This was the most fun we had while vacationing in St. Pete Beach! There was construction on the bridge over to where you launch, but the folks there called us back and gave us detailed directions. They were patient and waited on us, even though we were a little late. The speedboat adventure was fun because they actually encourage you to go full speed! We got wet with the spray from the water. We saw a dolphin and several sites on shore. Our guide, Captain Scott, was really nice and patient when we had problems at first. If you're going anywhere near here, this is a must do!

I am always looking for something fun and exciting to do in Florida and luckily came across Speed Boat Adventures. Scott, Captain Tony and the other employees were so warm, friendly and inviting. The experience was one that I will never forget and I recommend that whether you are a local or visiting the area, Speed Boat Adventures is a MUST! So glad to have done it and will definitely do it again!

This is one of the most exciting, informative, & fun things you will ever do. Captain Tony was an excellent guide. His enthusiasm while spotting dolphins during our tour was infectious. His knowledge of the area & sea life was entertaining. He took us on an awesome tour & a great adventure. We were able to do s-turns on our return trip & thoroughly enjoyed the thrill of hitting the wake of other boats while safely being led by Tony. This is an absolute must-do experience, well worth your time & money. We are looking forward to doing this again in San Diego & hope more locations open in the future.
