Overview

BYOB and bring your bathing suit — hop aboard Fort Lauderdale's most fun party boat cruise! Cruise past multi-million dollar yachts and mansions while our crew keeps the energy (and the jokes) going. Then your captain pulls into a lively sandbar spot packed with boats, ties up, and announces: "the pool is open!" We toss in the unicorn and flamingo floats, everyone jumps in to swim and float, and then it's back on board for a dance party all the way to the dock.

Bring whatever food and drinks you like (BYOB, no glass please) — we'll keep a community cooler of free bottled water on board too, because a Fort Lauderdale boat party is a marathon, not a sprint. There's a restroom on board and a crew that genuinely loves getting the party started.

Departures at 10am, 1pm, and 4pm include the sandbar swim stop. Our 7pm cruise skips the swim and instead cruises through Downtown Fort Lauderdale for sunset views.

Frequently Asked Questions (9)

Q: Will I get seasick on Fort Lauderdale Sightseeing Cruise with Sandbar Swim Stop?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
