See What Others Are Saying

My family and I just went scalloping with Red Ed’s Adventure and can’t say enough good things about Captain Ed and Bo. Both captains were professional, kind and very helpful since some of us had never scalloped before. They were both great with kids and made us all feel very safe. We would all highly recommend using this charter and we will definitely be using them again in the future. - Erin Sanderson

Had a blast today! Captain Red was extremely knowledgeable of the area and pointed out many historical sights along the way to get to the scalloping area. He has a nice boat too that rides really well. We arrived at our spot, and he explained the best way to grab the scallops and what we should be looking for to find them. The underwater "Easter Egg Hunt" began. In a matter of minutes we were able to find some. It was pure excitement for everyone. We highly recommended you take one of Capt. Red Ed's Adventures, you will not regret it. - Haus

Scalloped a few times with Captain Red Ed, always a great time, got our limit each time and enjoyed the ride out while he was telling us about Old Homosassa. Highly recommend fishing or scalloping with the Captain! - Beth Buxton
