Best and Easy Day on the water!

This was a GREAT time! No hassle…. Show up… get on the boat… the Captain put our adult bevies on ice and we got underway and 20 min later we were anchoring on the sand bar and soaking up the sun.. drinking those ice cold bevies! 10 out of 10 would do it again!

Very relaxing and enjoyable. Music was upbeat and entertaining.

Lots of fun. Not too crowded during the 10am -1 pm cruise. Captain and first hand were friendly and interactive with all of us.

Highlight of our trip

This boat trip was the highlight of our trip! It was by far the best cruise boat. The captains were absolutely amazing and beyond helpful the entire time. The floats they had were perfect. We had 3 kids and would recommend them to any and everyone. Great music selection as well.

Operator response

We are so glad you had a great cruise, and that we could help make your trip memorable! Thank you for sharing your great experience!
