for Crab Island visits. Prospective customers can expect a Destin-based provider that offers private access to the popular Crab Island sandbar and an emphasis on a private, luxury pontoon setting for a day on the water.
