About Us


Paddle Out Adventures was founded by Captain Justin McGee in early 2013. Captain Justin worked in the Clearwater Municipal Marina for over 10 years and had the opportunity to start his own business. His vast knowledge of these waterways and local wildlife makes each tour enticing and educational.
Paddle Out Adventures is unique in the fact that the Captain will charter the guests; in a 30' Pontoon Adventure Boat, to a serene, safe and beautiful location where you can paddleboard or kayak and enjoy your own private outdoor adventure. Please feel free to check out our reviews and ratings online, we are very proud of them! Our customers have loved their experiences so much, they continue to come back time and time again.

Local Hot Spots

Here are a few places we think you should take the time to check out while you are in the area. The Baithouse is located about 50' away from our dock. 


Little Toot

The Little Toot is a dolphin sight seeing boat charted from an old Tug Boat.

‌If you want to see dolphins up close and personal, this is the best boat for the job. Dolphins love the tug boat wake, and will do crazy tricks for everyone to see.

Open since the 1940s, the Bait House Tackle & Tavern is located in the Marina on beautiful Clearwater Beach. We are proud to offer the freshest fish, highest quality tackle and gear, and some of the best food in the area. Our daily menu features locally caught seafood with an assortment of beer and wine.

This is a MUST for anyone in Clearwater. Captain Andrew is top-notch and an outstanding guide. This was the highlight of our 2021 Clearwater Beach vacation! My wife and I and our two daughters (13, 18) had a wonderful time. We kayaked in a very quiet cove and went to shore for a little beach time. Did some paddle-boarding and got see some dolphins playing and jumping out of the water. Andrew took and shared some pictures of us during the experience. This will be something that we will do every time that we visit Clearwater Beach.

Our family had a great experience during our 3 hour activity! Capt. Andrew was very professional, courteous, and helped us have a great time out on the water. We enjoyed a boat ride, paddle boarding, kayaking, and swimming in a secluded beach area which was beautiful and serene.

Great trip with Captain Andrew last Saturday! My husband and I appreciated Andrew letting us join another group at the last minute and we had so much fun Paddle Boarding and Kayaking. The islands that he took us to were beyond gorgeous, and we enjoyed Andrew’s stories along the way. We will be back, I’m sure.

We had never kayaked before. It was great! Captain Andrew was great. We saw dolphins, got some site seeing in and a little trivia about the area. The kayaking was great Captain Andrew made it very easy and since it was our first time launched and loaded from a little island to make it easier for us. We had so much fun. The pictures Captain Andrew sent us were great for or memories. He even gave us a great recommendation for dinner. Thank you for the great memories
