About this tour
A 4-hour party boat cruise to Eleanor Island sandbar in John's Pass for ages 21+, aboard a 50-foot catamaran. You'll anchor in shallow waters where hundreds of weekend boats gather, with a full bar on board (open bar passes available for purchase), satellite TV, onboard restroom and floating toys. Bring sunscreen and food; your own alcohol isn't permitted. Suits groups after a daytime drinking experience in a social, boat-heavy setting.
Highlights
- 50-foot crewed catamaran with bar, satellite TV, onboard restroom
- Eleanor Island sandbar — shallow waters packed with weekend boats
- All-you-can-drink pass available (purchased on arrival)
- Floating toys and water amenities included
- Four-hour duration; 21+ age restriction enforced
- Ladder entry required; moderate fitness level needed
- No outside alcohol or large coolers allowed
What to expect
You'll board via ladder and settle onto the catamaran as it heads to the John's Pass sandbar. Once anchored in the shallow waters off Eleanor Island, you're free to swim, use floating toys, grab food you've brought, and order drinks from the onboard bar (open bar passes sold separately). The boat stays put for the main portion of the 4 hours while the social scene unfolds around you — expect dozens of other boats, a party atmosphere and heavy weekend crowds.
Throughout, you have access to the bar, restroom and satellite TV on board. As the afternoon winds down, the catamaran departs and returns you to the marina. There's no guided activity or structured itinerary — the draw is the sandbar location and the floating social venue itself.

Good to know
This suits groups of friends aged 21+ after a casual day-drinking experience in a high-energy, social atmosphere. It's not recommended if you have spinal injuries or can't climb a ladder to board. You'll need at least moderate fitness to manage the ladder and time on the boat. Crowds are heavy on weekends — expect dozens of other boats anchored nearby. Outside alcohol and large coolers aren't permitted, so budget for onboard bar pricing. Bring your own food (sandwich, snacks) as no catering is mentioned. The shallow sandbar means swimming is possible but depths vary. All-you-can-drink passes must be purchased upon arrival, not pre-booked. Service animals are allowed.
