This Historical Dinner Cruise was a hit from start to finish! The evening was outstanding (Captain & crew, drink service, meal service, photo taking, historical information, live music and DJ). It was a great mix of historical information, scenery and music. The meal was delicious! Drink service was excellent. We got to see the Captain Cook Monument, some goats on the cliffs AND enjoyed a beautiful sunset. Some guests saw flying fish, dolphins and a manta ray! We thought it was amazing and so happy we booked this dinner cruise. Seeing the rocky coastline from the water was also a highlight!! Highly recommend it!

What a wonderful evening my family and I had with the other guests and crew of the Body Glove company! Music, drinks and beautiful views made for a Thanksgiving we’ll never forget. Every crew member was friendly and attentive to each guests needs. I highly recommend this experience.

Crazy rocky boat and lots of us got sick but the crew was fabulous and the food was good. It was Thanksgiving and so fun to celebrate and the scenery was beautiful! It was storming a little so I’m sure that’s why the waves were strong.
