Owner & Lead Captain
The people behind the paradise
Meet your captains & crew
More than drivers — they're naturalists, mariners, and storytellers who know the Ten Thousand Islands by heart. Sand Dollar is USCG licensed & insured, and every captain is local, seasoned, and the reason guests come back year after year.
Guests name our captains again and again in their reviews — read them on Tripadvisor.

Out on the water
Where you'll find us most days, at the wheel between Marco Island, Goodland and the Ten Thousand Islands.
