Sunset/Afternoon Cruise
Had a wonderful sunset cruise with Capt. Gary. We brought our own snacks and watched the world go by. Not only did we see dolphins, but Capt. Gary knows how to make just the right amount of boat wake, so they jumped and swam behind the boat for several minutes. It was our own private show! We watched the sun set over the Gulf of Mexico, and though it was dark when we came back to the dock, this part of the ride was really special too. I highly recommend a trip with Capt. Gary.

We have been on several sunset cruises with Captain Gary. It is such a great way to go out with friends and see the area. Captain Gary is so knowledgeable. He will cruise boca ciega bay, maybe some of the gulf and we often see dolphins. So relaxing and fun! Perfect excursion - highly recommended!
