West Palm Beach: Private Boat Cruise & Peanut Island with CaptainYou board a private boat with a captain who navigates to Peanut Island's sandbars, where you float on a mat, listen to your own music through the boat's Bluetooth system, and drink cold water from the cooler. Food vendors work the sandbars if you book the 4-hour option. The captain speaks English and Spanish, and you're back on shore in 2 to 4 hours depending on which package you choose.Is it for me?Book this if you want to spend a few hours on the water without managing a rental boat or joining a crowded tour — the captain handles navigation and the floating mat turns the sandbars into your own space.
West Palm Beach Food Tour: James Beard Chefs & DDD TacosYou visit six restaurants and food stops across West Palm Beach's historic neighborhoods in a single afternoon, tasting food from James Beard–nominated chefs, a Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives–featured taco shop, authentic Cuban food, and a Michelin-awarded butcher shop, all while riding in a Mercedes van with a guide who explains the architecture and history. Taxes, parking, all tastings and a glass of sangria are included, and the group stays under 14 people.Is it for me?Book this if you want to taste West Palm Beach's best chefs and food spots without arranging your own route, parking or deciding which restaurants are worth the time—the van and guide handle all of that, and the six stops fit into one afternoon.
Craft Beer and Wine Sunset Cruise in Palm Beach: Beverages and water includedA 2-hour sunset cruise in Palm Beach aboard a covered catamaran with craft beer, wine, bottled water and soda included. The boat carries a maximum of 34 guests and departs with a live English-speaking guide. Children are welcome from age 7, and the cruise glides past Peanut Island and the waterfront estates lining the Intercoastal as the sun sets.Is it for me?Most sunset cruises in the area pack you onto a crowded boat with a cash bar. This one holds 34 people maximum, includes the drinks, and keeps the evening about the light and the company instead of the upsell.
Palm Beach: Mimosas Cruise Past Mansions & MegayachtsYou’ll sip complimentary mimosas as you drift past Palm Beach’s famous mansions and megayachts on this relaxed 1.5-hour cruise.

Palm Beach Intracoastal Boat Tour: 90 minutes with guideA 90-minute guided boat tour along the Palm Beach Intracoastal waterway in West Palm Beach, passing the homes of wealthy residents, Peanut Island and the tropical shoreline. The guide narrates history, ecological features and points of interest while you cruise; sodas, snacks and water are provided, and you can bring your own drinks.Is it for me?This is a shared boat tour with a live guide, so you're cruising with other passengers rather than renting a private vessel. It suits anyone who wants the narration and local knowledge without steering the boat themselves, and the 90-minute length keeps it manageable for a morning or afternoon without a full-day commitment.
Peanut Island Sandbar and Swim Tour from Lake Park MarinaA 3-hour sandbar and swim tour departing from Lake Park Marina that cruises the Intracoastal Waterway before anchoring in shallow, crystal-clear water near Peanut Island.

The tour holds up to 34 people, includes bottled water and snacks, and is BYOB for guests 21 and over.Is it for me?Choose this if you want to spend three hours anchored at one sandbar with paddleboards and floats rather than visiting multiple stops—your group sets the pace, not a fixed itinerary.
West Palm Beach GreenMarket Food Tour: 2-Hour Brunch TastingA 2-hour guided brunch tour at the West Palm Beach GreenMarket on Clematis Street, where you taste from local vendors, meet the people behind the food, and finish with mimosas overlooking the market. The guide handles introductions and access; you move through the market as a VIP, tasting Cuban coffee, arepas, conch fritters, tropical fruits, cheese and a stuffed cookie, then sit down for a final drink in a restaurant with a view of the market floor below.Is it for me?Book this tour if you want to eat a full breakfast without planning which vendors to visit or waiting in lines—the guide handles the route and the introductions, leaving you free to taste and talk with the people making the food.
Jupiter: Clear Kayak Eco Tour with Wildlife & Sandbar StopsYou’ll slip into a clear tandem kayak in Jupiter’s calm waterways with a local guide leading you past mangroves and sandbars. Watch for manatees, ospreys, pelicans—even tiny fish beneath your seat—while learning about this unique ecosystem. There’s time to wade on sandbars or just float quietly as sunlight dances below you. It’s peaceful in ways that stick with you after you leave.
Clear Kayak Tour Peanut Island: See Underwater LifeA clear kayak tour to Peanut Island near Palm Beach where you paddle above sandbars, shipwrecks and sea life—fish, manatees, turtles, starfish, iguanas and stingrays—with a Florida native guide. The boat is transparent, so the underwater world stays visible the whole time. Children from age 5 are welcome, and all even-numbered bookings pair tandem; single-seat kayaks are available separately on the operator's website.Is it for me?Book this tour if you want to see what's actually underwater instead of paddling blind—the transparent hull is what makes the difference. Arrive early (30 minutes before start) and plan to get wet; the guide handles navigation so you can focus on watching the seafloor.
