We have over 30 stops across the region (10 in Fort Lauderdale, 12 in Pompano, 8 on the Water Trolley, and 1 in Hollywood).

It takes about three hours to go around the main Fort Lauderdale Route and end up where you started. Many people do just stay on for a boat ride, which is wonderful, however; we encourage you to explore this web site and ask the Water Taxi crew for advice on places to disembark for dining, cocktails, shopping, the beach and parks. Be sure to check the schedule for return pick-up times.

The Water Taxis typically run between about 9:45 and 10pm. It is important to check the schedule and place for the day. If you have any questions, you can always call the Guest Service Desk at (954) 467-6677. It is also important to note that while the Water Taxi captains do their absolute best to stay on schedule there are times when the Water Taxis fall behind due to weather, marine traffic, high guest loads and other factors beyond our control. If a Water Taxi does not arrive at its scheduled time at a particular stop, please be patient and call the Customer Service desk for clarification of the next arrival time. The customer service representatives have access to information on each Water Taxi’s location at any given time.

Yes! Guests who are already in possession of a ticket/ticket voucher will board first; Guests who need to purchase a ticket will board afterwards. Water Taxis are like a bus or train. Guests queue up and climb aboard, first come, first served. (Ticket holders first). If we hit the capacity limit set by the Coast Guard, guests who could not board the Water Taxi will wait for the next Water Taxi. We go to great lengths to have enough vessels in service to meet demand at any given time.

No worries! Screen shot or save the tickets to your cellular device and simply present them to the crew member upon boarding. Please call (954) 467 – 6677 between 8:30 AM – 8:00 PM and speak with one of our Customer Service Representatives.
