Speed across Destin’s emerald waters, explore the harbor and Crab Island, and watch for dolphins on this narrated 60-minute ride.

About this tour

Feel the rush of open water on a Destin Speedboat Tour, where emerald Gulf waves and lively coastal scenery set the scene for an exhilarating hour. A captain and crew narrate the ride as you speed through Destin Harbor, Choctawhatchee Bay, and the waters around Crab Island. Keep an eye out for dolphins between high-speed runs, and take in the views from a patriotic-themed boat with room for up to 14 passengers.

A canopy offers shade and weather protection, while an onboard cooler with ice lets you bring your own snacks and non-glass drinks. You may get splashed, so wear clothes you don’t mind getting wet. The tour is suitable for all fitness levels, but children must be at least 42 inches tall, and riders ages 0–4 are not permitted. It is not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with poor cardiovascular health.

Choose a Destin Speedboat Tour for a lively way to see the harbor, bay, and Crab Island. Free parking is available at Gilligan’s Marina, and free cancellation is offered. Bring your sense of adventure and get ready to feel the Gulf breeze.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 7 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Destin
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.5. Top 31% in Destin means it ranks in the top 31% of tours in Destin by this score.
