    (3 Hour Tour – Sailing)

    We had a great time! Recommend 100%

    The BYOB option was nice and would recommend. Great sound system throughout the boat so need to bring your own speaker. Would bring jackets and maybe even blankets if your going during a not super warm time. Also recommend bringing food and water especially if you are planning on drinking. All of ours got eaten up. Sunscreen and sunglasses as well. Flip flops or crocs are a smart choice and dont forget towels either.

    Phenomenal experience!

    Captain Wes and his son made our experience so memorable and really went out of the way to ensure we had a wonderful time.
