Went on a 4 hour cruise to the lighthouse (past Jupiter Island) I'm not usually one for these 'excursions' but I have to say this one was wonderful.. The crewe were all really friendly and it was SO informative it was amazing - and not just the parts about who lives where, but also the history of the area, the local wildlife, and also previous residents. The box lunch on the way back was also lovely, really fresh and tasty. My only word of caution would be that if it's a lovely day you really do need sunscreen on.. I had factor 20 on but I obviously missed bits on me and I definitely burnt in a few places :( All in all a really lovely trip and would recommend it.

Our group of 50 adults all enjoyed this very relaxing lunch cruise. We boarded the boat docked at the Sailfish Marina in Stuart around 10 am. By 10:30 we were on our way touring the calm waters of the Intracoastal Waterways of the Treasure Coast. We traveled from the Manatee Pocket to St. Lucie River then along the Indian River through Hobe Sound & Jupiter Sound. The boat turned around at the Jupiter Lighthouse. When we boarded, we chose to sit in the enclosed air conditioned lower dining deck; others in our group chose to sit on the upper open air deck. It was a beautiful sunny day and wherever you sat, you had great views along the river. We passed Sandsprit Park, bird sanctuaries, nature preserves, St Lucie State Park, Jonathan Dickenson State Park and a Wildlife Refuge. We saw mangrove trees, million dollar mansions and Sandpointe Bay Condominiums. One of the mansions had a For Sale Sign if you are interested. It was fun passing under bridges and waving to other boats and jet skiers. We even saw a small group out in kayaks. Some families were out on a long sandbar enjoyed the water & sunshine. Captain Bob Miller did a very interesting and thorough running commentary all the way to Jupiter Lighthouse. He pointed out two manatees, a large turtle, many varieties of wild birds and an osprey nest. Guests are free to moved around the boat at will. Although we passed right by Tiger Wood's mansion, he wasn't out mowing his lawn. In fact, his home was barely visible through the luscious foliage. Most of the mansions were unoccupied by their owners because it is summertime. On the return trip, we dined on a boxed deli lunch prepared & served by the staff. It included a ham, turkey & cheese sandwich, a large pickle wedge, fresh cut-up fruit and an oatmeal raisin cookie. Our group received a ticket for a non-alcoholic drink. Complimentary pastries and coffee were available during the cruise. Reasonably priced alcoholic drinks are served at the two bars - one on each deck. Clean restrooms are on both decks. The atmosphere on board is very laid back with bare tables and chairs that can be moved. The boat is also available for more formal events such as wedding charters, corporate events and scheduled evening cruises with different menu options. The staff is very professional and most courteous. They assist guests in every way possible. One woman in our group experienced a minor fall and the staff was quick to respond with wrapped ice and assistance. If you take this day cruise you will be well cared for. I highly recommend the cruise. Call for a current schedule and a reservation.

The Island Princess Cruise was recommended by our activities person at our villa and it was great fun. It is a 4 hour cruise that takes you through Martin County by water. You see the wonderful houses built on the waters edge and the mansions in Jupiter that have beautiful views. Captain Bob narrated all the way to the Lighthouse where you go and turnaround to return to Port. It is a relaxing ride, serves lunch (nice fresh sandwich with pickle and cookie on our trip), has and open bar where drinks are 1/2 the price of any restaurant unless you get a good Happy Hour. Pepper and Julie are great staff, willing to talk if you have questions and great service. A lazy day on the water and highly recommend!
