Great comprehensive tour! - This was a wonderful experience. Our captain Collin did a great job explaining and identifying celebrity houses, Stiltsville, downtown Miami and the various spots. We saw many great sights in only a short 2 hours. Lots of fun!

Amazing trip around the highlights of Miami and to find invader no 66 in Stiltsville - I was searching for a company which provides boat trips to Stiltsville, and I found the perfect match. I had the pleasure to join captain Kim and two other guests for a trip around Miami including Stiltsville. I did a very touristic sunset cruise in a bigger boat, nothing to what captain Kim offered us. She is very knowledgeable and knows answers to all questions. The company Ocean Force Adventures is very responsive, quick in responding via SMS and very professional. For those who want to see the invader placed at one of the Stiltsville houses - this is the best address for such a trip. Thank you!

Great experience - Great boat trip with Captain Colin with a small group (only 4 of us on this trip). Colin has vast experience and knowledge of the bays around Miami which he shared with us and he was very engaging and friendly throughout. The trip took in the history of the area, celebrity and interesting houses, Fisher Island and Key Biscayne as well as downtown Miami. We travelled at speed out to Stiltsville which was fabulous to see. A great experience and we were also fortunate to see a dolphin close to the boat. Highly recommended

Fun on the waters of Miami! - My friends and I had an extraordinary time with our Captain Kim on this adventure. The tour was very safe, fun and informative, even for someone like me who was born and raised in Miami. I plan to invite other friends to share the same experience; it's that good! 5-Stars all the way, thank you! Robert Fiore
