• Anclote Key Preserve State Park - Situated just north of Honeymoon Island, Anclote Key Preserve State Park offers a breathtaking expanse of protected coastline, renowned for its historic 1887 lighthouse, pristine white sands, and clear turquoise waters. On tranquil days, Captain Chris might extend the journey north to explore this untouched island, where dolphins and seabirds are frequently spotted. Visitors can wander along the beach, capture photos of the lighthouse, or simply float and savor the tranquility of Florida’s natural Gulf coast. (All charters are customizable and times are approximate.)
• Honeymoon Island State Park - Sail north past Dunedin and anchor near the serene tip of Honeymoon Island, a tranquil stretch of sand perfect for wading, swimming, or shell hunting away from the crowds. This protected area is celebrated for its calm waters and regular sightings of dolphins and manatees. (All charters are customizable and times are approximate.)
• Caladesi Island State Park - Only accessible by boat, Caladesi Island is one of Florida’s most stunning barrier islands. Step ashore to stroll its soft white beaches or float just off the coast. Captain Chris will share tales of local history and the unique marine life that inhabits this area. (All charters are customizable and times are approximate.)
• Clearwater Beach - Cruise south along the Clearwater Beach coastline for sweeping views of the white-sand beaches and the skyline from the water. If conditions permit, the journey will briefly venture into the Gulf to pass Clearwater Beach via open water — a perspective most visitors never experience.

One Tree Island (Stop)
