About this experience
Hop aboard your own personal Mini-Powerboat with seating for 2! From there, you are free to explore Tampa's waterways how ever you wish. Want to go North on the winding Hillsborough river? Go for it! Care for a quick trip along Bayshore Blvd or Davis Islands, getting a glimpse at some of the most impressive houses in Tampa? Don't let us stop you! Or maybe the open waters of Hillsborough Bay are more your style, with the wind in your hair while dolphin watching. Either way, you can choose your own path and the sites you want to see!
