Unique 5 Hours-Boat Tour to Raccoon Island from Fort Lauderdale
Overview
Hop aboard a Baymingo boat and set off on a fun-filled cruise through Fort Lauderdale’s scenic waterways all the way to Sandspur Island (also known as Beer Can Island), affectionately called Raccoon Island.
During this 5-hour adventure, you’ll enjoy a relaxing ride along the Intracoastal, spotting yachts, luxury homes, and tropical scenery before arriving at the island. Bonus, Dolphins are often spotted playfully swimming in the bay.
Once there, meet the friendly and playful raccoons that make this spot so famous—they’re surprisingly gentle and curious!
Bring your family or friends for a day of laughter, exploration, and unforgettable memories. Depending on the time spent on the island, we may also make a short stop at the famous Haulover Sandbar before heading back.
