Privates Siesta Funship Adventure/Dolphin Cruise Sandbar Stops

We had such a great time on this trip—definitely a five-star experience! The boat was fantastic and had so many fun features. The kids absolutely loved the paddle board, lily pad, and especially the slide—it kept them entertained the entire time. The sandbar stop was a huge hit too, perfect for relaxing and letting the kids play. To top it all off, we even got to see a dolphin, which made the experience feel extra special. Everything was smooth, fun, and well done. Highly recommend for families looking for an easy, memorable outing!

Oh this was an amazing day; and the friends that came with me said that they were "officially blown away" with how great it was. We started by seeing all kinds of birds at a rookery with great photos of roseate spoonbills; then saw numerous dolphins up close and playing for about 30 minutes; then went to to beach and went down their fun slide, and finished up by seeing a mother and baby manatee! Loved everything!!!

This excursion was fantastic for our family of 4 (kids 11 & 15). We had 4 hours to do whatever we wanted on the water. The boat had everything noted in the description. There is a slide off the back, paddle board, cooler available, chairs to sit out on the sandbar when out exploring, all types of balls for kids to play (football, volleyball, softball, etc…). Cory and crew are extremely knowledgeable when it comes to Sarasota Bay. We learned about the wildlife that inhabits the islands and the history of real estate. Touring the perimeter of the bay and seeing the size of the houses and differences in architecture could have been an entire day alone. We docked on a sandbar and searched for little critters with fishing nets. We are so glad we booked this day trip as this was the highlight of our trip. I would highly recommend and will book again if we come back this way.

My two boys, wife, and I took a four hour tour with Corey and Barry and had a blast. We had a great time. They showed us some of the notable properties along the way and gave us some historical context. We saw lots of local fauna and wildlife from waterfowl to dolphins and even an aggregation of manatees! We docked at a beach and sat in the sand, went down the slide on the boat, hung out on the aqua lily pad, and floated around the boat. We then docked at a sand bar and Corey got in and led my kids on a little snorkel adventure. The crew was extremely affable and went out of their way to make the experience memorable. If you are in the area and looking for a similar boat tour, I definitely recommend.

This was absolutely worth every penny and then some. We had 4 people and it was a cloudy day with waters a little choppy. We couldn’t do the full tour but we still hung out on a sandbar, found little crabs and sand dollars and conchs. That was so neat. Took some great pics and our captain was right there in the water with us searching for shells and enjoying the sea life like kids. Phones away it was just great. Then we chugged on and anchored along another shore to enjoy the slide! Also lounged on the lily pad. Had our drinks got some spots of sun when it poked out from the clouds, listened to our music. The captains were very friendly and of course Cosmo! Sooo cute! Would do this again in a heartbeat. We did the 3 hour sandbar cruise. We also saw a few dolphins! It was a really fun time. Thanks for a memorable day to celebrate our daughter’s 21st birthdays!

Captain Joe and Barry were very informative and definitely knew the spots to go. They were very easy going. We informed them of what we wanted to do and we went.

So much fun in the funship! They had something for everyone (slides, paddle boats, sand toys, snorkeling, and a cute puppy! Captain Joe was a great guide!

We had a great time on our trip! Our girls LOVED Cosmo! Highly recommend if you a looking for a family friend activity!!!!

Captain Joe and Cosmo made our family weekend visit well worth it! From stopping by a beautiful sandbar to going down the slide and seeing dolphins, we all enjoyed ourselves. We highly recommend this tour and will be booking again next time we are in town. Book it, you will not be disappointed!

Greta experience! The slide and water toys were entertaining and very relaxing. Captain Joe was very nice and accommodating.
