The excursion was so nice. It was reasonably priced, food/drinks were great, music was on point, and the crew was so attentive. We had so much fun meeting several couples from across the pond. We had great conversations, laughed, and danced. A wonderful time was had by all!

Leslie_S
The Boat and all staff were great. 1st group eating very rushed though because you will miss taking pictures of the sunset. The food was very good as was the open bar. The DJ/Musician was a absolutely awesome! Really set the atmosphere for the evening. Boat and bathroom was clean with plenty of seating. The views were pretty especially coming back. Had a amazing time and would highly recommend.

Paid Parking available directly in front of meeting point. Boat was clean. Staff friendly. Food was absolutely amazing. Seasoned fish on the buffet was the best I had while in Key West. Sunset was beautiful. We saw multiple dolphins. Met some nice people too. Well worth the trip.

Lovely evening on the water.

James_C, May 2026
We had a great time. The crew was very nice and the guy playing guitar was amazing. I would give it a five star, but the boat has nowhere for people to sit and everyone was left standing if you weren’t downstairs eating. A lot of the guests on the boat were older and I’m sure would’ve appreciated a place to sit down.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re so glad to hear you had a great time overall and enjoyed our friendly crew and the live music—our guitarist will definitely appreciate the compliment!

Unimpressive

Michael_C, May 2026
The DJ wanna be singer guitar player was horrific! Played a guitar over a CD of songs. WHY? Would have been better just to listen to the CD. He then tried to sing and make musical sounds with his voice. HOW DID YOU GET THIS JOB! Food was subpar for the price. The Captin and staff were engaging did their jobs very well. They were the best part of the cruise.

Atmosphere was great,...

Pleasant evening on the water

Eva_O, May 2026
Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. The ride was smooth, the weather beautiful and the sunset was beautiful. The staff was also amazing. Not so good: the lack of seating in the upper deck, and the division of the passengers into two dinner groups. When you first get on the boat, everyone is directed to the upper deck, which is open. There is only enough seating for about 10-15 people. The rest have to stand for about 45 minutes until the first dinner seating, which is downstairs. This is not great for elderly passengers or those with balance issues. I recommend stackable plastic chairs. The other issue is dining. If you wind up in the second seating group, you are not going to eat until around 8:00 p.m., so make sure you are not going on the trip with an empty stomach. The food was fairly tasty, although a bit dried out by the second seating. It may be a bit too spicy for sensitive stomachs. Overall, I would recommend the trip, but keep in mind the above limitations.

Response from Host, May 2026

Jim_K, May 2026
We had a great time on the sunset dinner cruise. I thought the cruise was going to actually go further than the main channel. We only circled back and forth in front of the harbor. The sunset was beautiful and the food was delicious. We had a wonderful time and we enjoyed the sunset cruise.

They ask you to arrive one hour early and there is no place to sit and wait. Long hot and crowded. No need to arrive early.

Charles_M, May 2026
The sunset view and orange moon was amazing. If you're drinking wine don't bother to pay for the premium package. Very limited wine offerings. For example, one Cabernet. Food was good.

It was pretty, there were way more people than I thought there would be. And there was not enough places to sit. I honestly dont think it was worth the money but it was nice enough. The sunset over the ocean was beautiful. The food was good. I'd recommend but I'd be honest with my review.
