My family of four had the best day with Captain Joe and Cosmo! Joe was knowledgeable about the sights and was a friendly and considerate host. My teens enjoyed using the slide, jumping off the boat, snorkeling, and using a sifter to find cool shells. The sights were beautiful. This excursion was the highlight of our trip to Siesta Key. I will definitely book again next time we visit.

Such a fun experience. Joe is an excellent captain. He accommodated our wishes and needs. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting Siesta Key

We had a fantastic and fun experience with captain Joe and his skipper Cosmo. Captain Joe took us on a tour of beautiful homes in the bay. He brought us to sandbars, where we spent a couple hours enjoying the beach, he provided a lily pad, toddler inflatable toys and a slide. He was so patient with the "littles" in our party. Great weather too. Thanks for a memorable day. I highly recommend Captain Joe and Cosmo, his pup, on Siesta Funship Cruise!

We had a great day out on the water with Captain Joe and his first mate Cosmo. If you're looking for 4 hours of fun in the Sarasota area, you need to book a trip on the Siesta Funship. This is definitely something I'll do again when entertaining out of town guests. Everyone in the group had a great time!

Great way to spend the day! Fun family day, snorkeling, finding sand dollars, saw manatees, relaxing and making memories on the beach and sandbars. Captain Joseph and Cozmo were amazing! Definitely recommend and will do again!

This is a must do for anyone looking to have a great time on the water. Captain Joseph and Cosmo are a great team and they made our day amazing. The ship had a great sound system and plenty of ice for our beverages. The slide was also a lot of fun! We brought our dog who became fast friends with Cosmo.

Siesta Funship never disappoints! This was our family’s 3rd year in a row with Captain Joe and we always have a blast. He is so nice and welcoming and always points out dolphins or manatees. We found tons of sand dollars, went paddle boarding and of course utilized the slide! We love it!

Best trip ever!! We had a great time and captain Joe was amazing! He made sure we all had the perfect spot to snorkel to find shells! The whole day was filled with smiles laughs & fun! Cosmo was a great bonus!

captain joe gave us the best experience! we found huge sand dollars and pretty shells. 10/10 experience!

Had a fabulous time! Captain, his niece AND their dog were awesome and made our cruise a great time. Highly recommend- we will definitely be taking this trip with them again.

This was by far the best part of our trip. We were a bachelorette party and there was so many things to do. We saw manatees and dolphins which was so exciting. The captain was very professional and fun. Also he took great photos! Do not hesitate… book now! You will not regret it.

We had a great day with Joe and his dog Cosmo! He had all the toys needed for a great day. Will definitely book again next year.

Was a great day with guide and his dog cosmo. Seen dolphins and fun on the sand bar sand dollars sea urchins Can’t go wrong with this trip

I had such a great experience on the Funship!! The crew was awesome - had a big cooler with ice waiting for us when we arrived and took us all over the area. We spent time exploring the area on the boat, parked it by a beach so we could swim and go down the slide and even saw some dolphins! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a fun boat activity.

Captain Joe was very accommodating to our entire family. He was very knowledgeable and was able to bring us to all the great spots for swimming, dolphin watching and sightseeing. His dog Cosmo was a great first mate.

Really nice day out with Captain Joe and Cosmo. Big boat with a ton of toys for kids. Joe was very nice and had a lot of good information about the Sarasota area, would go out again if we are back in the area.

Captain Joe is amazing! He knows all the spots to see manatees and dolphins and he is really fun! Second year in a row we've booked this tour with Joe and would highly recommend it!

We took a 4-hour boat ride this week with 4 adults, twin 7-year olds and a 2 year old. Started off with a leisurely cruise looking at the million dollar homes and enjoying the sunshine and good music. Captain Joe was hoping to spot some sting rays for us but no luck. We then cruised over to the sandbar for some swimming on the beach and playing with the water toys. Hopped back on boat and spotted dolphins! Kids LOVED that! (Ok, adults did too!). Captain Joe was incredibly nice, engaged with our kids, and overall gave us a great experience. As dog lovers, having Cosmo the little dog on board was also a treat! Big thank you to Captain Joe!!

I booked a half day cruise for a group of 13 girls as part of my sisters bachelorette weekend. Captain Joe was super accommodating and even reached out to me a few days in advance of our trip to ensure that he was keeping an eye on the weather to make sure we were safe and able to enjoy our time on the water. Captain Joe and Matt (and Captain Cosmo - the dog) took us to a sand bar where they provided a lily pad, chairs and floats to use for lounging. We had a blast going down the water slide! Water and a cooler was provided as well which was so nice. All the girls said that the boat trip was one of the best parts of the weekend. We even saw dolphins and sand dollars! I’m so happy I booked with Siesta Funship and HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for a fun time with friends or family. Thank you Captain Joe & Matt for being great hosts and especially for having Cosmo as a boat dog who we all fell in love with. Hope to be back in Siesta Key soon!

Captain Joe and Cosmo (the dog) were a blast! They were very accommodating and even took us to meet up with some friends that also rented a pontoon. Knew all the best spots to go and sights to see. Highly recommend!
