Great atmosphere! Wonderful staff and captain! Food was awesome! Rum punch was yummy and the server never let it be empty.

It is everything they say it is. Went out for the afternoon trip. Food was great. Drinks were good and the brows we saw priceless. We would do again if we are here. Highly recommend

I was on the luncheon cruise and it was enjoyable. We had a fine lunch with a good variety of buffet choices, drinks, dolphins and a pleasant cruise around the inter coastal. Not sure what the night cruise is like but “party” is a bit of a stretch for the lunch cruise. It was truly enjoyable, but “party?” …not so much.

If you’re looking for load music, dancing and mediocre food this is the boat for you.
No scenic history shared. Just music and dancing and premade drinks.
More of a cruise around and not so much of a tour.

The hospitality was great. The food was good. We were greeted by friendly staff and enjoyed the cruise
Lin_C, Apr 2026
Great food! Great views! Great DJ!
Staff were friendly, and the ENTIRE experience was a vibe. We came to celebrate a milestone birthday & was very happy with our choice.

We treated our adult ‘kids’ to a dinner cruise on the Calypso Queen on a gorgeous Wednesday evening. Every aspect was very pleasant ~ from being greeted on the gangway by the Captain, being served by Kim who treated us like family, the efficiency of the buffet, special acknowledgments of our son’s & daughter-in-law’s 2nd wedding anniversary, the music, friendly all-age group passengers, the amazing water and sunset views, and the phenomenal weather!!! Things we were concerned about like traffic delays due to active construction, limited parking, and long walks to and from the parking lot to the marina never materialized! Can’t ask for better than what we experienced!! Thank you for a wonderful evening!

The food was barely warm. Not enough variety and it didn’t taste great. Dessert not included. The rum punch tasted like water with coloring. Staff was very nice and it was clean. Go for the ride but not for the buffet.
Jenel_H, Apr 2026
The staff on the boat were very helpful and kind. The food was really good and the views from the boat were lovely. The music was a little loud for a family atmosphere but everyone danced and had a great time!
Mirna_V, Apr 2026
The food is surprisingly delicious. There is a wide range of items to eat that are kid, friendly, and flavorful. I have been doing this cruise for the last five years during spring break and it’s one of the highlights of our trip.
Neal_S, Apr 2026
Spent 2hrs on the water around Clearwater Harbour. Saw a few dolphins. Saw a beautiful sunset over the Gulf between Sand Key and Clearwater Beach. Buffet food was very good!
Rachel_B, Apr 2026
You do have to go to the ticket station next to the boat to get paper tickets even though you have a QR code. The dinner was amazing, service was great, we all had fun dancing, seeing the sunset, the beautiful views. Great experience!
Rita_C, Apr 2026
Arrive early since parking can be an issue but the. Cruise itself was wonderful. The staff was great and the food was delicious
Kathleen_P, Mar 2026
The food is amazing and we got to see lots of dolphins. Many facts were given by the captain. Well worth the money
linda_f, Mar 2026

Julie_K, Mar 2026
The food was great, beautiful scenery along the way and fun dancing. Wonderful staff made it a great ex[erience.
Dorika_S, Mar 2026
We didn’t make it, there was a cancellation on the flight . So the new flight and traffic made us miss it..
Dustin_S, Mar 2026
Was a great time. Worth the price for sure. Only complaint is they put the food away a bit soon in my opinion. For an all you can eat it should stay open longer. Other than that it was a blast!
Felicia_W, Mar 2026
Not at all what we expected. Small buffet with a random assortment of food. Got off before the boat left the dock
Kathleen_S, Mar 2026
We are here in Clearwater for the Phillies Spring Training games. We spent a day on the beautiful beach one day and today the weather was windy and overcast. The Calypso Queen boat was a great idea as it was enclosed and they had a fantastic buffet. All beer, wine and rum punch (sodas, too) were included. I have to say that the food was so much better than I expected for the price. We highly recommend !!!!
Maryann_R, Mar 2026
We had a wonderful time on the boat cruise! The food was great and the staff were all so friendly and attentive. It made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!
Patricia_B, Mar 2026
Kim at bar is amazing. Food was ok. My family loved it. Older boat but good for the most part. It started on time which I love.
enid_c, Mar 2026
The food was great..... like amazing.... but the DJ was terrible, in addition she catered to one specific ethnicity group's music, which I don't have problem with, but there were more ethnicities in the dinner cruise. Not to mentioned, the system was acting up so it was terrible.
The food and my company were great, we were hoping to dance and we were not able to!!!
Anthony_C, Mar 2026
The staff at as top notch and very friendly. The food was pleasantly surprisingly good. My whole family had a great time. You could have eaten and drank as much as you wanted. The views from the back deck were unreal. I would do it again.
Sarah_T, Mar 2026
The buffet was fabulous, dolphins were cute & Carlos was great!! We really enjoyed the experience!!!
JON_D, Mar 2026
Honestly you never know what to expect even it comes to buffets on a boat trip, but the food was actually pretty damn good, service was excellent, highly recommend!
Jennifer_H, Mar 2026
Have done this trip several times and had a great time . This time however the DJ forgot to plug in computer and it died . She literally held a mic to her phone for music . Not sure I will book again
Richard_B, Mar 2026
Parking is impossible which ruined the experience. Best view of sunset wasn’t taken. Stationary to long.
