Wondering where to go if you just want to take an easy cruise through beautiful Boca Ciega Bay? From our docks, we are one hour from John’s Pass where you can sight more dolphins than anywhere else. Along the way you will cruise through The Narrows, a bird sanctuary for Bald Eagles, Blue Herons, and the beautiful pink Rosetta Spoonbills.Don’t forget to dock off at McDonald’s for ice cream on the way home (yes, McDonald’s has a dock!). Or you may want to leave from our docks and head north to Belleair, past the rich and famous homes.
Take some more time, and continue north to explore Caladesi Island, voted #1 beach in America. On the island you can enjoy the day picnicking, searching for shells, swimming the turquoise waters or just relaxing on the beach.
The large Hurricane deck boats can head out Clearwater Pass into the Gulf of Mexico and anchor off Caladesi Island, Honeymoon Island and Three Rookers bar, where the water is clear enough to snorkel.
Cruise down the coast enjoying the open sea and try spotting the dolphins jumping. You can head back into the bay through John’s Pass and stop at the restaurants for a great meal on the water.
And as you come back in, Island Marine’s courteous staff will be there to help you dock the boat. If you’re thinking maybe you’ll get lost – don’t worry – some of the boats have Garmin GPS (like your car), just follow the line! We also have other pre planned routes and fun destinations on detailed maps. All boats have GPS trackers giving us details of your position.
