Who We Are
Now in its ninth season, Sea the City continues to captivate its guests with exhilarating jet-ski rides on the waters of NYC and unparalleled views of the City’s skyline. In 2020, as another means to embrace the views of NYC from its waters, we launched our first one-of-a-kind Hot Tub Boat. With rave reviews pouring in for this unique and more intimate way to enjoy being on the water, we have most recently brought this extraordinary Hot Tub Boat experience to the beautiful waters of Ft. Lauderdale.

Here’s What People Are Saying
I recently went out on this tour for my birthday party. All my girlfriends and I had a blast! We had a party of 12 girls but they were able to accommodate us with no problem. We doubled up on the jet skis but all were able to drive. So many awesome pictures and memories were created! An amazing experiences overall, will definitely be returning!
One of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had. The absolute greatest way to “sea the city” is by water on jet skis!
Oh gosh, this was so much fun! Definitely one of the best activities I’ve ever done over my ~8 years in NYC. The whole crew was amazing and tried to make…
Had an amazing time! Staff super friendly. Looking forward to coming back!
What an amazing time I had with the team at Sea the City!! I had only jet skied once before – so was definitely a bit of a novice at first, but by the time we hit the East River I was soaring! The views of lower Manhattan and midtown are excellent. We got to see Lady Liberty up close before zooming around the back of the island, so much fun!
Wow, we had an absolute blast. Jordan our tour guide was AWESOME. I highly recommend going all the way around manhattan, 3 1/2 hour tour, beautiful way to see the city! I’ll do it again next year!

We had an amazing experience. Thanks to Brittany our guide. She was really kind sweet. I recommend all of you to do it and ask for Brittany as your guide. This so be a must in your visit of New York.
Absolutely fantastic, perfect experience! Completely family friendly. Stunning views. Guides were super fun – and very competent and responsible. Very safe with maximum fun. Everyone was able to have the experience they wanted – some going faster and others more slowly. We are still raving. A unique way to appreciate the beauty of New York and the history of Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. Pay for the photo option – totally worth it.
Had the best time ever at sea the city! The staff was absolutely amazing and so much fun. This is the BEST idea for a special event, Bachelorette party, birthday party, or just a night out with your friends. The 90 minutes flew by we all wish it could’ve gone all night! Thank you all so much!
This was one of my favorite experiences ever. It was a beautiful view everywhere we looked, and the hot tub is the perfect temperature and the most comfortable. It’s a heavenly experience being on a boat while in hot water while the sun beams down. It’s among two of my epic hours I’ve spent. And the crew, were so sweet and nice and professional and helpful. They really made us feel taken care of and relaxed. I highly recommend doing this.
