Islands
There are modes of transportation. There are modes of entertainment. The first is one bred on convenience. Island Skipper Cruises is NOT a mode of practical transportation. Even the most casual of walkers will outpace the cool offbeat fleet to the farthest reach of the park.
The fact that the Jurassic Park dock is actually a winding pathway away from the heart of Jurassic Park itself only adds to the inconvenience.
However, it's a scenic path through the very Inland Sea that provides a great view of the encircling islands. The skippers are also chock full of interesting park trivia.
It's not a round trip excursion. You either start at the far end of Port of Entry or at the mouth of Jurassic Park -- beside the picturesque back entrance to Visitors Center. Though, as long as you're not on the last leg of the day, you are welcome to go full circle.
When to ride? Don't waste crucial morning time when it can be spent on rides where the rides will build much later in the day. This is an ideal afternoon sojourn as long as you realize that neither port has a covered waiting area.

Great ride for tired feet
If you rode all the rides in the park then ride Island Skipper Tours! 3 reasons why to ride this ride.1 if your feet are tired and you don't feel like walking.2 if you came in the park and want to go to JP.3 if you want to go on a easy ride across the water.

This is good for when your legs are sore and you're gonna eat dinner at city walk this is the transportation you should take. It's perfect.

This ride wasn't the best of rides. It's okay if you're tired and you don't want to walk all the way back and forth. That's what I did.
