Sunday Brunch Cruise

This is a nice way to spend 2 hours on the water learning about the river, town, history and people who lived an live along the water. Food was decent, a great choice of reasonably priced beverages and a very friendly and helpful crew. The captain was well versed in the history and made a great pot of coffee.

A Wonderful Afternoon on the River.

Six of us from Vero Beach had a wonderful two hour river cruise on the Island Princess last Saturday.
The crew is well informed and very pleasant. The boat is in clean and in excellent shape.
This is the fifth time my husband and I have cruised the river on the Island Princess. It is a wonderful way to spend time with family and friends.

Cruise the Beautiful Intercoastal Waterway

We live locally and on a last minute impulse took a cruise on this boat this week for the first time and it was great! We took the 4.5 hour Jupiter Island Lunch Cruise and my impression and opinion follows: very clean and well maintained boat, nice boxed lunch, informative commentary on a good sound system, lovely natural areas alternating with stunning waterside homes, FREE coffee, reasonably priced drinks from a well stocked bar, nice mix of covered and open areas for seating (this was key when we hit a brief rain shower), and friendly attentive staff (who quickly wiped off the wet tables and chairs when we passed the rain clouds). I felt it is priced appropriately and a good value. We learned many things and look forward to taking visitors on this boat in the future. Book a cruise TODAY and you will enjoy it!

So Much Fun!

This was the 4th time I have traveled on the lovely waters of our area here on the Treasure Coast with The Island Princess over the past 3 decades. What a joy. We took the afternoon cruise this time and Capt. Chris was very informative and interesting in his monologue. The crew go out of their way to make you feel right at home on this journey. I look forward to my next trip....maybe the new Sunday brunch cruise.

Don't Miss This Sight Seeing Cruise on the Beautiful Indian River.

Every now and then you pay for something that returns much more enjoyment than the price of entry. This scenic 2 hour cruise on the Indian River based out of the Marriott on Hutchinson Island is one of those experiences. We took the Sunday Brunch cruise. It was reasonably priced and (less than $50 per person, it deserves five stars for fun, comfort, scenic viewing, food and facilities. The crew was very friendly, competent and helpful. As far as local sight seeing cruises go it doesn't get any better than this. This is a great half day activity for families with children of all ages or for one, two or three couples.

A Perfect Family Afternoon

A lovely cruise with all you could ask for! The captain is cheery and pleasant and the lunch was simply, yet delicious! We sat up on top deck as well as in AC down below. Comfortable ride. Very informative. Fair price. We plan to go again next year with all the family.

Lovely 4 Hour Cruise

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 crews 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.

Very nice

Very nice and affordable cruises. Well versed and entertaining for the half day Jupiter cruise and very nice and entertaining for evening dinner cruises.
