Private tours are the dominant format here. 71% of the options (12 out of 17) are tagged as private tours, allowing you to charter the vessel for your party alone.

Most tours last between 3 and 8 hours, with a median duration of 7 hours. This suggests that the majority of experiences are half-day or full-day excursions rather than quick hour-long rides. If you have limited time, look for the shorter 3-hour options, though they represent a small fraction of the total inventory.

Yes, booking ahead is recommended. While 100% of the options offer instant confirmation, roughly one in six tours (18%) is flagged as likely to sell out.

Inclusions vary significantly by price point. Only about a third of the options (35%) include a guide, and roughly a quarter provide fuel and the boat itself.
