Great way to explore the lakes and canals !

Fun day on the water with Captain Scott. Four hour tour of lakes and canal system within Winter Haven. Plenty of beautiful homes and sights to see. Good history of the area was also given. We saw gators and plenty of birds. We chose the Twisted Prop for our lunch stop- good pub grub and nice atmosphere. Boat was clean and well maintained.

So glad you enjoyed it. Hope to se you again

Highly recommend the Pontoon Lake Tour in Winter Haven!

We had a fantastic time on the Pontoon Lake Tour with our family for our daughter's birthday celebration. Captain Dave was super fun, friendly and knowledgeable. My daughter recently moved to Lakeland and plans to return with others.

Operator response

Happy birthday again! 30 is a great one. Many more to come. Jets make it an annual date.

Sun, history, wildlife, dog-friendly, and the most human-friendly boat captain I've ever met.

You should do this. Clean, friendly, and relaxing. We took the 4 hour lake tour. We called ahead and Dave was cool with us bringing our small dog and we all had a fantastic time. Boat was in excellent shape and we took a leisurely cruise that included history about the buildings and area as well as first-hand knowledge he has from being a long time resident. We saw multiple lakes and legoland (cypress gardens) and many other interesting things. Stopped for a lunch at one of the boat-up restaurants. Dave wasn't tearing around the lakes like a maniac. He cruised at a relaxing speed and stopped for wildlife and story telling. If you want maniac boating, he has a ski school and could probably arrange a speedy outing. Was a perfect day on the water.

And what a beautiful day we had with low humidity. Hopper to see you again

A lovely relaxing day with a knowledgeable host.

This was a low-key, pleasant day on the water. We stopped for lunch and enjoyed motoring around the lakes and hearing its history and what is happening now.

Operator response

Capt Scott knows more about this town than most. Glad you enjoyed it.

Will definitely be back

We went on a 5pm tour and it was just our family! Randy was our boat captain! He offered us waters and we had a little one with us and even put the shade up for us. He told us about the lakes, and the history of the area. We saw some beautiful birds!
