What Our Customers Say About Us
★★★★★
5-Star Average Rating
Captain Kyle is very accommodating and very knowledgeable. Living here his whole life has given him the ability to know how to navigate the waterways, know when regular boat traffic is heavy or light, he watches weather carefully to ensure optimal conditions, and he knows all the great dolphin watching spots! He is very kind and felt like being with a friend. Went out of his way to make sure we had a great sunset photo and view. Highly recommend!!
★★★★★
Brooke P.
Captain Kyle was awesome! The wife and girls enjoyed the sunset tour so much that we came back for a full day after. We left out of Madeira Beach and headed down to Clearwater for lunch and some shopping. Kyles’s knowledge of the area is very apparent, and his stories will make you grin. You will never get closer to Dolphins unless you swim with them. Plus, you will visit some islands and sandbars that are breathtaking. I highly recommend taking some time out of your for this experience on the water – you will not regret it.

This was perfect for us! A lot more personal than all the bigger tour boats around. Being able to pick where we were going and be on our own time was great. Even had dolphins come right up to the boat so close we almost could have touched them.
Highly recommend!

Kyle was a great tour guide and boat Captain. It was our girls trip afternoon boat excursion. We were able to visit quite a few places-sand bar, marina bar, manatee siting and coast the surrounding areas. We brought a cooler, Kyle matched our music choice and we were able to lay in the sun while enjoying the boat. Easy pick up and drop off!

I can’t recommend Coastal Excursions enough! The sandbar tour was perfect for our family, and Captain Kyle ensured we had a fantastic time. The scenery was stunning, and we saw so much marine life!

What an absolutely amazing experience! I arranged a 4 hr trip for a proposal and Capt Kyle knocked it out of the park! It was perfect and we could not have asked for anything more. Capt. Kyle is a true professional, he went above and beyond to make it special. Book with him! No need to look anywhere else…

We did an excursion for my birthday and it was amazing. We saw dolphins went to sand bars and just cruised. I recommend this all the time everyone on the boat had such a good time that we want to do this once a month is the summer verses just for a special occasion.
