This ride was not only a feeling of being on a roller coaster but was so enjoyable in other ways. Our captain was informative and HILARIOUS! His side captain was accommodating and well aware of his passengers safety. I will always recommend this ride to everyone! Getting wet was the best part!

This was a great way to get on the water and see the sights. It was a relatively smooth ride and when going fast had a great breeze. Relaxing and enjoyable. Ice cold drinks were available for purchase and there was a bit of a sun canopy for some of the seats to get shade. I took my kids (1, 7, & 8) and they all enjoyed it! Bonus we got some crazy windblown hairdos 😆
Response from Host, Jul 2026

This was basically a boat ride out into the ocean with a view of the beaches and hotels. Sightseeing excursion. You're in the sun the entire time, so take that into account if it's an issue. Staff were informative and friendly. Descent trip.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the scenery and found our crew to be friendly and informative. We appreciate you sharing your experience and hope to welcome you aboard again.

It was great Captain John was awesome as well music, it did go out for a bit, but he fixed it, also did get wet. If that’s what your looking for definitely will an ait more in back of the sea rocket. Id have to say parking is a little crazy, one person was 20 a car next car was 10 dollars an we were told to tell whoever was out there at ticket collect we were on sea rocket, she, was one rude, an two there should have better communication with the resort.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for your review! We're thrilled you had a great time with Captain John and enjoyed the ride. We also appreciate your feedback regarding parking and communication and will take it into consideration. We hope to see you again soon!

TOUR GUIDE said someone will be around for drinks.NO ONE COME AROUND... im requesting my money back because we did nothing but go in a circle and listen to bad jokes.

Allison_R, Apr 2026
They cancelled the Morning of due to lack of people. Never got a refund. Very disappointed in the last minute notification and lack of reimbursement:.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Hi Allison, we're truly sorry for the disappointment. Last-minute cancellations are never the experience we want for our guests in Fort Lauderdale. Refunds on Viator bookings can take up to two weeks to process, so it's possible yours is still in progress. Please reach out to us directly at Sea Rocket so we can look into your booking and make sure everything is resolved. We'd love the chance to make this right.
GregoryKirk, Apr 2026
We were ripped off!! Cancel last minute because they wanted more people but we wasted an uber ride and our time. And no refund yet. I will try to leave negative reviews everywhere!!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Hi Gregory, we're sorry to hear about your frustration. Our records show we sent a text and email at 10:29am notifying you of the cancellation before your 1pm trip. We always try to give as much notice as possible when a trip doesn't meet minimum passenger requirements. We're sorry if those messages didn't come through in time. Thank you for sharing your feedback.

DO NOT BOOK THIS!
Hard to rate when the tour operator cancels but you can’t get a refund.
At 11 am we get a text that the activity scheduled for 3 people ($139 US) was canceled by sea rockets. When we called to get a refund, we were told too bad you can’t get one.
Was told we needed to have purchased the trip cancellation insurance through viator… but the activity was booked for the next day- we were not going to cancel!!
This is a scam by the tour operator and viator.
Called the tour operator 3 times so far- and no refund. And we have not been able to get through to viator to get a refund.
Never again would I ever book a tour with this operator.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for sharing this, Rachelle, and we sincerely apologize for the frustration. When a trip is canceled on our end, refunds can always be processed once you give us a message back. Refunds through third party platforms like Viator can take up to 14 days to reflect back on your card after we approve them, and we understand how frustrating that wait can be. We hope you'll give Sea Rocket in Fort Lauderdale another chance!
Robert_M, Jan 2026
It's all about them, customer comes 2nd, no assistance to locate parking, no one at all on hand to make guests feel welcome at all
jacqueline_m, Jan 2026
it was a fun and entertaining time. I came with my boyfriend and I must say, it was fun and informative
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you for joining us and for the great review! We’re so happy to hear you and your boyfriend had a fun and entertaining time on our Fort Lauderdale sightseeing cruise. We’d love to welcome you back aboard again soon!
Winnie_S, Jan 2026
The operator canceled the tour on the same day of the tour. I called the operator to request a refund, but they said I have to contact Viator. I contacted Viator, & they said they have to contact the operator. I am still waiting for my refund. Based on other reviews, it appears this operator cancel their tours easily. It is better to book something else to ensure no disappointment, & left you with nothing to do.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear you had a disappointing experience with us. As with any outdoor activity, tours can occasionally be canceled due to factors like weather or participation requirements, sometimes on the day of the tour. When reservations are made through Viator, they collect the payment and process all refunds, and we notify Viator immediately when a tour is canceled so they can issue the refund. We understand how frustrating this can be and appreciate your patience as the refund is completed through their system.
Saimir_S, Dec 2025
It didn't happen. It was canceled do to weather, the capitan said. Sucks that we had to go all the way there and nothing happened.
Russell_F, Nov 2025
May cancel at the last minute if they don't have enough passengers. Then told me I'd only get a partial refund.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations. Our team works hard to provide a safe, fun, and memorable time for every guest, and it’s disappointing to know we fell short during your visit. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback, it helps us identify areas where we can improve both our communication and overall guest experience.
We’d be happy to arrange a complimentary trip for you. Please reach out to us at feedback@searocket.com

So we didn't have an experience. My husband and I were very disappointed. We were booked at 3:00, and asked to show up at 2:45. Well they sent a message close to take off time that the boat ride was cancelled due to lack of people. I asked a worker and she said the minimum is 20. I just don't understand why we weren't notified sooner. It would seem that if they don't have the number they need an hour or 2 before then cacel. Very disappointed!

I booked for 2 people for today October 6, 2025 and no one was there at the pick up spot and I didn't receive any email of company that boat ride was canceled. I want a full refund. I called customer service today and the representative said she would process my refund and email me the confirmation. That didn't happen. I was scammed out of $69.98 plus $45 for my Lyft ride going and coming from my resort we were staying at, Margaritaville in Hollywood Florida. We were going to take boat ride to celebrate my daughter's birthday. We traveled from Seattle, Washington. Very disappointed

Phil_H, Aug 2025
The trip was cancelled due to not enough bookings. Unknown at the time of booking is that Viator charges $30 if you book through them. So when Sea Rocket gave me a refund, it was minus the $30 Viator charges. Next time I will just book directly through the company and not these third party websites. Lesson learned.
Sutesh_B, Aug 2025
Great experience. Boat was very stable at all speeds. Exhilarating and fun . The water was beautiful and the staff was friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed it
Francois_L, Aug 2025
