Q&A

Q: Is there a specific age limit for kids on this cruise? Want to take my 8-year-old!

A: There's no strict age limit for kids on the cruise! As long as they're accompanied by adults, they're welcome. Just keep in mind that it can get a bit bumpy depending on the weather, so make sure your little one is comfortable with that. Captain Chris is super accommodating and will make sure everyone has a great time, including the kids.

Q: What if the weather turns bad? Can we reschedule?

A: Absolutely! Captain Chris is great about rescheduling if the weather isn't cooperating. Just make sure to give him a call or text as soon as you know there might be an issue. He'll work with you to find a time that fits your schedule. It's all about making sure you have a blast out there!

Q: What should I wear for snorkeling? Is it a swim suit or something else?

A: Definitely a swim suit! You'll be in and out of the water for snorkeling and hanging out on the sandbars. I'd also suggest a cover-up or a rash guard for sun protection. Don’t forget sunglasses and sunscreen; it can get pretty sunny out there. Just be comfy and ready to have fun!

Just got back from the Clearwater cruise - amazing experience!

We just did the 6-hour private cruise with Captain Chris and it was a blast! We saw so many dolphins and the snorkeling was incredible! The boat, Salt Therapy, is super comfortable, and we loved the freedom to choose where to go. We stopped at a beautiful sandbar for lunch and just lounged around with our drinks. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a fun getaway in Clearwater!

Considering gifting this cruise to my parents. Any tips?

I’m thinking about booking the Island Time Adventure cruise as a gift for my parents’ anniversary. They love the water but have never been on a private boat before. Does anyone think this is a good idea? Any advice on making it special?
