Island Boat Lines

The Southern Dinner Cruise was the closeout event for our family vacation. The food was good, atmosphere great, and the staff were very attentive. Would highly recommend to friends.

This evening was an event to finish off our wedding day on Cocoa Beach. We had a great night, the crew looked after us with flowers on our table and the band asking for our favourite music, the service was ace. The food was ok, but the music, dancing and whole ambience and service made the evening. Would recommend to all.

Absolutely loved it, great food, cannot wait to do it again. I wish that it was longer than 2hrs.

We decided this was the highlight of our trip! Although it mentioned that we would see manatees and dolphins we really didn't expect to. Not only did we see them but also sea otters and several fascinating birds and other wildlife. It was very relaxing and the tour guides were super friendly and knowledgeable. I would go again in a heart beat! Highly recommended for all age groups!!!

The guides were very knowledgeable and informative. Nature put on a great show.

We really enjoyed the boat ride, the crew was enlightening and entertaining. The afternoon was not the best since it rained most of the ride. However, we enjoyed the crew and the other guests. We made the most of it. Yes, I would recommend this tour to friends and family.

They have a new location that is on the main road and easy to find. Covered pontoon style boat with bench seats. Captain Sue very nice, and a volunteer provided lots of info about the local flora and fauna. We saw manatees, porpoises and many birds. A nice easy 2 hrs.

Thanks we enjoyed our ride -saw lots of pelicans and a couple of dophins in the the distance. Couldn't really see the manatees but did see signs of them.

Viewing the wildlife was awsome. Learning the history and demographics of the lagoon was fascinating. For the price it's a steal. After many trips to Cocoa Beach I also saw a community that I didn't know existed.

It is one thing to go to Sea World and see dolphins and manatees but there seems to be more satisfication in an adventure that lets you view wildlife in the wild. The family from out of town, especially a couple that have never been to Florida were totally thrilled.

Captain Sue was wonderful, Beth our nature advisor was equally terrific. We had such a nice day and a nice time. Would love to do again sometime.

We had a great time . The crew was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area along with the animals we saw on the tour which included dolphines, manatee, various birds. The tour lasted 2 hours and we were on a pontoon boat which allowed us to move about to better see. Do not need binoculars usless bird watching as the marine life is close to the boat. In cooler weather bring a jacket as crosssing the Banana River can be chilly and wet if there are waves. I would recommend this trip

It was a gorgeous day. The guides were extremely friendly and very knowledgeable about the local area and wildlife. We brought along our binoculars, camera and our "Birds of North America" book. We marked off several new species that we had never seen before. We got to experience seeing a great blue heron in its glory surrounded by a handful of wood storks. We saw lots of manatee. We spotted several Osprey and their nests. Although I couldn't snap a picture in time, we did see a Roseate Spoonbill in flight which appeared to be a breeding adult with its vibrant colors. The tour was the perfect amount of time and we had a wonderful day. If you go, go with friends and family who enjoy the beauty of nature and you'll not be disappointed!

My husband and I took the Cocoa Beach 1,000 island tour August 1, 2010. We very much enjoyed the tour, the narative of Sue and Susan and how informative they both were. It was a very hot day and we wish we had brought our cooler we had in the car or adult beverages would have been available for sale. Rick and Tammy Renie
