The crew here consistently makes these trips memorable. Guests rave about captains and bartenders by name—Dana, Anna, Captain John, Linda, Todd, and many others get enthusiastic shoutouts for their energy and hospitality. They're great with kids, join in on the fun without being overbearing, and know the local waters well enough to share interesting stories about the area. The drinks flow freely, you can connect your own music, and some crews even bring a karaoke mic along for the ride. These floating tiki bars work well for all kinds of occasions. Bachelorette parties seem especially popular, but families with young children, friend groups, and birthday celebrations all report having a blast. Sunset cruises get particular praise, and many guests spot wild ponies or dolphins during their ride. The 90-minute trips apparently fly by fast. One review mentioned an uncomfortable experience with a bartender, but that's the only real complaint among overwhelmingly positive feedback. Most people leave wishing they'd booked more time.
