What a beautiful experience. The views were wonderful and the staff was awesome. Lots of great photos and very informative.
Very enjoyable & informative! Great staff! Would highly recommend! Lots of birthdays and anniversary celebrations onboard! Fun time!
We really enjoyed this sunset cruise. Even though there was no music on board it was a very pleasant and worthwhile sunset cruise. The tour director was very knowledgeable about the area and had a great sense of humor.
It was done safely and on time. It was informative and the crew was great. Despite the rain it was still a nice trip.
Lovely pontoon boat ride in calm waters at sunset. We rode past the iconic places such as the lighthouse, fort and bridge of Lions. Party boat music and drinks were made available. Crew on board were polite and engaging. Only downside to trip was when alarms went off and crew seemed to ignore it. Eventually, the engine shut down completely and we lost both engine and electric at night with a thunderstorm quickly approaching. Although the engine outage was only for a few minutes, we puttered into the marina without any navigational safety lighting. Since we were onboard with our elderly parents, we did have concern about their safety if extraordinary measures were required. Please keep up with the maintenance of your fleet!
Beautiful trip with calm waters, cool breeze, small bar that allowed a tab, a few Dolphins, and lots of birds. Could not hear the commentary very well because of chatter from others.
We had a wonderful time. The staff was great and the trip was very relaxing. Highly recommend. Very nice time.

Thanks for the five stars! See you next time.
It was good but I wish we would’ve had a little bit more history! Also I thought they would’ve pointed out the lighthouse turning on!!

Calm waters, enchanting history, corny humor, meeting new people, beautiful cruise. I would recommend the sunset as a must do in St. Augustine.
The view is beautiful. The staff members are friendly and fun. And the overall experience is relaxing.
It was spectacular, we have done other tours, and can say this was top notch. The commentary was excellent. The boat was very clean and very nice.
Amazing ride, jokes, conversation and hospitality from the whole crew. Learned so much on this trip even though we've lived here for years. The sunset was beautiful and got to see dolphins!
This was a beautiful experience! Not only did we have gorgeous views of St. Augustine and the sunset, but we had wonderful tour guides. From the drinks, to the music, and even a dolphin appearance.. It was a night to remember!
The sunset cruise is a perfect way to end a
day in St. Augustine. It was so relaxing and the views were absolutely stunning! The crew was friendly, funny and informative. We even got to see some dolphins!
Safe and stress free. The Captain and crew were fantastic. The captain move the ship around so that we were able to get great photos. Very thoughtful.
We had a wonderful times yhanks to the amazing crew. Even though mother nature didnt corporate with a the sunset (lots of clouds)- she made up for it with allowing us to see a LOT of dolphins (they were all around us). Highly recommend this trip.
Excellent value for the money. Nice experience and very good crew. Informative guide with excellent learning points.
Great information about local history and the dolphins, including seeing them play in the water. The adults only tour was magical. Would love to do this again.
We did the sunset Eco Cruise with Kelly and Captain Kevin and highly recommend! They are both so friendly and knowledgeable. The trip was relaxing, fun and we learned a few things about the local ecosystem - even saw dolphins playing right next to the boat.
I am often in St Augustine and regularly book this or the afternoon tour. I love it everytime! Marcel is so incredibly knowledgeable.
Very enjoyable boat ride at sunset. First mate was informative. Beautiful night and it is the perfect amount of time. Not to short or to long.
Lovely evening for a sunset cruise. Our hosts were pleasant and informative. Although there were a lot of clouds, we were able to enjoy how the sun set behind them. It was really quite beautiful. And we did see several pods of dolphins just as we were heading back at the end of the evening. That was the icing on the cake for me.
Very nice cruise! The sunset was beautiful. The boat clean and comfortable. The crew very friendly and attentive. Would recommend!
Wonderful experience with my family! Great time had by all!! Crew was amazing and very knowledgeable.
Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Beautiful evening and sunset was spectacular. Saw lots of manatees and dolphins.
