Awesome service from the employees to the equipment!
We rented a pontoon boat for 4 hours and we actually got there about an hour too early and they let us get on the boat as soon as we got there anyway(basically got an extra hour for no extra charge). All staff was super nice and helpful with any questions we had. Boats are fairly new and in very good condition and well maintained. They were also the cheapest price compared to other places we had called. Definitely will be coming back next time we are back in Destin!
