    This operation has built a stellar reputation through consistently excellent service across their jet ski rentals, airboat tours, and their popular Magic Bus bar crawls. The staff gets called out repeatedly by name—Captain Jamie earns praise for his encyclopedic knowledge of Outer Banks history and wildlife, while Shannon impresses with planning support and communication, and driver Nichole keeps groups safe and entertained. People genuinely love the personal touch here, with many becoming repeat customers year after year. The jet skis are brand new Sea-Doos that reviewers describe as fast and comfortable, and first-timers feel well supported by the friendly staff who take time to explain everything thoroughly. The airboat tours seem to be a particular highlight, offering great value especially at the 90-minute length, with opportunities to spot dolphins and learn about the local ecosystem. Groups of all sizes appreciate the seamless booking process and excellent communication. The overall vibe is professional yet warm, with staff who clearly go above and beyond to make each outing memorable.

    I usually go down to the Tiki Bar. It's called Mimi's Tiki Hut, and they have the best drinks and perfect view of all the boats coming in. Plus you can get a full menu. Go see Marshall and Lance, great bartenders!!
