Great Experience! TripAdvisor

This is the 2nd time we went on the sand bar cruise with Marathon Mermaid, each time with a different captain (first Mike and most recently Booker). Both were great! Great experiences and we will continue to go out with the Marathon Mermaid on future trips.

The boat was very comfortable and plenty of shade. Crew was great. We choose this excursion so we could get in the blue water to enjoy the sand bar. Very glad we did. The scenery was beautiful we met some nice people and had fun. Timing of trip was very good. Glad that We had enough time in water and didn’t feel rushed. The day was Finished off with a smooth ride back to dock. Enjoyed our day. I would recommend.

Marathon Mermaids was a great experience for our family. We went for the Sandbar excursion which was around a 4 hours. A 40 min boat ride to the sand bar with great views along the way. The water was so clear and great for snorkeling and swimming. Captain Doug and first mate Jimmy were so nice and helpful. We will definitely be back the next time we are in Marathon.
