Complete the online waiver for each member of your group before arriving for your private boating lesson.
Bring water, sunscreen, a hat or sunglasses, and any snacks you want. A cooler is available on board. Apply spray sunscreen before boarding because it can make the boat slippery.
Bring your own drinks for the lesson, but leave glass bottles and red wine behind. Ice is available for purchase separately at the marina.

Our bachelorette trip with Tideline Tours was the highlight of our weekend! Captain Olivia made the entire experience unforgettable. She took us to a beautiful island that's only accessible by boat, where we hunted for shells and shark teeth and caught plenty of crabs. While we explored, she prepared an incredible beach boil so we could enjoy an amazing family-style meal together. She was so knowledgeable about the local wildlife and the surrounding landscape, which made the trip even more special. If you're looking for a unique, fun, and memorable adventure, we can't recommend Tideline Tours and Captain Olivia enough!
