For Travelers
How do I book a trip on Find Boat Trips?
Browse by category — Tour Boat Operators, Fishing Charters, Boat Rentals, Yacht Charters, or Captains for Hire — then search by your city or location. That’ll bring up every captain and business offering that activity in your area, so you can compare listings and book directly through the site.
How do I know an operator is legitimate?
Every captain on Find Boat Trips holds a valid captain’s license. And if they operate a company — a tour boat business, charter service, yacht, or rental fleet — they’ve also provided proof of insurance.
What kinds of trips can I find here?
Everything from a quick two-hour sunset cruise to a multi-day offshore charter, and everything in between — budget-friendly outings and bigger splurge trips alike. Whatever kind of day on the water you’re after, there’s likely an operator here for it.

What’s your cancellation and refund policy?
Cancellation terms can vary by operator and trip type. Check the specific listing for details, and see our Refunds and Termination Policy page for the platform’s general terms.
For Captains & Operators
How do I list my business on Find Boat Trips?
Getting started is easy — head to the Become an Operator page and fill out the application with your business details. From there, we’ll ask for a few documents, like your captain’s license, boat registration, and proof of insurance if you run a company, so we can verify everything and get your listing approved.
Is there a cost to list my services?
Details on fees and listing options are covered during the operator sign-up process.
How do I manage my bookings once I’m listed?
Once approved, you’ll have access to your own operator dashboard to manage your listings, availability, and bookings directly.
Why do you require documentation like a license and insurance?
It keeps the platform trustworthy for customers, without making it complicated for good operators to get listed. Depending on how you operate, that can mean a captain’s license, vessel registration, or proof of insurance — just enough documentation to confirm you’re legitimate before your listing goes live.
What if I have more questions?
Reach out through the chat box, and we’ll get you the answers you need. If you still need more help after that, you can email us at support@findboattrips.com.
