"If I could give them 100 stars out of 5, I absolutely would! 🌊🐠 From the moment we arrived, Captain John made us feel like VIP guests on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Every detail was handled with professionalism, warmth, and genuine passion for the ocean. The equipment was spotless and top-notch, and safety was clearly a priority — but what really blew me away was how knowledgeable and enthusiastic Captain John is. Captain John didn’t just take us snorkeling — He opened up an entirely new world beneath the waves. We swam among vibrant coral gardens, schools of tropical fish that shimmered like living rainbows, and even spotted a Dolphins gliding gracefully by. John shared fascinating facts about the marine life and local ecosystem, making the whole experience both magical and educational. His energy was contagious, his humor kept everyone smiling, and his love for the sea made this trip unforgettable. I’ve done snorkeling excursions in other parts of the world, but nothing compares to the level of care, fun, and sheer wonder this team delivers. If you’re visiting Bradenton, Florida or are near by town, and are even thinking about exploring the ocean — stop searching. Book with this company immediately. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned diver, captain John will make you fall in love with the sea all over again. I’m already planning my next trip with him. ⭐ 100 out of 5 stars — the absolute BEST snorkeling experience ever!"
"Went out for a 6 hour sandbar tour with Captain Scott today. We had so much fun! He tailored the trip to what we wanted to do. We will definitely be booking with Centaur from now on! Thanks for a great day on the water Captain Scott!"
"We cannot say enough great things about Centaur Adventures and Captain Jon!! We had the best day adventuring into areas we have never seen before. The kids (and adults) enjoyed the snorkeling and found so many great shells! If you are at all thinking about booking a tour, DO IT! Our only regret is that we only booked a 4 hour tour. Next time we plan to do an entire day!"

"We had exactly the kind of relaxing 3 hour trip we were hoping for, with a great mix of fun and downtime. Andrew was awesome, with a friendly personality and a super knowledgeable approach that made the whole experience even better. The boat itself was very comfortable, which made it easy to just sit back and enjoy the ride. With all the choices out there, I am so glad we came across Centaur Adventures. We will definitely be back next year."
"If your in this area, rent a boat with these guys. This was by far the best part of our trip! Captain Andrew went above and beyond to make sure we experienced everything we wanted to experience and some things we didn't even know we wanted to experience! He s very knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife. Do yourself a favor and do a sunset ride, the beauty is unmatched!! Would give 10 stars if I could!"
"We had a blast. Captain Sully was very knowledgeable and accommodating to my elderly father. We will be back next year"

Captain Andrew
"A lifelong Floridian, I proudly call the waters around Anna Maria Island and Cortez Village home. Raised in a commercial fishing family, I developed a deep respect for the Gulf, its traditions, and the hardworking coastal lifestyle, along with an intimate knowledge of these waters.
For nearly a decade, I’ve held my Captain’s credentials, turning that passion into a profession. I specialize in creating memorable experiences on the water, including dolphin tours, Egmont Key snorkeling, shark tooth excursions, and sunset cruises, all focused on safety, education, and an authentic connection to Florida’s marine environment."
Captain Dave
"I earned my Captain’s License in 2024 and currently work for a private members only boat club in Bradenton, Florida, where I’ve served as a dockmaster for the past five years. Working around boats every day has only strengthened my passion for life on the water.
Boating has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I enjoy helping guests create unforgettable memories during their time out on the water."
Captain Rickey
"I’m a full time firefighter and nearly a full time boat captain who truly loves being on the water, both on and off the job. Boating has always been a passion of mine, and I enjoy sharing that experience with others every chance I get.
Whether it’s a relaxing cruise or an adventure filled day exploring the coast, I take pride in creating a safe, enjoyable experience for everyone aboard."
Captain Justin
"I’m a 7th generation Floridian operating out of John’s Pass, FL, serving waters from John’s Pass down to Sarasota. I spent 18 years conducting water rescue operations across Pinellas and Manatee County before transitioning into private charters as a U.S. Coast Guard Master Captain.
With deep local knowledge and decades on the water, I’m here to make sure your boat day explores some of the very best destinations Anna Maria Island has to offer."
Marc Lacasse
Founder
"I'm Marc, a Veteran and USCG-certified founder of this local boat charter here on beautiful Anna Maria Island. I've always had a deep love for the ocean and a strong appreciation for Florida’s natural beauty. After years of boating as a hobby, I turned my passion into a business built on fun, safety, and unforgettable experiences. I’m thrilled to help make your time on the water truly special!"
