Booking couldn’t have been easier. We rented a pontoon from Jeff which was equipped with everything you’d need for the day…sans your personal items. Boat was in great shape and ran flawlessly. Jeff was very attentive and knew his stuff. All in all it made for a great day on the water and I now have his contact info saved for future rentals. Highly recommend Little Philly!

We had an amazing experience with our family! The boat was beautiful, and we truly enjoyed our day on the water. We’re very grateful to Jeff for his kindness, excellent service, and for always staying in touch with us to make sure everything was going well throughout the entire experience.
Highly recommended! We would definitely rent from him again for another family adventure. 🚤❤️

Rented the 26' pontoon and u was perfect for 8 people. Room to move around. 6hrs was plenty of time to do nothing but relax and soak in the gulf. Will do it again. Even saw dolphins playing around. Hang around the bait boats and you'll see them too.

We had an amazing experience renting a boat from Jeff! He was incredibly hospitable, responsive, and kept great communication throughout, even monitoring the weather to ensure a smooth and comfortable trip.
Jeff also provided excellent recommendations for dolphin spotting, sandbars, and waterfront restaurants, which made our day even more enjoyable.
His pricing is very fair for the high level of service and personal attention he provides. We would 100% rent from Jeff again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great boat rental experience!

I surprised my bestie with a boat day this past weekend as a celebration, and we had the most incredible day. Right from the beginning, Jeff responded quickly and answered all of my questions. All add-ons were included in the boat rental, which isn't the case with any other rentals that I read through. Most of them charge $40 for the floating mat, $20 for a cooler, $40 for snorkeling gear etc. All of these items were included in our price of the boat rental for the day, which was awesome and we used all of them! Jeff sent me a list of so many cool places to check out like sand bars and places to dock the boat and explore. He updated us on any weather-related issues we may have run into and was available all day for any concerns or questions we had. It was my first time renting a boat and being out on the water without a captain and we had such an easy and relaxing day, and I felt safe and assured that we weren't just going to be stranded or alone if something happened (LOL). We will absolutely be renting from Little Philly Sea Adventures and doing buisness with Jeff again in the future. Thank you so much for such an awesome experience. It was 10/10, I have no complaints at all!
