we turned up off the cuff hoping there was space for us and we were lucky. The greeting we got from everybody at Tampa Speedboat Adventures was 2nd to none, everyone was very friendly, funny and really happy in their jobs. It was as if they couldn't wait to share the adventure with you. Driving a Speedboat whilst taking photo's (my wife ensured the boat steered straight each time I grabbed the camera) was fun. plenty of wildlife, time to slow down and appreciate all around us including large pods of dolphin, and a fun time with turns and twists before heading back. http://www.flickr.com/photos/andytrish/sets/72157631616242503/ This is one adventure I would highly recommend, even if it means a long drive like we did first.

As it was our last day in Florida, we were a little stuck for something to do. Luckily a Groupon deal appeared for the Speed Boat Adventures in St Petersburg so we jumped at the chance to have a go at what seem'd to be a fun activity. Well I'm glad we did!! We had such a fantastic time driving our own speedboat being led around various sights by Capt. Scott!! Everything was explained to us before getting into the speed boats, such as safety tips, how to control the boat etc. I would definitely recommend this to anyone and everyone!
