About Back Bay Tours

The highlight of summer - a sunset cruise on the beautiful Indian River Bay! And this is an awesome cruise at that.  The boat & the crew are GREAT!  1st you pull into a darling marina off a beautiful shady canal.  The boat is clean & comfortable. There’s even a little bathroom! The crew is kind & very attentive & you’ll love Capt. Tom!  We did the sunset cruise which was so fun but next time I’ll want to do more time.  I highly recommend booking a cruise with Back Bay!! 

We had a great time with Captain Tom on our 3hr fishing tour. He was a great guide and helped us all out a lot! Very knowledgeable about the area and the bay. We will definitely be back! 

Captain Tom was excellent. Made sure everyone was set to catch fish, and was super nice. I maintained my 63-year record of never catching a fish, despite growing up with a family of fishermen on Lake Ontario…but all of the other five caught multiples. The dolphins playing alongside the boat were a special treat.  

Captain Tom was super great! We got lucky and saw some dolphins up close on our way out, which was amazing! And, Tom was so knowledgeable about the bay and wildlife- he was informative without being boring and that is not an easy thing! I would highly recommend the sandbar tour! 

I booked a sunset cruise for my four friends for the Friday before Labor Day and it was phenomenal! In addition to wonderful weather and a beautiful sunset, Captain Tom was very friendly and even took group photos for me and my friends and also got us back to shore in record time when the sun was finished setting and people needed to use the restroom. The pricing was fair and I really enjoyed the opportunity to rent a private boat for a girls weekend. I will definitely be back if the opportunity arises! 

Captain Tom and his son did a great job taking us on a sunset cruise around the bay. Great crew, boat, and time on the water! 10/10 experience. 

We have two children ages 2 and 6 and they absolutely loved the sandbar explorer trip. The entire experience was first class, from the quality of the boat built specifically for passenger comfort, to the incredibly knowledgeable captain. Not only did the entire family have a blast, adults included, we even managed to learn a few things about the sea life in the bay. I will absolutely be back again.
