Looking for something different to do in the water this is a great way to see Sarasota from a different perspective. Fun on the water and the guides were excellent.

Fantastic fun! Carissa and Kara, are outstanding guides. Both are very knowledgeable, friendly, and go above and beyond to ensure customers are enjoying their time on the crafts and out in the beautiful water. The crafts are super easy to operate. Carissa and Cara, take photos (and send them promptly), provide waters and fruit cups, and dry bags. They piont out sites, dolphins, and seashells; and the time spent on the sandbar added to the wonderfulexperience. We will absolutely be back. Fun for all age, reasonable pricing - great value!
Fun on small vehicle for couples

We did the HydroCats ride with my family, and it was such a blast! The water wasn’t exactly calm, which actually made it even more fun — just the right mix of speed, splash, and excitement. We even spotted dolphins along the way! The boats were easy to handle, the guides were great, and the views around Sarasota Bay were beautiful. Totally recommend it!
So FUN

My husband & I went November 2nd. We had a great time, we saw dolphins went out & stopped at the sandbar - I could’ve stayed all day! I would definitely recommend & would absolutely do this again. The owners a great people & made this very enjoyable. This from the girl who said she didn’t need a jacket but was convinced to take one anyway just in case. The jacket saved the day lol I really appreciated that & won’t forget it. We will not regret this experience 😊
Outstanding!

Highly recommend this tour! The owners take great care of the clients and the boats are unique and very fun! Very reasonably priced. The tour group was not too big so we all were able to follow. Lots of dolphin sightings which we were free to stop and look up at close range.
