You will get wet! We enjoyed the beginning with the narration of the million dollar homes which were within minutes from the port. The boat captain provided excellent background on the history of the area And was well versed on the celebrities who reside there. Once we got in to the open water, the speed increased which felt as if we were on a roller coast in the water. Very enjoyable and the group of 15 I was with enjoyed the experience overall. I would highly recommend this activity for visitors as well As natives who have yet to enjoy this enjoyable outing.

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.

Thieves!!!!

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.

We enjoyed!

Shaterica_B, Mar 2026
Very nice! Great hospitality as well, saw some things I haven’t seen so super worth it!😇 really nice sights and also enjoyable being able to speed up and see the water!💦

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you, Shaterica! So glad the speed boat cruise delivered some new sights and great hospitality. That combo of speed and scenery is hard to beat with Sea Rocket in Fort Lauderdale. Hope to see you back soon!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you, Brittany! So glad the captain and Dom made it a great ride. Hope to see you back on the water with Sea Rocket in Fort Lauderdale soon!

Do not book!

Rachelle_G, Feb 2026
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!

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!

Canceled tour

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.

Didn't happen

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.

They cancelled at the last minute. Didn't have enough participation. Then told me I would only get a partial refund.

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

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 can make those arrangements.

Disappointed

Brent_R, Oct 2025
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!

Beware of Scam Refund Needed

Kieva_G, Oct 2025
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

Do Not Use Third Party Website To Book!!

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.

Family fun

Ashley_S, Aug 2025
Everything started right on time . I brought my 12 year old and 3 year old . My oldest wished we had gone faster and my youngest ended up napping . I thought it was a fun time and it was well organized . Our trip wasn’t overcrowded so that made it better.

Canceled from operator

Trina_M, Jul 2025
Operator canceled due to not enough booked. Then I requested refund bc i leave tomorrow. They suggested a later tour however I can't because had plans after the original tour. They said they could only refund partial so I contacted viator bc they canceled. Not only did they cancel last minute I was charged an Uber cancelation fee bc i was in the Uber enroute.

Nice!

Debra_G, Jul 2025
The captain and the speed boat crew were very nice. The information and jokes were informative and hilarious! We really enjoyed it! The boat was clean and beautiful! The music was a mix and we loved it. They had to cancel our 3pm sailing and told us to call. We called and they offered to book for the Sunset tour. It was BEAUTIFUL! The captain said the waters looked choppy and a bit unsafe so decided not to take us for the “speed” part of the tour. I appreciate his judgement and for considering our safety. Although I was a tiny bit disappointed in the card nature dealt us to have us miss the main reason why we booked it we STILL enjoyed ourselves and would definitely book it again.

Really fun experience for the whole family!!! I’m a Dolphins fan so it was interesting to see Ryan Tannehill home when he was with the Dolphins

A Ride to Remember!

Cari_C, Jul 2025
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!
