I recently went on a sunset boat ride, and it was truly a magical experience. As we cruised along the calm waters, we spotted manatees gently gliding through the water, and dolphins playfully leaping in the distance — both moments of pure serenity. The lush, scenic banks were dotted with gorgeous houses, each one more charming than the last, giving the ride a sense of luxury and tranquility. As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting vibrant colors across the sky, it felt like the perfect end to the day. The combination of wildlife, beautiful scenery, and the peaceful ambiance made it an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for nature lovers and those looking to unwind!

Very well, timed cruise to see the sunset. Great history about the area. The only thing we could criticize would be having cushions on the seats.

It was awesome to see the luminescent alge after the tour was over. The guide took time to show and point out the highlight

Calm environment definitely learned that it’s hard with small children (3&5) but didn’t take from the experience the cocoa beach sunset tour provided!

Dolphin before we even left the dock and playful dolphin rode our wake alongside the boat on the way home—wow! Manatee bubbles and birds and sunset views. Boat covered and breeze when moving and even bioluminescence seen with nets in the water on the way home. Easy barcode check in, parking not far and $2/hr w discount, Pat pointed out wildlife on the way, and there was mosquito spray available for when we were slow going through the shallows. Drinks on board for purchase. Delightful soundtrack and commentary. A good time for something to do together! Easy to book, good communication, and we had good weather so a good trip overall! I’m not sure how you can book direct with operator but seemed like ~$10 up charge on Viator pp.
