Charter A Private Boat
on Mother’s Day in Orlando

For the ultimate relaxing day, how about a little island hopping on a private boat tour? We treated my parents to a trip and we all absolutely loved the experience.

If you are spending Mother’s Day in Orlando and looking for something special, call to see what dates are available. If you are visiting at a later date, this is great gift option. Give Mom a gift card on Mother’s Day with details of the trip she’ll be taking.

Captain Todd from Private Island Charters offers a full day or 3 hours excursion off the Gulf Coast. It’s a couple of hours drive from Orlando, so plan to make it a whole day out.

The private charter boat takes up to 6 and you have the boat and Captain Todd all to yourself.

Take a packed lunch, load up on swimming gear and lather on the sun lotion. Captain Todd is a wealth of knowledge on the local area and wildlife. And you’ll get to explore remote islands and sandbars. You’ll have a pretty good chance of seeing dolphins playing in the waves too.

A total day of relaxation for Mom and lots of fun for all the family.
