Captain Donnie has built a loyal following in Key West, and it's easy to see why. Reviewers consistently praise his deep knowledge of the local waterways, his easygoing personality, and his ability to take guests to spots that feel genuinely off the beaten path. The boat is a 23-foot center console, perfect for small groups who want a more personal experience than the big crowded charters offer. Sandbars and sunset cruises are the most popular trips, and both get glowing feedback. Donnie is flexible with scheduling, proactive about weather concerns, and communicates well before the trip so guests know exactly what to expect. One reviewer even mentioned he reached out days in advance to reschedule around bad weather, which says a lot about how he runs things. The boat is also dog-friendly, which is a nice bonus for travelers bringing pets along. With a perfect rating across dozens of reviews, there are no real concerns to flag here. This looks like a genuinely reliable option for anyone wanting to get out on the water in Key West.
We did a sunset cruise and had such a great time! Don was amazing and especially great with our kids (who were full of questions!). He even went back to fetch my daughter’s hat when she accidentally dropped it in the water. We enjoyed learning about the islands and then getting to enjoy the sunset. It was just fantastic. We will definitely use Stock Island Charters again next time we visit!
