We’re COVID Careful
We take COVID precautions very seriously. Every inch of the boat is cleaned before and after our bookings, so you enter a safe and germ-free environment. We also provide hand sanitizer if required and keep our groups private and to a minimum – so it’s just your bubble and the captain.
Beaches Are Open and Free!
Beaches are another great option for fresh air, relaxation and fun.
The beaches throughout St Pete and Clearwater are open, with parking lots and restrooms available too.
The CDC recommends keeping six feet or more between other family groups, but with no need to wear a mask, this is a great opportunity for you to sit back and relax, or hit the water.
