Helpful Tips

Please plan on arriving to Bayside Marketplace between 5:15 pm and 5:45 pm for check-in. The tour may begin any time after 6:00 pm, so please be on time as Miami’s traffic may be unpredictable. Once the boat has left the dock, it will be unable to return for late tour participants.

We suggest bringing water and wearing sun protection. Water and soda service will be provided onboard by Island Queen Cruises. Additional light snacks and drinks are available to purchase from Island Queen Cruises.
