Sea Rocket Ocean City operates high-energy water adventures out of Ocean City, Maryland, offering a variety of boat-based tours and combos for families, couples, and small groups.
The company runs the Sea Rocket speed boat for 45-minute dolphin cruises that include lively music, professional photos, and beverage service. Sea Rocket Ocean City also offers ocean parasailing, banana boat rides (groups up to six), private skiff back-bay cruises to Assateague Island that accommodate up to five passengers, and mixed combo packages that pair parasailing with speed boat dolphin cruises or sunset sails.
Festival shuttle services run on the water between the Aloft Hotel and Downtown Ocean City for events such as the Boardwalk Rock Festival and Country Calling Festival, providing scenic, scheduled transport across the harbor. Private bay cruise options allow guests to relax in quieter back-bay waters and view Assateague Island wildlife, including the island’s wild horses.
The business emphasizes memorable, activity-driven experiences: parasail flights, high-speed dolphin cruises, banana boat rides, private back-bay charters, and combined “do it all” watersports packages. Trip summaries note the use of professional photographers and skilled crew members during rides. Departure points are downtown Ocean City, with specific festival shuttles operating to and from the Aloft Hotel.
