What To Expect

Chesapeake Bay

Your two and a half hour cruise, aboard the 42' sailing yacht Eternal Hope, sails out into the Chesapeake Bay, where you will see the historic Cliffs of Calvert and if you are lucky you will see dolphins, ospreys and other amazing habitats or cruise ships in the shipping channel. If there is a strong breeze out of the west, we may sail close to the other side of the bay! It has been said "...that the only problem with the bay is that it is so darn beautiful!"

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

The crew was really friendly and knowledgeable! We learned all about the history of Chesapeake Beach! We got to see a few different animals like sting rays, fish, nettles, and osprey. We had a great day!

Wonderful experience for our family! Captain Andy and First Mate Shawn were personable, professional, and informative throughout the journey. My 11 year old son was able to steer and learn following a heading and we had some wonderful moments topside sailing around the bay. We even saw a pod of dolphins and perhaps a sailfish? Just the relaxing cruise we were seeking.

Thank you 248kirks for your review. We enjoyed having you and your family aboard. We are extremely excited that you were able to witness one of the beauties of Mother Nature on your "Mother Nature Sailing cruise", the sighing of dolphins in the Chesapeake Bay! Once again thank you for your review. We look forward to seeing you again on the Bay.

We all had a great time on the boat. It was very relaxing and a nice way to spend some time on the water. Nate was very welcoming and knowledgeable of the local history. Captain Andy was also wonderful and made sure that my two young boys had a good time as well. They really enjoyed getting to steer the ship. I would recommend for anyone visiting the area, and good for families too.
