The experience

The tour starts at the onsite restaurant where your captain meets you and walks passengers to the dock. You'll need to arrive 30 minutes early to check in, and the operator asks that you account for traffic and use the restaurant address in GPS rather than the company name to find the right location. Once on the airboat, you're surrounded by the sounds and sights of the water: the captain navigates while you take in the open views as the sun moves toward the horizon.

The airboat carries very limited seats, so early booking matters if you want a spot. All passengers get hearing protection and a safety vest. The water is typically 10 degrees cooler than land, so dressing warm is essential. Sunset tours don't operate when temperatures drop below 50°F. If the minimum number of passengers hasn't been met, the operator will notify you 2 hours before your reservation time.

What’s included

• 1-hour airboat ride with an experienced captain.
• hearing protection and safety vest for all passengers.
• local taxes.
