Description

Specialties

See the Miami tourists rarely see. Premium small group boat tours exploring Miami’s legendary and hard-​to-​reach areas with expert local guides aboard 6-​passenger high performance Zodiac RIB™ boats on personalized 2-​hour Miami sightseeing tours.

Yes, we visit South Beach and celebrity mansions on Star Island but then we go where other Miami tours won’t take you, to the offbeat and out-​of-​the-​way locations so you can experience all of what makes our area unique. Our boat tour is fast and safe, allowing us to show you hard to reach hidden gems along with abundant marine life during 2-​hour action-​packed adventure boat tours visiting more than 40-​miles of Miami’s Biscayne Bay.

History

Established in 2008.

As a 5th-​generation South Florida native, the owner of Ocean Force Adventures knew that most Miami visitors were not experiencing some of the most remarkable historical, natural and unique landmark sites found in the world, all located within a 40-​mile radius of Miami’s Biscayne Bay. Because most of these sites are difficult to reach and accessible only by ocean and bay waters, it would take unique boats and knowledgeable guides to open them up for visitors and still have time to include the popular tourism locations closer to Miami Beach.

Using a powerful, safe and fun twin-​engine custom Zodiac RIB adventure boat and trained USCG-​licensed captains with local knowledge, Ocean Force Adventures came into being offering Miami visitors a chance to see not only the usual tourist spots such as celebrity mansions and city skylines but off-​the-​beaten-​path locations including historic Stiltsville in Biscayne National Park, up-​close encounters with dolphin, manatee and other marine life.

Ocean force Adventures, the most Informative and thrilling way to see Miami by water!
I was just tickled to finally take the time to experience Ocean Force Adventures. Located in the beautiful Miami Beach Marina, this two hour tour in a six seater zodiac RIB boat was a great way to discover Miami by water.
Not your «corky» slow tour, Captain. Brandon was full of interesting information that was not scripted, while the speed of the boat at times was a definite trill.
From celebrity homes, private islands, key Biscayne, port Miami, Downton, Miami River and my very favorite was how close we got to Stiltsville, one of Miami’s most unique and least heard off areas. I would highly recommend doing this excursion at least once to satisfy the adventurer in you!
Friendly notes:
*there is barely if any protection from the sun, bring sunblock, sunglasses, hat and maybe a shawl.
* You can stop by Monty’s Sunset for drinks or casual dining after your tour.
*Remember to tip the captain!
*It can get rocky and sometimes a bit wet.

We had a great time with Captain Matt! He gave us a fabulous tour and had all the inside information for the businesses, houses and neighborhood we breezed past. He is super friendly and reliable. I highly recommend booking a tour when in Miami. It will not disappoint.

Captain Matt is great, friendly knowledgeable and helpful. Boat is fast but that’s about the only thing it’s good at. No shelter from the Sun and terrible seats. Straddle them like an English riding saddle and not enough padding. Rough riding in this light boat. I felt sorry for the overweight person next to me. I was miserable from the butt beating and I’m fit. For the price I would rather have done the slow tour boat with real seats.

It’s not cheap at $ 150 per person, but then again I’m guessing dock space at the Miami Beach Marina isn’t cheap either. You’re in South Beach already and not much here is cheap so go ahead and book yourself on an Ocean Force Adventures tour. What a great way to get an overview of the area by water and on a recent trip it was an absolutely perfect way to start a visit. Matt was a perfect guide, very informative and helpful — and it turned out that even though the boat seats 6 guests we ended up being the only people on our particular tour and ended up with a private charter.
Great boat, great tour, great guide, what’s not to like? It’s a short cab ride from most areas of Miami Beach or if you have a car there’s free parking at the marina. For most people, taking this tour will be one of the best decisions you make on your visit to Miami Beach.

my boyfriend and i loved this tour. was definitely more expensive than the other boat tours out there but it was worth it. i hate being crammed on a boat with 100 other people. i also like how our guide (alex?) was informative and not all zany like some of the other tour guides i’ve had before. the boat goes fast at times — tie your hair back and don’t wear your hat. you won’t get wet and you’ll be able to take lots of pictures. hopefully of dolphins! i’d also suggest doing this tour at the beginning of your trip to miami — it was great to get a lay-​of-​the-​land and then choose which areas we wanted to explore more afterwards.

3rd time the charm? So my fiancé booked us on an afternoon tour (3pm?) the second day we arrived, however, due to the weather, Matt our tour guide recommended against going on that day and offered for us to come back for the 9am tour the next day. He did kindly bring us around the dock to show us some BIG fishes that swim up close to the pier to feed off left overs that fishermen throw back in the water, and a cluster of jelly fishes that are in the water during this time in Florida. I thought that was interesting in itself, and Matt just came off to me as a very nice guy.
Came back the next day at 9am as planned and the weather was still not suitable to take the boat out. Slightly disappointed, he recommended us to grab some breakfast at a close by restaurant and come back at 11am. FINALLY, at 11am the second day back, we set sail in the small, 6 person boat. The seats were actually quite comfy, and there’s a place for you to put your belongs underneath the seat to keep them dry.
The boat did go fast at times, but it was such a smooth ride, I was impressed. And, you really do see a lot of Miami on this tour. Matt’s very nice, friendly and informative and doesn’t mind going out of the way to find the dolphins if he spots them. =)
Overall, this was a very wonderful tour because you really see so much of Miami in a 2hr boat ride. It’s smooth, relaxing and very pleasurable. I would recommend bring a light layer as it does get a bit chilly (in Dec), and going 45mph on a boat will kick up some breeze for you. Worth the price you pay. Definitely a highlight of the trip.

Just did this for the second time; this time with my grown daughter who was visiting from out of town. It wowed us both, her first and my second trip with Ocen Force! So much fun! The tour part is interesting and thorough with lots of time for questions, and Captain Matt knew lots more, when we asked about things and he seemed to leave out all the «boring bits». Anyway, there were none. This is serious fun! The boat itself is fabulous, fast, a thrilling ride, but suprisingly comfortable, stable and safe feeling too. You cover over 40 Miles in two hours, but we still had lots of time to relax and watch the dozen or so Porpoises that «caught our wake» and rode with us, then played all around us while we stopped to watch them, just a few feet away from the boat. Too much cool stuff to tell, you need to go try it, even if you are a «Local». It is hands down, no holds barred the BEST tourist activity in Miami, and you get big kudos from your guests for picking it!
By the way, I am «62» not «32» and this is my kind of adventure, too!

This is definitely our kind of adventure! My husband and I are in our early 30s so the idea of a tour is not so appealing to us. But, you could hardly call this a tour beacuse it was so much fun! Reaching speeds up to 40mph with the wind blowing in our face and gorgeous views of Miami, Star Island, Fisher Island, Biscayne Bay, Key Biscayne, Virginia Key, Stiltsville and so much more! It probably helped that the weather was perfect and the waters were calm. It was fantastic! Captain Matthew was very knowledgable and kept the tour interesting. He was so awesome to take our photos too! Highly recommend to those who want to see everything you need to and have fun at the same time.

We are not the type of people that like getting in a big boat with 100 other tourists and go gawking around town. This is how we found Ocean Force Adventures. This tour was very accomodating, enjoyable and the perfect way to see Miami from the bay. The tour guide is very knowledgeable about the area (probably par for the course). Since there are only up to 6 people on the tour it is a lot more personable, you can ask questions, and if you are nice spend a little longer in an area or look further into something.
Unlike most businesses in Miami, the staff is professional, courteous, and most of all they communicate during the booking/​scheduling/​reminder process.
