The Experience

How does the Island Adventure day actually run?

The day opens with a private scenic boat tour past Star Island and the Miami skyline. Jet ski time follows — the captain manages who rides next. The day ends with a Virginia Key snorkel in about six feet of calm bay water with gear sized at the dock.

Jet ski time is open water with your own throttle — push it or cruise at your pace. First-time riders get a short briefing before they head out. After jet skis, you anchor at Virginia Key for shallow reef time while the captain stays with the boat.

Three experiences. One private charter.

Perfect For

Who is the Island Adventure Package perfect for?

The Island Adventure Package fits bachelor and bachelorette groups, mixed-age families, corporate outings up to twenty-two guests, and planners who want boat tour, jet ski, and snorkel bundled on one private charter — without juggling separate operators or schedules.

Bachelor & Bachelorette Groups

Boat, Jet Ski, and Reef for Your Group

Three activities, one private boat, your whole group — no strangers, no shared schedule, no deciding between experiences. Book the package and do all three.

Families With Mixed Ages

Something for Everyone on Board

The scenic tour works for every age. The jet ski suits the thrill-seekers. The six-foot reef is beginner-safe and family-friendly. One charter covers the whole group without compromise.

Corporate & Group Events

Up to 22 Guests on One Charter

Large enough for the full team, private enough to feel exclusive. One captain, one boat, one rate — a private charter for the whole team. Call us if your group exceeds 22.

Value-Focused Planners

Three for the Price of One Package

  • USCG-Licensed Captains

    Every charter is crewed by a captain holding a U.S. Coast Guard Master Merchant Mariner credential. Credential standards are maintained by the National Maritime Center (USCG). Meet Captain Felipe and the team.

  • Safety Briefing & Life Jackets on Board

    Every charter opens with a safety rundown. USCG-rated life jackets are on board for every guest and are required in the water during the snorkel segment. Florida boating equipment rules sit with FWC; cited in the sources block below.

The kindness, courtesy, and hospitality Mario and Nico showed my family on our first ever snorkeling adventure was amazing. The explanation of the process and the patience Nico exhibited made the experience enjoyable. Nico was a great captain on our private boat tour. Very personable. I couldn’t swim but he jumped in the water and was the guide for myself and family so we could experience the beautiful sites under the water. The cost was reasonable and definitely worth it (the tour and snorkeling). A must do!

Captain Nico and Javier! Mucho gusto por su hospitalidad. You made our last minute booking comfortable and fun for our family of 4 under 7. From snorkeling to sandbar we saw dolphins, a manatee that swam right under our boat, HUGE conchs and so many cool creatures. For those of us that were hesitant you were patient and encouraging. Thank you for everything. We can't wait to come back and do it again!

Captain Erik was so much fun! He was very knowledgeable about the area and the marine life in the area! While snorkeling we saw conch and stingrays, lots of fish including red tailed snapper and yellow tailed snapper! My husband saw a small nurse shark hiding in the reef and on the way back to the dock we saw dolphins!!! 5 stars!

Felipe was personal, friendly, and very patient. You can tell he enjoys this job. I had a 10-year-old son with me snorkeling for the very first time. My son was so comfortable with him that he held on to the float and snorkel while Felipe dragged him in the water. It was a private boat tour and snorkel. Beautiful view of all the high rises and Felipe filled us in the history. Thank you Felipe for making it memorable.

We had an absolute blast! We booked a 3 hour private boat and we could not have asked for a better experience. Booking the experience was easy, we were met as soon as we arrived and escorted to our boat. Captain Erik was excellent and professional and a really nice guy! He was knowledgeable about the area, we felt safe, he took us snorkeling and was always on top of safety and giving us the best experience. We saw Manatees, we saw dolphins. Erik gave us everything and more! We had time to snorkel as well as swim at the sand bar as well as touring around Fisher Island and all along the coast. Erik could not have been better. We were so lucky to have gotten him as our Captain. Highly recommend. Three hours felt more like five. It was the highlight of our trip! Thank you so much!
