Travelers

The first time the Sea Rocket pushes away from C Dock at Bahia Mar, the city recedes into a line of glass and palm trunks while the water opens like a moving mirror. For 75 minutes the boat stitches together two faces of Fort Lauderdale: a wide, wind-cut Atlantic horizon and the intimate channels of the Intracoastal and New River where high-rise reflections mingle with dockside palms. Guests lean over rails as a narrated route calls out billion-dollar homes, the daily ballet at Port Everglades, and the downtown skyline sliding toward gold.

Adventure Tips

Arrive Early

Docking is at Bahia Mar’s C Dock and boarding begins 10 minutes before departure—plan to arrive 25 minutes early since the boat departs on schedule.

Choose Your Seat Strategically

For smooth sailing and sunset views, grab a bow or upper-deck seat early; midship seats reduce motion for sensitive passengers.

Sun Protection Still Matters

Even on an evening cruise UV reflection from the water can be strong—bring sunscreen and a hat.

Bring Small Cash or Card

Refreshments or tips may be accepted onboard—carry a small amount of cash or a card for purchases.

Local Insights

Wildlife

Bottlenose dolphins
Brown pelicans (and occasional manatees near inlets)

History

Fort Lauderdale grew from tidal creeks into a major port and resort town in the early 20th century; the waterways have long been central to its economy and identity.

Conservation

Be mindful of marine life—do not feed wildlife and support local efforts to reduce plastic and runoff that affect the Intracoastal and coastal habitats.
