“Easy booking online, easy to find, and a great time!! Boat is nice, not overly crowded. Captain did a great job. Used SunVenture twice during our vacation. Once from Destin and once from Okaloosa Island. Enjoyed the boat ride out from Okaloosa a little more. They can go a little faster. Kids loved that!! And it was easier traffic wise if you are staying in Fort Walton to use the Okaloosa Island location. But recommend both locations. Great service and you feel safe and don’t have to worry about a thing. Take a float to Crab Island and they will take care of blowing it up for you!!! Makes the trip even better!! There is a restroom on board which helped having kids on trip..” – June 2019 review from Heather

It’s All About the Value & Convenience on Our Cruises

 
destin florida dolphin sunset cruises svc ISunVenture Cruises is a much more affordable and convenient alternative to renting a boat in Destin Fl. Taking a Captain-Chartered Cruise is a fraction of the price of renting a pontoon boat, not to mention avoiding the hassle of driving the boat. Guests are invited to bring their cooler on-board and enjoy a day in the sun while our Captains drive. Now SunVenture Cruises makes it even more convenient with a second location at Okaloosa Island, offering more cruise options.
 
“Capt Lowry, Mark and Cynthia made our cruise to Crab Island worth every penny! Booked by phone with Cynthia and she was awesome with information! She was very helpful with directions and had plenty of answers to all my questions. There is no alcohol for sale at Crab Island anymore and you’re allowed to BYOB on this boat, just no glass. Capt Lowry and Deckhand Mark were awesome! So fun to talk to made sure everyone had a great time. Snacks and drinks on the boat (water, soda, etc) were $2 each, cash. You can also rent a paddleboard or kayak from them to try out around Crab Island! Our trip was a ton of fun and so much cheaper and safer than renting our own boat. Thank you Cynthia, Capt Lowry and Mark for a great time! We will be back!” – May 2019 review by Sarah

Our captain and 1st mate were nothing short of phenomenal and were very good with the kids. They made sure our dolphin tour was interactive and the fireworks were also amazing.

Enjoy the Best of Destin from the Water

Enjoy the Best of Destin from the Water

This week, Florida Travel + Life Magazine named Destin as one of the three best places to get on the water in the Florida. In addition to the famed deep-see fishing, the pristine, emerald green waters offer an array of recreational activities from sandbar parties at Crab Island to dolphin and sunset cruises.

Getting on the water has never been easier or more fun than with the SunVenture. The SunVenture cruises daily for dolphin / sunset cruises, Crab Island excursions, Harbor Fireworks Cruises and private charters.

“The Harbor is the crown jewel of Destin and this new location offers our guests convenient access to all our emerald green waters have to offer,” stated James Murray, General Manager for SunQuest Cruises. “From picturesque views of the sunset descending over the Destin bridge to a quick and safe trip to Crab Island, the SunVenture is minutes away from every type of adventure on the water.”

Upon embarking on the SunVenture I, guests will be immersed in custom Guy-Harvey ocean-inspired artwork throughout the boat, indicative of the scenes they will experience on the water. Coast-guard licensed captains give patrons a narrated cruise through the harbor before heading out to the open waters.

The close proximity to the water and open-air sky deck offers SunVenture guests the closest views of the dolphins on an hour and half narrated and educational cruise. The flexible cruise schedule offers dolphin cruises mid-morning as well as during the beautiful sunset hours.

The most popular cruise option is SunVenture’s Crab Island excursions. Located at the Destin Bridge, Crab Island is a shallow sand bar where locals and visitors alike anchor their boats to play and relax in the pristine emerald green waters. SunVenture’s Coast-guard licensed captains charter the three and a half hour cruise so guests can enjoy a worry-free day on the water.

Every Thursday, the SunVenture sets out for a magical evening on its Harbor Fireworks cruise. This one hour cruise explores the Destin Harbor and offers guests the best seat in the house for fireworks as the sky above them illuminates with bright colors.

SunVenture’s private cruises in Destin offer the boat and the captain for any group up to 49 people. The catamaran features a state-of-the-art sound system, open deck, event planners and catering options. Many groups have taken their celebrations to the water for a memorable experience, including brunches, bachelor / bachelorette parties, birthdays and weddings.
