The Island Hopper


The Island Hopper has been around since we've been coming to Cedar Key - 20 years. In fact, this is the boat, which in 1989, we took for a sunset cruise! It is still in business and in this photo is coming back into the dock after a run out to the islands.

Hopping between which islands? The boat does look like something really old, but its quality is admirable.

I just love the water there.

There are a number of small islands (uninhabited) off of Cedar Key. When we took our sunset cruise, we stopped at a couple of them...people go out there to sunbathe, picnic, swim, and the other thing people do on uninhabited islands. :-)

That sounds like fun. Do they drop you off in the morning and pick you up later when you've roasted?

Adorable boat and it looks very well preserved!
Beautiful shot Jacob!

@ Ciel - They have several different plans: one is exactly as you suggest...they will drop you off and pick you up later. Other plans are basically a quick visit and then there's the one we took, where we made a quick visit as the sun was setting! Fabulous!

I always try to get what your photos might be from the headline. Today I was thinking grasshopper : )

Sounds like fun for those that do not suffer from motion sickness.
