Staying Afloat Party Boat

Our group was in town for a bachelor party and had such a great time earlier in the trip on the paddle pub tour that everyone immediately wanted to get back out on the water again. Booking with Staying Afloat Party Boat ended up being the perfect call. Captain Damian and Mate Bertel were fantastic — super friendly, really funny, and clearly knew what they were doing, which made everyone feel safe while still keeping the party going. The whole experience was smooth and well run, and the atmosphere out on the water was awesome. We even ended up hanging out with people from other boats and at the sandbar, which made it feel like one big floating party. If you’re planning a group outing or bachelor party, this is an absolute must.

We had the BEST experience with Staying Afloat Party Boat! I was the maid of honor and booked the 4-hour cruise for 8 girls for a bachelorette weekend, and it was absolutely perfect. Captain Ross made the entire experience SO GREAT — he was kind, friendly, knowledgeable, and truly went above and beyond to make sure everyone had an amazing time. He showed us around Millionaire’s Row, shared awesome recommendations for places to check out, and kept the energy fun the whole cruise. If you’re booking, BOOK ROSS!! 10/10 stars — could not recommend this experience more! 🌊✨

For what they did, Captain Ross and Captain Dan did a good job and were attentive to their passengers. However—lol—we are retirees and booked this tour titled "Evening boat cruise through downtown Ft Lauderdale"—and lol—it was more a college age booze cruise with drinking and twerking encouraged. It was still very enjoyable and a nice group of kids just out for a good time, but it wasn’t exactly the boat ride I had envisioned with higher end beverage options and some more in-depth information (granted some was provided) on homes, history, and businesses in the area.

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 ❤️

Best way to end the night in Fort Lauderdale! BJ and Ross were very knowledgeable and entertaining! Loved the BYOB and music on board! Me and my family had the best time!

Our family went on this boat tour over Christmas 2025. My daughter, myself and her 3 children. We had the boat all to ourselves and the Captain and first mate were amazing and provided the kids a wonderful time! Thank you so much. This was my daughter and my 2nd time doing this tour and had a blast both times! We will be back!

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! 🙂
