Tampa CycleBoat Cruise: Party Boat with Captain & BYOB (Up to 16 Passengers)

What you'll do:

Experience Downtown Tampa from the water! Here in Tampa, you and your group of friends, family, or co-workers will board the boat from the docks at the Tampa Convention Center near the Sail Pavilion outdoor bar. We will take you on an incredible cruise along the Tampa Riverwalk, Curtis Hixon Park, the University of Tampa, the Straz Performing Arts Center, Julian B. Lane Park, and Water Works Park. The views of the city from the water are incredible, and the energy along the Riverwalk is palpable. You will make your halfway stop at the new and amazingly popular Armature Works. Enjoy an additional beverage or snack as you experience more of what downtown Tampa has to offer. Climb back aboard, reach in the cooler, and crank up the tunes as you cruise your way back to the heart of the city past the high rise buildings, parks, and restaurants that line the banks of the Hillsborough River.

Our CycleBoats have 10 pedal stations seated around a central bar and a large bench seat for non-pedalers or those who would like a break from pedaling. There is also plenty of room to stand up and walk around. Although we have 10 pedal stations, we can accommodate up to 16 passengers per Coast Guard regulations.

Why we love it for your party:

• Epic views (Cruise past Tampa’s best spots with stunning city views)
• Armature works stop (Enjoy drinks and snacks at this trendy hotspot!)
• Pedal party (Ten pedal stations around a central bar for maximum fun)
• Room for all (Seats up to 16 with space for non-pedalers to chill)
• BYOB & jams (Bring your drinks and pump up the music for a party on the water!)
