Festive Holiday Boat Ride!

Visiting St. Pete for the holidays, we came across St. Pete Beach Electric Boat Co. while researching activities—and booking the festive, self-guided holiday electric boat cruise could not have been easier. From the moment we made the reservation, Chris was incredibly responsive and truly elevated the entire experience. This is a family-owned business, and it shows in every thoughtful detail. Chris, the owner, was so sweet, welcoming, and accommodating. The boat itself was perfect—beautifully decorated for the Christmas season, equipped with a Bluetooth speaker, a lovely charcuterie board, and sparkling rosé. Before we set off, Chris thoroughly walked us through the safety features, provided a map, and gave helpful tips on where to go (and where to avoid), which made us feel completely at ease. We had such a lovely day on the water—even when we made a wrong turn, it all worked out and became part of the fun. This was the perfect way to cap off our weekend in St. Pete Beach. Highly recommend supporting this wonderful family-run company, and we will absolutely be back!

We decided to try something different on our holiday visit to St. Pete Beach this year. The night trip on a Duffy boat during Christmas was a perfect choice! With our holiday music playing and decked out with Christmas lights not only did we feel the holiday spirit - I’m sure anyone that saw us did too!!! It was so much fun cruising around exploring! Chris went the extra mile with personalized coasters, beverages, and charcuterie. The boat is super easy to drive and a map is provided in case you need it. Chris also took great pics for us - which he printed a 8x10 for us to take home. Perfect ending to our trip! If you are in need of holiday cheer - book the boat! Or….. any time - the Duffy boat ride will make a nice adventure any time of year!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely magical experience!

We had the most beautiful time. The boat ride was peaceful, the weather was perfect, and we were lucky enough to see dolphins playing right near us! We had a charcuterie board and champagne, which made the whole experience feel so relaxing and special. Our eight-year-old had an absolute blast, between spotting wildlife, watching fish jump out of the water, and “helping” navigate, he was smiling the entire time. After the boat ride, we enjoyed taking one of their Moke electric vehicles to tour around. It turned the whole outing into a full family adventure and made the day feel extra special. Highly recommend to families, couples, or anyone who wants a true Florida adventure.

We had such a wonderful time on our two-hour electric boat rental! The whole experience was relaxing, fun, and incredibly easy from start to finish. I loved that we could drive our own boat—it made the outing feel like our own little adventure without any stress. The personal touches from Chris made everything even lovelier. If you’re looking for a simple, peaceful excursion on the water, this is absolutely perfect. Highly recommend!

I recently rented from St Pete electric boat co a sunset cruise for my wife's birthday and without a doubt, this was a truly amazing experience. From start to finish, everything was beautifully organized with thought and detail. From the birthday balloons, custom coasters, photos he included, champagne, etc. Chris went above and beyond to make the evening special for us. The boat had plenty of space to sit back and soak it all in, and there was even music playing in the background, adding to the peaceful atmosphere. Whether you’re with friends, family, or on a romantic outing, this cruise is a must-do. It’s the perfect way to end a day—calm waters, stunning views, and a sense of serenity that stays with you long after you step back on shore. Highly recommend!

Omg Chris went above and beyond! I had no idea what he had planned for us… my husband booked 2 days before and told Chris it was my 50th birthday in the day we had a pink Moke for the day and then met Chris at the doc by the Don Cesar and he came driving the boat along all decorated!!! My goodness it was incredible of all my life coming to st Pete’s beach this has definitely been the most memorable and I would definitely pit it top of your to do list … Chris went above and beyond please just see from the photos of everything from the champagne/ waters/grazing platter/ hats / placemats that were personalised/ the balloons and decor and not to mention the plague that was made aswell that I’m taking back to the uk to frame!!! We were treated once we finished and then drove the Moke to dinner!!! Please please make sure u book this tour and Moke with Chris what an amazing man with the most amazing business! Cannot thank you enough, with all my heart Thank you for making my 50th so special!

Chris went over and beyond for our trip, we genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The small details were so special and incredibly kind. I would definitely recommend for any occasion, whether celebrating a birthday like we were for my mum or just taking a trip out to see the amazing view the journey has to offer.
