Nautilus Boat Tours is a family owned and operated Tour Boat company traveling the Southwest Florida waterways for over 16 years. I'm Jay Stemen, owner of Nautilus Boat tours; along with my wife Trudy and a great Corporate staff which includes management, captains, and crew - we are involved in the daily activities of Nautilus Boat Tours. Everything from Sunset cruises to Nature cruises to Weddings, Private Dinner parties to Birthdays.....Custom designed parties are our specialty! Nautilus Boat Tours has two commercial vessels: Nautilus I and Nautilus II. Our Nautilus I is a 40 foot catamaran tour boat with one restroom on board and is licensed to carry 40 passengers, 1 captain and 1 crew. Our Nautilus II is a double decker catamaran which is also 40 feet in length with two restrooms on board and is licensed to carry 78 passengers, 1 captain and 2 crew. Our vessels and crew are certified and inspected by the United States Coast Guard and meet all commercial requirements. The Nautilus vessels are docked at the Vanderbilt Beach Marina, one block north of The Ritz Carlton Hotel, North Naples. We travel in the Gulf of Mexico and through the intercoastal waterways. Join us for a journey to some of the world's most fantastic nature and sunsets of Southwest Florida. We have scheduled nature, sunset, lunch and dinner cruises throughout each month all year round. You can see the beautiful homes of Vanderbilt along with a close-up encounter with our dolphins, manatees, stingray, and tropical birds throughout the mangrove trees. The captains can narrate the cruise or you can listen to fun tropical music to enjoy the journey! Both vessels are available for private charters during your selected time periods throughout the entire week and weekends. We would appreciate the opportunity to serve you. We can assist you in all your chartering needs, which include catering, decorating, live music, DJ's, or just CD's. We will customize to fit your needs. If you want to bring your own food or you want someone to prepare it for you we can assist you! We can organize beach party luaus, holiday parties, happy hours, weddings, corporate parties, surprise parties, bachelor parties, or any party you can dream of! We also can bring you and your friends to the 4th of July fireworks, offshore boat races, jet ski races, sightseeing, shelling and to a private country club for lunch or dinner or a fun restaurant on the water! Nautilus Boat Tours will be happy to cruise with you on all future endeavors.
