What To Expect
Clearwater Beach
Once you book your tickets, check your email for instructions to ensure a carefree visit with us. Meet at Clearwater Beach Municipal Marina. Check in 45 minutes prior to your scheduled departure at our ticket booth to receive your boarding pass(s). We pre board all passengers for a safety talk and then throw the lines off exactly at departure time! As we motor out of the Marina our First Mate will work on raising our sails. We then navigate Clearwater Pass between the barrier islands of Sand Key and Clearwater Beach to head offshore :) Once outside of the Clearwater Pass the Captain will shut down the engine and we will be completely under sail power. It is a unique and beautiful perspective of Clearwater Beach offshore. You may even catch a glimpse of Bottlenose Dolphins feeding or at play in the wake of our Schooner!

5.00Not the economy route but it was sailing not bobbing around on a pontoon boat. Great for adults. Not for kids. Bring your own wine or Champagne and enjoy the dolphins and the sunset.
Spectacular!

5.00This was the best experience. The captain and first mate were both wonderful, very friendly and informative. The sunset cruise was spectacular. We could have gone on a number of different cruises on boats filled to capacity. This one was a small intimate group. I am so glad we chose this one.
Amazing Experience!
