Captain Jim was an excellent guide! He was well prepared and provided many details along our tour. The sailing was wonderful, and we saw several dolphins and other wildlife. I would definitely recommend Shamrock Sailing Adventures if you are in the Wilmington area!

Thanks Suzanne, What a tremendous sailing adventure we had on this afternoon. Funny how the coastal breezes provide enough air circulation to dampen the heat we have all experienced this summer. With hopes of future sailing adventure, All my best, Captain Jim

We had a relaxing 2 hours on the afternoon cruise. Captain Jim did a wonderful job of pointing out wildlife as well as discussing the history of the area. Highly recommended!
