SPEEDBOAT THRILL ride in Destin, FL
Climb aboard the Screaming Eagle Speedboat for a fast tour of Destin’s stunning waters. Wrapped head to toe in stars and stripes, this patriotic boat is built to fly. Our 14-passenger speedboat is small enough that you feel every bit of the speed, with sights that can include Destin Harbor, Choctawhatchee Bay, and Crab Island.
Feel your adrenaline pump and the wind in your face as we race across emerald waters. American rock blasts while our captain and first mate keep the energy high. Every trip is fun and fast, with a chance to see dolphins and other marine wildlife along the way.
This speedboat rides low to the water, so you may get splashed or even soaked. Dress accordingly and keep your phones and valuables protected.
What’s Included:
- Thrilling high-speed runs across emerald waters
- 14-passenger capacity for a small-group experience
- Shaded seating under a full canopy
- USCG-licensed captain and first mate
- Professional safety briefing before departure
- Opportunity to bring a small cooler with beverages
-
We strongly recommend arriving 30 minutes prior to boarding to allow time for traffic, parking, and checking in. Boarding begins 15 minutes prior to departure. Please check-in at our office in the yellow building, Gilligan’s Marina.

During spring and fall months, you may want to bring jackets as our sunset cruises tend to be cooler in temperature.
- Wear clothes you don’t mind getting wet in! The Screaming Eagle rides close to the water, so splashing is possible during the ride.

If there is just a light rain, we are still able to run, subject to the captain’s discretion. If there is thunder or lightning, we will not run. If the captain makes the decision to cancel the cruise due to weather before the boat leaves the dock, we will notify all guests with reservations. Weather cancellations are made on a cruise by cruise basis, and may be determined close to cruise time, even up to the time of departure. However, we will make every effort to make a determination at least an hour before cruising. In the rare situation that we must cancel the event prior to departure, ticket-holders will be allowed to reschedule tickets (subject to availability), receive a gift card, or receive a full refund. “Full refund” will include Trip Protection if it was purchased.
In the event of inclement weather after departing, a full refund will not be available after the boat departs the dock. Only rainchecks or standby tickets will be given. Standby tickets never expire. Standby tickets for canceled cruises will be automatically applied to your account and you can check in at either kiosk with your name or number and the date of your original cruise to redeem them.
-
Activity may be canceled due to below minimum passenger count, or at captain’s discretion due to weather conditions including heavy rain, high winds, or lightning. As safety is our top priority, weather cancellations are made on a cruise by cruise basis up to time of departure. In the rare situation the seller must cancel the event prior to departure, ticket-holders will be allowed to reschedule tickets (subject to availability), receive a gift card, or receive a full refund (including trip protection).
If an activity is cut short early due to severe weather, rainchecks will be given to all guests. Full refunds are not available after the cruise leaves the dock, but rainchecks do not expire.
Refund and Rescheduling Policy
All sales are final, unless trip protection is purchased up front. No refunds, reissue to gift cards, or rescheduling will be permitted without trip protection.
Trip Protection Policy
Trip Protection must be added at the time of purchase. Trip Protection allows for rescheduling (subject to availability) or refund of tickets up to 120 minutes prior to departure time, for any reason. Tickets purchased within 120 minutes of cruise departure will be a final sale, and non-refundable. Refunds will reimburse for the full amount of each ticket, less the Trip Protection fees.
Trip Protection is voided and no refunds will be issued if (1) guest(s) arrive and check into the cruise, (2) guest(s) do not cancel at least 120 minutes prior to the departure time, or (3) guest(s) no show without notification.
