Sea Rocket Fort Lauderdale operates a fleet of ocean excursions focused on speed boat sightseeing, ocean parasailing, seasonal holiday lights tours, and private charters along Fort Lauderdale’s coastline. The fleet includes the brand new Sea Rocket speed boat used for sightseeing cruises, sunset trips, and private 75-minute charters that can accommodate up to 130 passengers and hold a full liquor license.
Trips combine high-energy experiences and relaxed sightseeing: speed boat cruises feature lively music and panoramic coastal views, while parasailing excursions lift participants 10–12 minutes above the Atlantic for aerial views of the South Florida coast. Several combo packages pair parasailing with complimentary cruises on the Sea Rocket for a mixed day of excitement and relaxation.
Seasonal offerings include the Sea Rocket Christmas Holiday Mansion Lights Tour and 4th of July fireworks cruises, with both public sailings and private-party options. The private 4th of July party option operates from a 12-passenger parasail boat and allows BYOB for small-group celebrations.
Professional crews staff each experience, providing safety briefings, boat handling, and guided commentary during sightseeing trips. For specific combo bookings, the operator requests guests call after booking to confirm scheduling and availability. Sea Rocket Fort Lauderdale serves residents and visitors looking for memorable ocean adventures, family-friendly outings, and customizable private events on the water.
