The boat slips away from Excursions Marina and the Gulf opens like a dare: blue shallows, a raised bar of sand, and a flotilla of inflatable loungers. Music threads through the breeze, laughter bounces off the hull, and the water—sun-warmed and surprisingly inviting—compels you to step off the swim platform and into the party.

Bring reef‑safe sunscreen
Florida sun is intense on open water—apply broad‑spectrum reef‑safe sunscreen before boarding and reapply after swimming.
Wear water shoes
The sandbar and swim platform can be uneven; quick‑dry, non‑slip water shoes protect feet from shells and hot surfaces.
Hydrate and BYO drinks responsibly
An ice cooler is on board, but bring water and enough beverages for your group; avoid glass.
Arrive early for check‑in
Plan to be at Excursions Marina 30 minutes before departure—boarding closes 15 minutes prior and there’s a $10 parking fee.
