About Marcelino
“Hi, I’m Captain Marcelino. I’ve been a proud Pinellas resident for over twenty-four years, and I love spending time on the water with my family and friends. Now, as a captain, I get to share those same experiences with others and create unforgettable memories while showcasing the beauty of The Tampa Bay and The Gulf. With a background in marine biology and environmental science, I’ve developed a deep passion and respect for the ocean and marine life. Today, I’m a licensed Six-Pack Captain with first aid and CPR certifications, dedicated to providing safe, fun, and meaningful trips on the water. My goal is to provide both locals and travelers with an authentic experience that showcases the stunning waters of our area and all that they have to offer.”

Had a group of 6 that went out with Marcelino. The trip was a blast and we had so much fun hanging out at Shell Key and John’s Pass. We would definitely book with him again!

I honestly could not recommend Marcelino enough. If you are coming to Tampa and want to charter a boat for the day, book with him!
He will make sure you get exactly what you want out of your time on the water. He’s a great personality and a top laugh too!
Thank you very much sir!

Marcelino was an awesome boat captain! We had such a fun day on the water. He was very knowledgeable of the best areas to visit and was super friendly throughout the trip. We enjoyed spending the day with him and will definitely book him and his boat again!

I had an amazing time! I was the only passenger on the boat and Marcelino was so fabulous and had a great conversation the entire time! The boat was sooo comfy and new! Can't wait to book again! <3
