Awesome evening! - Highly recommend! Capt. Steve and first mate Chris were professional & friendly. Made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable. Schooner was spotless and in great shape. Lovely evening watching the sunset, listening to music and seeing dolphins. Definitely will book again!

Highly recommend! - My husband and I had a wonderful time on the evening sunset cruise - Schooner Clearwater. Captain Steve and Christian were outstanding and made our sail even more enjoyable. They only allow a limited number of passengers which made it very intimate.

Schooner Sunset Cruise! - It was a beautiful experience sailing with Captain Tim and first mate Jack. Initially I spotted this classic schooner while on Sand Key Beach during sunset and I told my husband, we had to do this! The weather was perfect although a little choppy at the bay but all was calm once we sailed the gulf. We spotted dolphins along the way, enjoyed the majestic sunset, and relaxed the rest of the time. We appreciated that Jack chilled our Sangria and cheese. Also kudos to first mate Jack since we were his first official group that he would take on first mate responsibilities! He did a fantastic job! He was such a pleasant young man and Captain Tim was just so chill and funny. We highly recommend!

Best excursion for Clearwater Beach sunsets! - This sailing cruise was excellent and so worth the cost. The captain and his crew were very talented and provided a safe and enjoyable experience. The sunsets in this area are spectacular and to experience one from a beautiful schooner was special. I highly recommend this. I’ve also included some pics of the schooner from our resort to give perspective. Nice Job!

Relaxing - They should be ready to be totally taken care of with drinks and relaxation. Awesome crew, Steve is an expert in sailing, more people should get to know him!

Best Sunset Cruise on Clearwater Beach - This is a beautiful schooner and not overly packed with guests. Only about 15 I believe, making it very comfortable and a great way to get on the water for a sunset cruise and a view of the shores of Clearwater Beach. Capt. Steve and first mate Christian are top notch! Great sailors! I am a local and I 100% recommend! Great evening! Well worth every penny.

Their last minute cancelation worked out well for us. - I would avoid this company. We booked a sailing trip and the operator canceled while we were in the Uber on the way to the dock! They claimed bad weather. Fortunately for us, the weather was great, like no bad weather at all, and we were able to hop on another sunset cruise after they abruptly canceled on us. The other cruise was much cheaper, had better communication and provided drinks and entertainment. It actually worked out very well. We feel we avoided a bad trip by their last minute cancelation. The sailboat looked dated and appeared to have very little room. I wouldn't try them again next time.
