Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for kids on this boat tour? Thinking of bringing my 10-year-old.

A: There’s no strict age limit, but it’s best for kids 8 and up since some kids might get restless or seasick. The guide tailors the experience a bit for younger ones, so they can enjoy the marine life and history. Just be sure to bring a life vest for your 10-year-old since they might require one.

Q: Can we reschedule if the weather is bad?

A: Yes! Ocean Force Adventures is pretty flexible with rescheduling due to bad weather. They usually contact you a day before to confirm conditions. If it looks stormy, you can easily pick another date without any extra fees.

Q: What’s the best time of year to go for good wildlife sightings?

A: Definitely spring and early fall! That’s when dolphin sightings are most common, and the weather is usually perfect. The tour guide also mentioned that the manatees are more active during those months. Just be prepared for some heat if you go in the summer!

Thinking about gifting this Miami boat tour for my parents!

Hey everyone! I’m looking at the Miami Small Group Boat Tour as a gift for my parents. They love history and nature. The tour includes stops at Stiltsville and Biscayne National Park, which sounds perfect. Anyone done this? How was the wildlife? I want to make sure it’s worth it before I buy!

Can anyone share their experience on the Miami boat tour?

Saw this small group boat tour in Miami and I'm really considering it. I’m not a great swimmer, so I’m curious about the safety measures. Do they provide life jackets? And what’s the boat like? Is it comfortable? I’ve never done anything like this before!
