We specialize in wildlife and dolphin sail cruises. One benefit of being on a sailboat is the quietness they provide for dolphins and other wildlife. Our waterways are home to several large pods of Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins that are constantly on the move in our area. We work very hard to find the dolphins for you, it is very rare not to see them on our trips. Unfortunately, Federal regulations do not allow passengers to swim with the dolphins.  

We do not allow pets at this time for safety and comfort of the captain and other passengers.

Cancellations due to weather:

• Captain’s discretion, and the determination will be made at the time of sail. We monitor radar and weather very carefully and will try to keep guests apprised as the time for your sail approaches.
• We sometimes delay the start of a sail to allow weather to pass over. If we do get a storm and have to cancel, we will reschedule your trip or refund your trip.
