What to expect

Departing from Waterline Marina in Holmes Beach, your captain will take you by boat to Jewfish Key or another nearby sandbar based on the day’s tides and conditions. Once there, it’s all about slowing down and enjoying the water. Swim, wade through the shallow water, float, or simply relax with friends and family while taking in the beautiful surroundings.

We provide pool noodles for guests who want to kick back in the water. You’re also welcome to bring drinks and a small cooler aboard. Alcohol is permitted for guests 21 and older, but please no glass containers.

Along the boat ride, keep your eyes open for some of the wildlife that makes the waters around Anna Maria Island so special. Dolphins, manatees, rays, sea turtles, and coastal birds are sometimes spotted along the way. Wildlife sightings are always a bonus and cannot be guaranteed.

This is not a dedicated dolphin-watching tour. It’s a laid-back sandbar experience designed for swimming, relaxing, enjoying the water, and spending a fun day on the boat with family and friends.
