What our guest are saying
Nights of Lights during Sunset cruise is beautiful!
We just got back from our sunset cruise with Captain David and his lovely wife. They were wonderful. The boat was very spacious, and we had it all to ourselves. It was a beautiful evening on the water and the sunset over Saint Augustine was beautiful. We were a group of two couples. We enjoyed champagne and cheese while watching dolphins in the river. Saint Augustine has their Nights of Lights celebration going on at this time and it is amazing to see from the water. All of the buildings are covered with Christmas lights, and we were able to enjoy the views without being in the crowds in town. We would recommend this to anyone who wants a nice, private cruise on the river. We will do it again.
What a wonderful experience!
We recently took a two-hour cruise with Captain David. What a wonderful experience for our entire family. His pontoon boat is in great condition and was very comfortable for everyone. We saw several dolphins swimming in the river, which our children will never forget. Captain David let the kids take over the Bluetooth system, so they were picking all of the music during our cruise. We will definitely book another cruise with them again.
A very fun and relaxing day
If you get the chance, I highly recommend hiring Doodle Cruises for a day on the water. Our day consisted of cruising in the intracoastal waterway with great views of Saint Augustine. Later, the captain took us to a small island where we were able to get off the boat and explore. The captain brought inflatable rafts for us to float on while we got some sun. We were also able to bring our favorite drinks which was nice. After spending some time at the little island, we stopped at a local waterfront restaurant for some drinks and food. Then we headed back to the dock. It was a very fun, relaxing day on the water. Thank you!
