Great Excursion!

The sunset cruise was amazing! We enjoyed an hour and a half on the water, saw a spectacular sunset and then eventually a full moon. Captain James was very entertaining and Dave took great care of us. Highly recommend this excursion.

St. Augustine Must-Do

My family and I had an amazing time on the Red Boat Cruise on the sunset cruise. Captain Dave and Roy were absolutely excellent—friendly, welcoming, and made the experience so much fun from start to finish. The cruise was relaxing, entertaining, and a wonderful way to spend time together as a family. We truly enjoyed ourselves and made some great memories. If you’re visiting the area or looking for something fun to do with family or friends, I highly recommend checking them out. You won’t regret it!

Awesome trip!

We had a wonderful trip with Red Boat. The team made us feel welcomed and made the trip worth taking. The boat is in great condition. We traveled from the marina pass the fort, the bridge and the lighthouse, we even seen dolphins right off the boat. The captain angled the boat so everyone was able to see the sunset easily. Overall, the trip was amazing, despite the rain. It completed are great day for our vacation.

RedBoat Fun!!

What a great experience! Although we had a touch of rain, operators were ready with towels & had plenty of space under cover! Typical Florida weather-5-10 minutes, so all good! We still saw a fabulous sunset, dolphins & beautiful St. Augustine landmarks. This was my first time on RedBoat & it didn’t disappoint! Great value for $. 90 minutes was just right-other tours were 60 minutes & didn’t seem long enough! Captain was knowledgeable but not too talkative-played fun music in between landmarks.
