August 4, 2026Captain Christian was an incredible source of knowledge during our trip. He was able to guide us to spots where we caught multiple species of fish - including a shark! He was a total professional from start to finish and cared for me when I had a small bout of sea sickness. I was feeling embarrassed about it, but he absolutely never made me feel bad for a second and immediately took action to help get me back on track.So thankful for the experience we had today! We will definitely be back. I would absolutely recommend this captain to anyone looking to spend a day out on the water.

July 25, 2026If you are looking for a fun packed fishing adventure Jus Chillin is the right choice! We caught so many fish each we all lost count, and the same goes for different species. On top of that, this guy knows how to maneuver in the water like i’ve never seen before! It’s not a slow boring boat ride, it’s a really fun experience! He is also a really considerate and observant of each member of the group, and ENSURES everyone is having a good time! We had a member getting sea sick and captain made sure she felt okay and changed course so we could still have a great time and all have fun! Thank you so much Captain Christian!!!

June 24, 2026We had an amazing trip with our group, ranging in ages from 5 to 63. Two boats as we had 11 people, but stayed together when we were fishing and could talk back and forth. I preferred the smaller boats as more comfortable for fishing in my book. Both captains were wonderful with the kids as well with all the newbie questions, and made sure everyone was well and comfortable too. Very knowledgeable about the area and had answers to all our questions. Such fun and we would definitely use them again anytime! Everyone is still talking about that trip.

June 9, 2026Our trip was amazing. Kids weren’t too excited before we left on the trip but all had a blast and want to do it again. We all had such a great time. We were put on fish wherever we stopped and it couldn’t have been any better. Christian’s personality kept the kids having fun the entire time. Kids had so much fun, as did I, keeping track of their fish counts. We had fun stopping on a little island playing games he provided and caught fish there too! It was the best of both worlds. The kids were able to swim and we were able to fish. We will definitely book with him again.

June 7, 2026We had an amazing time on our fishing charter! Captain Christian was fantastic with my son, making sure he was involved throughout the entire trip. He put us on the fish quickly, shared helpful fishing techniques, and was patient, encouraging, and fun to be around. The highlight of the day was watching my son build confidence with every catch and even out-fish me! It turned into an unforgettable father-son adventure filled with great memories and plenty of laughs. If you're looking for a knowledgeable captain who works hard to find fish and creates a fun, family-friendly experience, I highly recommend booking a trip with him.

May 21, 2026I did a good bit of homework prior to booking this charter and I'm so grateful I did! We decided to go with Captain Christian for the 8 hour private island deal and I couldn't be happier. He was very friendly and approachable from the moment of meeting him. It was my husband and I with our 6 year old son on the trip. My son's first boat ride as well! Captain Christian was wonderful! Made us feel very comfortable and had a fun kid side which was perfect for us. We spent a good chunk of the day fishing, listening to music and just having good conversation. The island time was my favorite. My son was living his best life, finding cool shells, playing with his shovel/bucket set. Ended the day with my husband catching a shark! Oh....got to see dolphins and a sea turtle too!!! A wonderful day filled with great memories I'll cherish forever. Thank you Captain Christian for a great day! We will be back!

May 20, 2026My fiancée and I booked our first saltwater fishing trip, and it exceeded all expectations. Captain Christian was professional, friendly, and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. He took the time to teach us the basics, shared helpful tips, and made sure we were comfortable and successful on the water. Thanks to his guidance, we both caught fish and had an incredible time. It was a fun, memorable day, and we couldn't have asked for a better introduction to inshore fishing. We highly recommend Jus Chillin Charters to anyone visiting Daytona Beach. If we're back in the area, we'll definitely be booking another trip!
