Customer reviews, the arriva yacht charter experience was nothing but spectacular..

It gave us a beautiful day as we had a have a nice charcuterie board as our kids slashed around at crab island. Thank you again Captain and Crew for the lifetime memories aboard Arriva’s “Aquaholic” Yacht. I can see us being an Aquaholic after a few more trips.

Earl W Destin, FL

I chartered a Yacht with Arriva yacht charters for a family adventure when we were visiting in Destin Florida. The experience was over the top. I did the full blown adventure with food and beverages and It was one of the best experiences my family and I have ever had. Not to mention the weather was perfect and the water was beautiful. Cheers to Arriva for such a memorable time in our life!

Jim P Memphis, TN

Your title goes here.

An absolute day to remember! We were “wowed” from the time we stepped foot onto the immaculately kept “Lovin’ Life”! We had a beautiful day of sunshine, fun & crystal clear blue water, complete with the perfect dolphin sighting! Our Captain was punctual, knowledgeable and ensured we found the best swim spot at Crab Island for the kids to be comfortable and safe. 10/10 recommended, as this was one of the best days we have spent in Destin and we enjoyed the Marina Bar after our trip located in Sandestin where we departed from !

SG Tulsa, OK

Black Sheep Tequila has discovered a unique approach to not only demonstrate appreciation and recognition but also host private meetings with investors and key customers.  Arriva yacht charters are our secret weapon. The overly accommodating crew ensures that our every need is met.  And one of my favorites is that the yachts are spacious enough that while we are having our private meetings, our guests’ family and friends are enjoying other parts of the yacht and working on their tans!

Here’s What People are Saying

“The most MAGICAL experience that created a lifelong memory for my parents who were celebrating their 60th Wedding Anniversary. The boat is simply stunning, the online pictures do not convey the size and attention to elegant detail throughout the vessel. The captain and first mate were very attentive, friendly, and authentically engaged during our excursion. Overall, the entire experience was sensational, unforgettable, and perfect in every way.”

“If I could give 10 stars I would. I was planning my best friend’s bachelorette weekend and SO happy that I found them. The Bella Roma is truly the most beautiful boat I’ve ever seen or been on and the crew is AMAZING. We had the time of our lives and were so sad when the day was over. Easily the HIGHLIGHT of the bachelorette weekend. The space is clean, luxurious and spacious. I could not recommend them enough!!!!”

It is truly a pleasure doing business with this company. They went above and beyond to insure we had a great experience.

My son and I booked a trip through Destin Charter Service for June 6, 2019 on the AL-Lin. Since there was only two of us Jonelle put a group together and we had a great time.

Jonelle And crew are always my first call for charters. I always have a great trip on the boat she books for me.

Very fun! Our whole family enjoyed fishing!

Jason and Zack were awesome and very helpful. We will definitely do it again! The boat was very clean and kid friendly. We went home with so much fish! It was a really fun successful fishing day! A+++ for the Captain and his deck mate.

Very easy to work with. My review is for the customer service, as we had to cancel a booking.... They gave us no problem, I called and spoke to a friendly woman, and the refund was issued immediately. I appreciate that so much! Cant wait to book again when we are in Destin Florida! Thanks

My family and I were visiting from Texas, we wanted a nice boat ride around the water in Panama City Beach. We found this place and the prices were reasonable, but they made a huge deal because the capacity was 14. We had 13 and a baby, mind you he's a year old so they told us someone can't go. Okay so we rented a 4 hour jet ski ride and only for us to ride 2 hours the most and they don't do 'refunds' DONT RECOMMEND!

First of all, you have to rent a pontoon boat and hang out on Crab Island if you're in Ft. Walton or Destin. It is an experience of its own. Happy's Watersports was the most reasonably priced of the places we shopped. Their customer service game is top notch from check in and training to the fantastic deck hands. I was told by my wife, "We have to do this every time we come here from now on!"

So much fun!! Great service from Dylan & Bud! Would book this again. Highly recommend using them

The service was really great, we got to see some sea creatures just renting a pontoon and going out to crab island. It was fun, the wind made it a little cold so we did leave earlier but a less windy day and it would have been perfect.

Great service. Great employees. Great time. Everyone was super helpful and attentive. We had a great time out at Crab Island.

Justin and Joy were a pleasure to be boating with! super attentive and the music was at the exact right level! if you would like a relaxing time hanging out on the island, you will not be disappointed

bud and Dillon were great! They were very informative and kept the trip interesting!!

We booked a dolphin jet ski tour with these guys and didn't regret a single second!! We had a 2 hour tour and got to see about 10-15 dolphins. Our tour guide Carl was accommodating to all the guests and was super great about spotting and pointing out the dolphins. He also knew exactly where to look to find them. He also let us have some time just to play around on the jet skis for a bit. We will definitely be booking with these guys again!! Thanks for a memorable day!

This place is so awesome! We stumbled across this place to rent a pontoon which we didn't reserve ahead of time. They were so accommodating and their staff were very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Their staff member, Tyler, answered all our questions and even gave us his contact info Incase we had issues. They offer Military/Veteran's discount which we are so thankful that they acknowledge those who served. Prices are more affordable then other places. We will definitely use them again!
