About Us

Meet Our Crew!

Captain Dave, a true Florida native, has spent his life fishing and boating the very waters that our tours explore. With a deep love for Tampa Bay, he and his wife Nancy were inspired to create Latitudes Tours in 2016 after a vacation boat trip. Their shared passion for wildlife and the Ruskin area sparked the desire to offer others a chance to experience the beauty they cherish.

Nancy, our knowledgeable first mate, will captivate you with her expertise, offering a one-of-a-kind guided tour. As you journey through the waters, you’ll encounter Florida’s unique marine life and wildlife, all while learning fascinating historical tidbits about the region.

We are committed to providing every guest with an unforgettable experience. Whether you’re looking to explore the natural wonders of Tampa Bay on our popular river eco-tours, where you may spot manatees and dolphins, or prefer a relaxing lunch cruise or a romantic sunset dinner cruise, we have something for everyone. Book your own private charter for special occasions like weddings and birthdays and make memories that will last a lifetime.

Latitudes Tours is Consistently Rated 5 Stars on Google, Trip Advisor, Yelp, BBB, and Facebook!

Wonderful for locals with visitors

Captain Dave met us at the Marina as a favor while they had a cancellation and not a full boat he took us anyways. That meant a lot to our family since they were flying out the next day. It was a beautiful quiet experience and he was so knowledgeable. This was our third time using latitudes and will continue to use them.
