My husband and I took their 90-minute Island Tour and it was amazing. The Captain (and owner) Cyn Delee and her first mate, Cameron, were so wonderful and shared the rich history of Cedar Key and the nearby islands. Our favorite part - the dolphins riding the wake. They were sooooo close! That was actually the best part of our entire trip to Cedar Key, so when you are there… it’s a must! Next time we will do their river cruise.

This was a truly enjoyable experience. My husband surprised me with a boat tour for Mother's Day. The whole boat ride was fantastic! Young First Mate Osteen and Capt. Cyn Delee really knew their stuff and delivered the goods. The history of the area as well as the actual boat ride was exceptional. One of the many highlights of the tour was at the end, with the dolphins riding the wake of the boat. Never experienced any thing like it! Will definitely go again, and highly recommend this tour.

Wish I could give the actual tour a rating but I was not able to take a tour. I had called & emailed ahead of time --- several times--trying to make a reservation. Always some kind of excuse as to why they couldn't help me. So, figured I'd just show up & take my chances on a spot being available. Upon arrival I was VERY glad I had not given them my money. There was NO ONE any place close to their dock and again didn't answer phone. The pic here in no way resembles what I saw in mid-March. I have attached my pics. I asked the folks at the place I stayed what was up. They said the company is in the middle of a very nasty sale with lots of complications. So.... until you see reviews dated after April 2024 that people have actually been able to take a tour.... I'd advise STAY AWAY!

Wife Cathy, friend Marsha, and I made a day excursion to Cedar Key from Gainesville for an afternoon Coastal Tour with Captain Phil and five other passengers. Captain Phil had been giving these tours for several years and was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Cedar Key and surrounding islands, and also has extensive knowledge of local birds and other wildlife. His friendly narrative was absolutely entertaining and enjoyable. The weather was perfect for a serene, relaxing experience. We had gone on the Coastal Tour in the past, but it was just as much fun again, this time with a special friend, and we will likely go again someday in the years ahead. Captain Phil's presentation is extemporaneous rather than sounding scripted or rote, and he's quick to respond to questions. We highly recommend visiting Tidewater Tours and Cedar Key.

Great trip. Very interesting history of Cedar Key and a much different perspective of the island from the water. Would definitely recommend Tidewater Tours.
