What to Expect on the Water
Your day starts at Mulligans restaurant - just park in their lot and look for the white gate on the left side. Follow the dock all the way down to slip #36 where Captain Sonny will be waiting with the boat prepped and ready. The Sebastian Inlet area is famous for its stunning sandbars and small barrier islands, and you'll get to see why locals consider this some of the best touring waters on Florida's east coast. The shallow, protected areas around the inlet create perfect conditions for anchoring up and enjoying the scenery. You might find yourselves at a secluded sandbar where you can walk around in knee-deep water, or pulled up next to one of the many small islands where the sand is soft and the views are endless. The Aquaholics team brings chairs, coolers, and anything else you need to make your time comfortable - they really do cater to your group's vibe.
Navigation & Island Hopping
Captain Sonny uses his local knowledge to read the tides and wind conditions, picking the best spots for your group each day. The boat is equipped with GPS and shallow-water navigation gear, which is crucial when you're touring around sandbars that shift with storms and tides. During your tour, you'll likely hit 2-3 different locations depending on conditions and what your group is feeling. Some days that means a long stop at a popular sandbar where other boaters gather for a social scene, other times it's a quiet island where your group has the whole place to yourselves. The captain keeps an eye on weather and water conditions throughout the tour, adjusting the route to make sure everyone stays comfortable and safe. The boat's shallow draft means you can get into areas that bigger vessels can't reach, giving you access to some truly pristine spots that feel like your own private paradise.

Wildlife You'll Encounter
While this isn't a fishing tour, the waters around Sebastian Inlet are teeming with marine life that adds to the whole experience. Dolphins are regular visitors to these shallow areas, especially during the warmer months when baitfish are thick in the inlet. You'll often see them hunting in small pods, and they're curious enough that they might check out your boat from a distance. Manatees love the warm, shallow waters around the sandbars, particularly during winter months when they seek refuge from cooler offshore temperatures. These gentle giants move slowly through the area, and spotting one always becomes a highlight of the tour. The bird life here is spectacular too - brown pelicans, osprey, and various herons and egrets use the small islands as feeding and resting areas. During certain times of year, you might even see sea turtles surfacing near the boat. The clear, shallow water means you can often spot stingrays gliding over the sandy bottom, and schools of small fish create silver flashes in the sunlight.
