Reviews for Island Time Boat Cruise in Fort Lauderdale with Sandbar Swim and Insta-Worthy Floaties (BYOB)

Literally the BEST time! I had booked them thru the batch app and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. Captain Hunter was so funny and made the entire 4 hours so fun! (It also helped that I have a great group of friends but besides that fact lol) You can bring your own drinks and snacks which is awesome! You can even bring your own floats if you want too as well! (Not needed tho bc they proved floats for you!) Hunter even sliced his finger open and took one for the team because any other captain would have been like “let’s wrap it up I’m gushing blood we gotta go” but Hunter stuck it out like a champ and 3 out of the 7 guests on boards are registered nurses so it worked to his advantage!!!

We had an absolute blast on Monday, November 17th with Michael and Ryan! We weren’t sure what to expect for a Monday at 1:00 pm, but even with a small group of eight (five from our party), the party vibes were there from the start. Michael and Ryan played the perfect music, kept the energy up, and were incredibly friendly and engaging the entire time. This experience is BYOB, but they offered to stop at one of the shops in the marina if everyone agreed, so it was great to get a snack and more alcohol if needed. The marina had a bar, so we bought some Jell-O shots to bring back onto the boat :) The boat itself was well-equipped with cold water, a bathroom, floaties, and even a football and frisbee for when we were out in the water. We highly, highly recommend this boating company and will definitely be back! :)

Absolutely had a ball!!! My friend and I went on the sunset cruise and it was sooooo much fun! The weather was absolutely beautiful. The DJ was playing some awesome much and the scenery was to die for. I will DEFINITELY recommend for you to take this cruise. The crew was friendly and before we got on the boat they hosed and wiped down everything before we were able to get on. I liked and appreciated that a lot! ENJOYED!!

John and splash were amazing boat hosts!! We had such an amazing time with the kiddos! Will definitely book with them next time I’m in Fort Lauderdale!

WOW. I don’t even know where to begin. I booked this party boat for my sisters bachelorette party and it was hands down the most fun day of all our lives. YOU MUST CHOOSE HUNTER AS YOUR CAPTAIN!! This boat ride would have not been the same without him. His sense of humour, knowledge of our safety and the area, and of course his dance moves made this entire day 10000x better. We had an absolute blast and so did he!! Thank you Hunter for making our party experience the best it could’ve been, for being super professional and respectful while still being able to party with us. We made memories that will last forever. He gave us an amazing tour of all the mansions and yachts, and stopped to swim for a bit. We drove around and stopped at a bar on the water to grab some drinks. He got shrimp for us to feed fish and that was super fun as well! You would think this review is paid but I promise it’s not. Whatever you are paying this man, he needs more. WE LOVE HUNTER!!! If I’m ever back in town with the girls, we are 10000% coming back here. THANK YOU ❤️

Captain Ross was amazing!! He went above and beyond and we had a blast!! My one and only complaint is the boat.. Captain Ross deserves an upgrade, he was the best!! The boat, not so much, the seats were torn, and caving in!! The tour itself exceeded our expectations! The condition of the boat was disappointing!! Would definitely recommend!!

Jennifer was a fantastic Captain. I’m very happy we chose Jennifer as our captain. Awesome experience, lots of interesting pieces of information about Fort Lauderdale. A must do for an intimate experience with up to 12 of your closest friends… we had a blast

Our boat ride with Staying Afloat was great! It was my friends Bachelorette party and there were 8 of us! Tyler was a great Captain, keeping the ride fun but staying professional. We had lots of time at the sandbar and I think we all would have loved to stay longer! Thanks for a great time!

We had Ross as our captain! We were celebrating my friend’s bachelorette trip! He was awesome and super funny! It was a great time and everyone had the best time! Will definitely be recommending him in the future!!

Ross and John were awesome!! The sunset boat ride was absolutely beautiful and very romantic. They were also very entertaining and funny with their commentary. I really enjoyed seeing all the yachts and mansions on millionaires row.

We had an unforgettable time on with Staying Afloat Party Boat in Fort Lauderdale for a bachelorette party! Our captain, Ross, was absolutely amazing—so fun, welcoming, and lively, making the whole experience even better. He made sure we were all having a blast while cruising around and kept up the energy. We got to see some stunning mansions along the water, party at the sand bar, and just enjoy a beautiful day out on the water. HIGHLY recommend Captain Ross!!!

What a fun time! Captain John and Hunter/Jennifer great! Hunter was so entertaining! We had a Bachelorette party of 9, that had a blast on this boat tour! We will definitely come back when we visit Florida again!!!

I booked the party boat for my sister’s bachelorette and we had an amazing time! It’s definitely the best way to go with a large group as there was 13 of us total. Captains Adam and John were hilarious and definitely made the boat ride an amazing experience. I would definitely book again for another event. ☺️
