We had a fantastic time on our sunset cruise! Our captain, Noel, was an outstanding guide- he was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and did a great job mixing in exposure to natural beauty, wildlife, and architecture along our route. The pontoon boat was very comfortable and it does have some covered areas to provide shade if members of your party would want that. I would highly recommend this experience, and again my hat off to Noel who made it that much more enjoyable!

The cruise was so relaxing! The captain played beautiful music and showed us the luxury homes on the water. We also saw dolphins and pelicans. The sunset was gorgeous. The captain was very capable and very friendly. It was a lovely experience with my daughters!

Our 2-hour sunset tour of St. Pete was just perfect! Captain Noel was very knowledgeable about the area - from the rescue of a brown pelican - to the beautiful waterfront homes and damage from the hurricanes. Easy to find, boat was comfortable and background music added just the right touch. Highly recommend- just what we were looking for.!

Very nice leisurely cruise to watch the sunset and then back to Tierra Verde. Are Captain Noel was very knowledgeable and safety was primary concern in addition to interesting information on our cruise around to watch the sunset

The entire experience was awesome! Our Captain was so informative about the surrounding area and the wildlife. I liked the fact that there were only 6 people on the boat.

I liked the fact that there were only 6 passengers on this boat. I was able to freely ask Captain Troy several questions and I learned so much from him.
