Frequently Asked Questions
Dress comfy and be ready for some fun! A jacket might be your best mate in winter, and don’t forget that sunscreen to fend off sneaky sun rays.
A splash from the salty sea? Maybe. Soaking in a squirt gun duel on the Royal Conquest? Quite possibly! But fear not, landlubber, as we’ve got dry zones for those who prefer splash-free adventures.
No need to resort to a message in a bottle! We have bathrooms aboard. But we recommend you use the land-based facilities before setting sail.
Set aside a good 1.5 hours for your sea adventure with us. Time flies when you’re having this much fun!
Seasick on our watch? Not likely! We usually cruise the gentle waves of Boca Ciega Bay, steering clear of the choppy Gulf of Mexico. If you’ve ever been woozy on the waves, take some precautions. For your safety, please check with your doctor first. Happy sailing!
Be sure to arrive at least 30 minutes before departure to collect your boarding pass. If you’re cruising during peak season, it might be wise to allot an additional hour for parking at the always-busy John’s Pass!
Absolutely! Ensuring safety is at the top of our list on all of our vessels. The U.S. Coast Guard conducts regular inspections.
