3 Knots Marine

Captain Pat was a great tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about the local history as well as Chesapeake Bay history and we learned a lot about the area that we didn't know before. He is also fun and spirited and made our trip very memorable. We saw some of the BEST sunsets ever!

Captain Pat was an amazing tour guide, historian and boat Captain. We chartered his boat from Crisfield to Tylerton for lunch and then on to Rhodes Point for our weekend stay. Going back home, we asked if he could take a small detour and show us one of the lighthouses in the Bay. Captain Pat was so accommodating and we stopped by Solomon’s Lump Lighthouse.

Best of all, he allowed a special passenger aboard, Skelly.

My mom and I had the absolute best time thanks to Adventure Smith Island and the amazing Captain Patrick! From the moment we met him, it felt like reconnecting with an old friend. He was full of warmth, humor, and genuine kindness which instantly put us at ease. This man truly has an infectious personality in the best way possible! He was professional and also went above and beyond to make sure our trip was perfectly tailored to us. We had the chance to ride on his historic ship named Jezabelle, that actually served in Vietnam, which added a whole new level of meaning to the experience. Throughout the ride, he shared fascinating stories and local history about the island. Our adventure took us to Tylerton Island, and then, in the most generous and spontaneous gesture, he took us over to Martin National Wildlife Refuge just because my mom mentioned she’d love to look for seashells. He even walked around with us showing us interesting things around the island all while collecting any debris that may have washed up. He really cares about the wildlife and the environment. My Mom has an injured knee, so when we were ready to leave he was thoughtful and ran all the way back to the boat and brought it over to us so we didn't have to walk any further. That kind of flexibility and care is something you don’t find every day. It was such a thoughtful detour, and one we’ll never forget. The whole day was relaxed and full of beautiful moments, we even ate lunch together at the Drum Point Market on Tylerton Island! Patrick made us feel like family and treated us with such kindness and generosity. We can not wait to go back and do this all again! If you're looking for a unique, heartfelt, and truly memorable experience, THIS IS IT. We can’t recommend Adventure Smith Island at 3 Knots Marine enough! Thank you, Captain Patrick, for giving us a day we will always treasure.
