BEACH HAVEN was amazing! So much to do! We had lunch on the beach at a place called Engleside Inn. It was so relaxing with our feet in the sand, the wind blowing and corn hole while we waited. We took our son to an ice cream shop called The Show Place Ice Cream Parlour-Starlight Theater. You MUST make a reservation. Great for ANY age. It was so much fun, entertaining and delicious! Fantasy Island rides, mini golf and great little shops across the street. I think it was called Bay Village! Don’t miss out on the ELEPHANT EARS at Crust Crum’s bakery! Oh my gosh… my mouth is watering! I had heard of these before BUT not like these! I should have bought 10!!! My husband tried the chowder at Bay Village Country Chowda and said it was the BEST he ever had! Can’t wait to go back!!

Capt. Carl and his crewmen from LBI Boat Tours provided our family an exceptional experience for a most emotional memorial, honoring my Mother by committing her ashes to sea, as she requested prior to her passing. Leading up to the event, Capt. Carl was responsive and highly communicative, asking detailed questions about our desires for the ceremony, and providing professionally-prepared scriptures which we modified for our family's unique needs. The day of the event, Capt. Carl was prepared to launch right on time with a vessel more than adequately large for our family of 11 with ample room to walk about and stretch our legs on our journey to the sea. He and the crew were highly knowledgeable, professional, and superb seamen, offering us a smooth ride in otherwise moderately choppy waters. What topped off our experience with LBI Boat Tours, was the immediate surprise we received following our trip... a signed certificate of my Mother's Commitment to Sea. This was a classy touch that solidified our opinion that LBI Boat Tours and Capt. Carl were the perfect crew for such an important moment in our lives. Price was not a significant factor in choosing LBI Boat Tours, but their rate was superb for the service we received. We offer the highest recommendation for this flawless experience.

We had a great time on LBI boat tours! Captain Tom and Max were wonderful! Captain Tom answered all of my questions leading up to it very quickly and was so accommodating for our group of 13 girls at my sister’s bachelorette party. The boat ride was very relaxed and we brought our own music, drinks and snacks—overall we had a blast! It was the perfect activity for a fun bachelorette weekend in LBI!

Captain Jake gave my family’s time slot to another group stating I did not send a $50 deposit. Through email exchange, we both discussed sending the deposit via Venmo was the best option. I did so the Sunday before our cruise for Tuesday evening. Jake and I discussed over the phone and said he did not see the Venmo transaction email confirmation, hence why the cruise was given to another group and nothing else could be done. I expressed my disappointment and asked how he planned to rectify the issue. He was clear that this wasn’t a business, but a “hobby”. He was arrogant, rude, and displayed aggressive characteristics. As a customer, it was poor customer service and would not recommend this activity to anyone.

Our family of 5 adults and 3 children booked a sunset cruise while on vacation. Booking and payment were super easy. Captain Tom and his first mate were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Due to COVID it was a private cruise (so there is a benefit to this whole mess!) The boat was clean and spacious. We brought drinks and snacks and danced with kids. A perfect evening! Would love to come back another time and book a daytime tour.

This is the second year in a row we have taken a tour with Captain Tom. It is a wonderful experience. You learn the history of this gorgeous place and see its real beauty. I took my son, his wife, and toddler aged grandchildren. The ride was lovely. I can't wait for next year--this is a new family tradition.

My family has had a house on LBI for about 25 years. With the current COVID situation we chose not to leave NJ this summer for vacation and do things we have never done before on and around the island we love so much. My mother had suggested LBI boat tours because she had heard about them. Tom lead us on a great tour showing us places that we have never seen on and around the island. Our family has never had a boat so the places that Tom took us to we're unseen, beautiful and interesting. We had no idea about the historical significance of Little Egg Inlet or what Reclam the Bay does though we have seen their stickers for a few years. Everyone on the trip from my mother to my children found Tom's knowledge to be very interesting and plentiful. Additionally, Tom is a very good at the controls of the boat. He didn't charge the other boats wake and the ride was very smooth whether in the bay or even out in the ocean. His boat is well maintained and super clean. I would recommend taking a trip with LBI boat tours whether it is your first visit to LBI or you have been here forever. We had a beautiful morning and my mother who is a year round resident couldn't have been more pleased that she suggested it.

Our family has been coming down to LBI for years and we had no idea what we were missing. Stumbled upon LBI Boat Tours as we were looking for ways to branch out this year. It was the perfect mix of fun and relaxation while we learned facts about lbi that we never knew. Captain Tom was great. Highly recommend!
