Frequently Asked Questions

We create unique outdoor memorable experiences that often become tradition! Get together with friends and family, birthday celebrations, bachelor/bachelorette parties, team builders, company outings, date nights, retirement parties, themed nights out – the possibilities are endless! The price includes a two (or three) hour rental, and the Paddle Pub Experience. You’ll meet your US Coast Guard Licensed Captain, and your party host who will do everything in their power to ensure your party has the time of their lives! Be sure to bring your own beverages, snacks and ice (we do not have ice on-site yet)! We have coolers, cups, koozies and a clean restroom aboard for when the drinks pile up! There are 12 pedaling stations that power the huge paddle wheel in the back of the boat which we will use to make our way through Fort Lauderdale. Your host will get some music and party games going if you’d like! We might even have some little surprises along the way! We also have a front lounge/dancing area, a bumping sound system to sync up your tunes, and some party lights should you Paddle Pub at night! It will be a memory or in some cases a partial memory, but either way, your host will be sure to snap some great pics to last a lifetime!!!

All tours begin and end at our Cycle Party shop, located at 220 SW 3rd Ave, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33312. Parking can be limited on the weekends so we suggest carpooling or Uber.

Please arrive at least 30 minutes before your reservation at our dock to allow time for check-in procedures, any outstanding paperwork, and the orientation.  Your rental period will begin promptly at your scheduled start time and you will return by the scheduled end time. NOTE: Parking can be very difficult to find as the street parking is public parking that we do not control.  However, there is paid parking at the hotel.

Groups of up to 26 passengers can go on the Paddle Pub. There are 12 pedaling seats, standing room, a dance area, and a front lounge where guests can sprawl out. Groups as small as 2 can book individual tickets for our public mixer tours, which often turns into your new friends group!

Our cruises are 2 or 3 hours. Please call to inquire about additional time.
