Port Everglades

Our tour coasts through this massive port to explore the cruise ships and cargo freighters that pass through. This also gives you a perspective of how much water we are surrounded by in South Florida. With 160 miles of canals, no wonder they call it the "Venice of America".

I can't say enough good things about Staying Afloat. Took a cruise around the inter-coastal with some friends I met in Fort Lauderdale. Captain Ross showed us an amazing time. Not only was the the ride fun but informative. Captain Ross even let me DJ. Great time highly recommended.

These guys brought us to a location in Fort Lauderdale to go swimming in an area that is known to have bull sharks in the waters.

Hello David, the area you went to in Middle River is NOT known for sharks. It is the dedicated water skiing, wake boarding, and tubing area for Fort Lauderdale as well as an anchorage. People do in-water activities there all the time and have no issues. The area shares the same water as the sandbar by 1/2 a mile which is a typical spot for boaters to swim and is currently closed due to Covid restrictions. Not one person I know, or any of our Captains know, have ever seen a shark there.
