Is there still a Cycle Boat? 

Our Cycle Boat is still the same awesome party boat just without the pedals. We listened to the feedback and made the decision to install move comfortable seating and remove the pedals for 2026! From now on we will just be the Cape May Party Boat!

2

How many people can we fit?

Our cycle boat can fit up to 20 passengers. 

The double decker slide boat can fit 8-10 passengers. 

If you'd like to book both boats we can take parties up to 30 people! (Call us for details and booking)

You can add on tickets to your reservation anytime after booking.

3

Are your tours BYOB?

Yes! Beer, Wine, and Seltzers are welcome aboard but please be sure to drink responsibly and no hard alcohol! Glass bottles are allowed but must stay in your own cooler. The Captain has the right at anytime to refuse service to any customer that is overly intoxicated or belligerent on arrival during the cruise. 

4

Can we bring food/snacks?

Absolutely! We encourage you to bring any snacks or foods you would like, just remember you are on a boat! Some of your favorites are pretzels, sandwiches, charcuterie boards, etc. 

5

Cancellation and Refund Policy? 

  • All ticket sales are final and only refundable up until 2 weeks prior to the event or if Trip Protection is purchased at checkout. Trip Protection allows guests to reschedule or receive a refund in the event of cancellations made by Jersey Shore Cruises staff due to severe weather.

  • Our vessels are well equip with rooftop coverage and will operate rain or shine, but cruises may be canceled for unsafe weather conditions such as severe storms, high winds, or strong currents. Because weather can change quickly, we closely monitor forecasts and make all safety decisions in real time.

  • If Jersey Shore Cruises must cancel due to weather or unforeseen circumstances (like mechanical issues or marina closures), guests will receive either a full-value credit voucher or a refund to their original payment method only if Trip Protection was purchased. Passenger safety and customer experience are always our top priorities.

Trip Protection

READ CAREFULLY!​

Our Trip Protection is the perfect option for all our customers that are worried about cancellation of their cruise due to severe weather. If you add this on to your reservation, you will have the option to receive a full refund instead of a raincheck for the price of your tickets in the case of cancellation initiated by OUR STAFF due to severe weather. This protection DOES NOT cover any other cancellation. All other cancellations will be subject to our cancellation policy fees.

Do you have a bathroom onboard?

Yes, we are very excited to announce that all of our boats will have a bathroom for you to do your bizz.

 

Unfortunately, the slide boat does not have a full bathroom on board.  But there is a porta potty onboard that can be used for emergencies, otherwise you can stop at a local bar or take a swim!

Are children allowed aboard?

Yes, we welcome children of all ages to cruise with us. Any child under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. ​

Children age 12 and under must wear a life vest at all times. 

Passengers under the age of 21 are not allowed to consume alcoholic beverages. ID's will be checked prior to boarding. 

10

Do you supply life jackets?

Yes, we do supply USCG approved life jackets for everyone onboard all of our boats. If you plan on bringing children, please contact us so we can plan accordingly and make sure there are enough life vests!

We highly recommend bringing your own life vest for children 12 or under.

11

Should we tip our crew?

Yes, our captains and crew work very hard, not only during your cruise, but also behind the scenes to ensure a clean boat and smooth sailing. 15-20% tips are standard. 

12

What are the rules?

We want everyone to have a great time, but we have to make sure everyone gets home safe. 

  • As a safety concern there will be NO SMOKING or any other fire products such as cigarettes, cigars, smoking products, candles, etc. 

  • No glass bottles are allowed in our coolers and must remain in your own cooler. 

  • Standing on any furniture, bar tops, or coolers will not be permitted. We all known elevated surfaces and drinking alcohol do not add up!

  • Absolutely no jumping off the boat unless it is approved by your captain! Anyone that jumps off will be subject to a $1000 fine and the boat will immediately return to the dock and the cruise will be cancelled. 

13

Where do we park?

Please review your confirmation email for directions on where to park. If you can not find us please reach out to us via phone for further direction. 

14

When should we arrive?

We ask that the full group arrives 10-15 minutes early. Please be aware that if we have to wait for anyone before departing, that time will cut into your trip. 

15

Do I have to sign the waiver?

Yes, we ask that everyone signs the waiver before boarding or on their phone at the marina. We will have the option to sign the waiver using a crew members phone before boarding. You will not be allowed to board the boat until the waiver is signed.
