EXCELLENT Based on 132 reviews Posted on Google AndreaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Captain Dave was the highlight to our trip to Ventura. We were able to make a last minute booking when most other boats were booked or too expensive. His trip was perfect for our family. We saw lots of birds and sea lions. And his knowledge of the harbor, sea life and fishing made for an interesting tour. He was super friendly and fun. What a great day!Posted on Google KevinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. BY FAR the BEST romantic experience!!!! Me and my fiancé booked a sunset boat ride for our anniversary and it was the best most intimate experience we’ve had ! Captain Dave makes your experience better by providing blankets, fun facts, & great jokes. If you are ever in the area I recommend 100% booking with Captain Dave !Posted on Google LeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have taken two boat tours of the harbor with Captain Dave. Both of them have been excellent. Captain Dave is knowledgeable of the area and gives great insight. He is also extremely accommodating and ensures each customer has an excellent experience. I recommend this tour without any reservation whatsoever. I know without any doubt you will also have a fantastic time. Thank you Captain Dave.Posted on Google MatthewTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

My sisters and I booked this harbor tour with our Dad to celebrate Father’s Day. Captain Dave showed us all the fun highlights of the Channel Island Harbor. He gave us many tips for other local adventures as well as sharing other fun boat tours he does. The boat was perfect, clean and comfortable! There was plenty of room to set up snacks as we motored through the channel. We will definitely be back, Thank you for such a beautiful trip Captain Dave!Posted on Google BiancaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great tour and great captain!
