A unique eco adventure complete with a onboard learning tank! Explore and interact in 3 different eco zones. We take a quick visit into the Atlantic Ocean along the beautiful Space Coast and then into the majestic Banana River Lagoon all while exploring the wonders of the beautiful yet busy Port Canaveral & Canaveral Locks that link them. Along with dolphins, we will look for manatees, sea turtles, many different species of birds, jellyfish, sea rays, crabs, sharks, and even sometimes whales. The possibilities are endless when it comes to mother nature, and we are excited to be able to show you the many creatures and interesting historical sights that we have here in the sunshine state! We are located in Cape Canaveral near Cocoa Beach, Merritt Island, and Melbourne. We are also a short drive from Orlando and the Disney / Universal Studios area. Our boats are docked in Port Canaveral, the safest Port on the East Coast of Florida. Our custom Eco Tour boat is specifically designed to make each trip an Eco Adventure! It is an open air / covered design with comfortable seating. You can easily move around the boat to see anything and everything! We are the only tour boat in our area that has an On-Board Aquarium filled with fun creatures for you to see, learn about, and possibly even touch! Our boat is certified to take up to 13 passengers each trip, which is small enough that you get personal attention and can see most everything we pass. …

Most charter boats don't take more than 6 people, so being able to take our party of 7 was great. What a trip it was. The captain (Ian) is very knowledgeable and able to tell us exactly what we can and can't keep and has been doing this kind of stuff pretty much his whole life. He found us some great spots, and went above and beyond during the trip. Highlight of the trip was when he helped us snag a large bull shark! They were great about telling us what we needed to do, but letting us actually do it. We actually hooked a second one, but it ended up snapping the line on that one. They filleted what we caught as soon as we got back to the pier and we were able to get it cooked right away at the restaurant at the pier, and took home the rest of what we weren't going to eat. This was my first experience deep sea fishing. This was, by far, the best fishing trip I could have asked for and set a VERY high bar for any future fishing trips to follow in the future.

I went on the Time and Tides eco tour with my good friend and her family, it was great! Being a native Floridian, I had been to the Cape Canaveral many times but was surprised out how much I didn't know. Our tour guide was very informative and it was great to hear about the area and learn things I had never heard of before. The staff was friendly and great with the small children in the group. They also had a cooler with water and Gatorade for passengers. We saw sea turtles, dolphins, red fish, and many native birds. They also had a fish tank and woukd let the children interact with them. I would recommend this to anybody from out of town or any local resident. Lots of information for any age group. They were also very helpful to a group member who got sea sick. A+ in my book! Looking forward to going on the fishing charter they have!

Sea turtle on eco tour

We took the eco tour and it was so amazing. They knew so much about the ocean and my kids absolutely loved every second. We saw so many dolphins, turtles and they also have a variety of sea creatures in a tank aboard. My kids were most excited about pilot fish. I highly recommend these guys, they are so much fun on top of it all.

I scheduled a private charter with Time and Tide Tours for my mother-in-law's sea burial. I arranged this through Captain Dustin who was very empathetic and provided suggestions for how to make the most of our experience. Information was thoroughly communicated and he provided multiple dates/times to choose from for our experience. On the day, the boat was a 38-foot Delta and Captain Rick took us out the legal 3 nautical miles for the ceremony. He and the other member of his crew (my fault for not making a note of his name) went to the top to give us privacy. He provided many options for how to position the boat - anchor, adrift, towards the wind, away from wind... - and he provided education about the lat/long coordinates and took a picture with my phone of the digital coordinates/date/time for a memory. The captain and crew were very friendly and engaged in conversation and answered questions during transport. For this private charter, we were permitted to bring whatever we wanted/needed onto the boat as long as it was legal, did not pose a safety risk, and would not negatively impact the environment. Note: We did not bring animals and did not inquire about such. I would highly recommend Time and Tide Tours for whatever charter needs you may have.

We took a half day deep sea fishing trip with Captain Dusty. It was completely fantastic. We had 7 in our group - 3 adults and 4 kids (ages 8-12). This was the *only* private charter in the port that could take more than 6 people. I will admit that I was nervous that the kids would be bored with a 6 hour fishing trip. I couldn't have been more wrong. My kids are already asking to go again. My son got to reel in a 55" barracuda and my 8 year old daughter caught a gorgeous mahi mahi. The crew were awesome. Took care of everything so all we had to do was enjoy. I have a freezer FULL of delicious fish and more importantly my family has memories we will cherish. Also, I definitely recommend going in the morning rather than the afternoon trip.

Excellent shark fishing adventure. The captain and first hand were friendly and knowledgeable, and made the trip memorable. Patience is a must, but when the beasts start hitting then it's as exciting as expected. Really like the catch, tag, and release program. Looking forward to tracking our sharks. As for the keeper, we're looking forward to a tasty meal. Great time !!!

Our family wanted a private fishing charter, and with short notice. We were pleased to find a spot with Time&Tide Tours. Ian, our captain was young but experienced and the first mate Derek is new to the area from the East where he fished tuna. These guys are knowledgeable and personable. We were treated kindly and respectfully. We didn't have a lucky day for fish and suffered a little sea sickness from the swells but we all said we'd go again. The guys worked hard to get us some fish but it just wasn't our day. Just the day before, we saw this boat come in with a haul so we know there's some luck involved. We'll fish with them again.

This was by far the best time I've had out on the water with my family ever! The attention that was given to all on the boat, especially my grandson and the rest of the children, was awesome. The hands on opportunity for the children to touch and learn about some of the fish they had in the aquarium was a unique learning experience for all. The crew was great, everyone was made to feel like family and our comfort was their main concern throughout the whole tour. Best day ever....!!

My husband, 2.5 year old son and myself went on an eco tour this May. The boat was safe and clean with lots of shade. It was the perfect size for actually learning while on board. The crew were really friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. They taught us so much, even if we hadn't seen wildlife from the boat, it would have been valuable. We did however see/learn about TONS of wildlife including a group of dolphins who swam with our boat. We found free parking easily in the area, and there was a restaurant with bathrooms right by the docks (go beforehand, the boat bathroom isn't ideal). I highly recommend time and tide tours, a great experience with lots of memories made, thank you!!

I have been visiting Cape Canaveral every winter for 5 years now. Love the weather. My son and wife came to visit last week and we decided to take a tour. We had a fantastic time on the tour. The Captain and 1st Mate were really knowledgeable about the coastal waters. Things I never knew before. They let everyone on the boat touch the Man of War Jelly fish, and told us all about them, and said only the tentacles were poisonous . We got to touch an octopus, a puffer fish and saw various species of birds. We had a great time and will do this again.
