Q: What type of boat is it?

Depending on the time of year, we will use either the Lady Chadwick OR one of our 49 passenger powered catamarans (not a sailboat).

Q: May I bring my own drinks?

No – there will be a cash bar available on board depending on which vessel is used; The Lady Chadwick offers a full service cash bar while the Santiva and Playtime offer limited beverages on board for purchase.

Q: What is the difference between your different types of sunset cruises?

We offer THREE different types of sunset cruises and they are quite different. (1) The Wildlife Sunset Cruise is a 90 minute cruise where you will listen to a light narration and watch dolphins and wildlife for the first half of the cruise and then enjoy the sunset on the return. (2) Our Sunset Serenade Cruise is a 60 minute cruise with a local musician typically on the Lady Chadwick and (3) the Sunset Sailing Cruise is a 2-hour cruise aboard our 24-passenger sailing catamaran “Adventure”.

Q: What should I do if I see a manatee or dolphin?

Enjoy the moment and appreciate their grace and beauty. Do not reach out to them or get in the water to swim with them. The best way to enjoy their company is to observe them from a distance.
