WOW! The Just Get Wet Team is INCREDIBLE! Curious about getting into spearfishing? Want to become a freediver? Interested in the charter trip of a lifetime!? Just Get Wet is THE WAY TO GO! We took the Escaped out to San Clemente Island and had a BLAST! Chris is an expert captain who knows San Clemente Island inside and out, Gretchen is an incredible photographer and chef who kept us fueled and smiling, and Matt was an awesome deckhand always ready to help. They showed us stunning kelp forests, helped us land delicious fish, and made the whole trip unforgettable. Can’t recommend them enough!
