Frequently Asked Questions

Year-Round Tub Comfort

We understand that comfort is key, especially during the warmer months. That is why we continuously adjust the temperatures of our hot tubs year-round to ensure an optimal experience for our guests.

During the summer, we lower the tub temperatures to around 100 degrees. This, combined with the breeze while the boat is moving, provides a refreshing and comfortable experience. Additionally, each tub is equipped with shades to help shield you from direct sunlight.

There is also plenty of seating on the sides of tubs, so you don’t need to be submerged for the entire ride. We can make small adjustments to temperatures during your tour, just let us know. Your comfort is our priority on every tour!

Of course the answer is, anytime! However, here is our best attempt to describe how to choose the time of day that is best for you:

  • Daytime – This is the height of the “action!”  Start your day early and enjoy taking in all of the sights and activities of the day while you are relaxing in your hot tub.
  • Sunset – Anytime is beautiful, but sunset takes the cake! Boat traffic diminishes and the sun starts setting… breathtaking!
  • Night – Seeing the monuments and skyline all lit up is simply amazing!

One hundred percent of the gratuity goes to your crew, regardless of the method of payment you use.
