Sunset Cruise

The cruise was very relaxing, and the crew was knowledgeable about the area. We did the sunset cruise and had a great time looking at dolphins and different birds in the area. The sunset was great over St. Augustine.

Fun afternoon on the water

Friendly crew, gave some history but allowed guests to enjoy the views without overwhelming them. Wine is not the best

Octoberfest beer tasting cruise was a hit

We actually did their Oktoberfest Beer tasting cruise, which was a new offering for October 2026. The crew members were dressed in their best German garbs. Rose was our beer guide and did a fabulous job describing each of the 7 beers we got to taste. 2 were German beers and 5 were Florida beers. We were given small glass beer mugs for the tastings and got to take them home with us. We had soft pretzel bites and 2 varieties of German sausage with sauces. We had German music and had fun doing a few German dances. It was a great evening even though the clouds were a bit threatening looking. But we stayed dry the entire time and had a wonderful experience. Would highly recommend the tour. We did get to see the usual St Augustine sights ( the historic fort and bridges). We also saw a handful of Roseate Spoonbills feeding in shallow water.

Enjoyable and Relaxing

We had a thoroughly enjoyable cruise. The crew was professional but entertaining. Rose, who did a majority of the narration, kept things moving at a nice pace. It was a relaxing start to the evening😊
