Let's see how big you can possible smile. Board our speed boat located in the Destin Harbor and take a quick tour of the harbor and East Pass as we make our way to open waters by Crab Island. Then climb onto the inflatable banana shaped tube and prepare for the most fun you can possible have. A wet and wild ride or a phenomenal tour of the beautiful Destin waters. Your choice. The crew will provide service like you have never experienced and truly care about being a positive memory for you and your friends or family. Great for all ages. High quality photos available that are great for Facebook friends. Around 50-75 HQ photos available for all riders to download. We are located behind Electric Cowboy on the Destin Harbor. 314 Highway 98 (Harbor Blvd)

“Great Banana Boat Ride! Definitely Recommend”

Reviewed 8 April 2012

Our family had two young children (ages 11 &13) who really enjoyed the Banana boat ride. Both Chris and Derek really went out of there way to make it an enjoyable experience. We also purchased the photo package and got over 80 great shots to share with other family members and friends back home in Michigan. Definitely would recommend this! More
