General Information for all Nights of Lights Cruises with Florida Water Tours

Florida Water Tours operates two vessels for Nights of Lights Cruises:

• 45-foot Osprey is a pontoon boat with an onboard bar, and most of the Nights of Lights trips aboard the Osprey are for adults only.
• The 35-foot Island Breeze is also a pontoon boat, and you may bring alcohol, soft drinks, and snacks aboard. Most cruises aboard the Island Breeze are family-friendly.

Florida Water Tours offers complimentary hot chocolate and 3D glasses to every guest. The vessels have windows that can open and shut, so on colder evenings they can be lowered for extra warmth. If it's chilly, dress warmly and bring blankets. You can purchase blankets, souvenirs, snacks, and beverages in Florida Water Tours' boutique shop.

Please arrive 15 minutes before departure to check in and hear the captain's mandatory safety briefing.
