What To Expect

Clearwater Beach
Meet at Clearwater Beach Municipal Marina. Mandatory check in 45 minutes prior to your scheduled departure at our ticket booth to receive your boarding pass(s). We pre board all passengers for a safety talk and then throw the lines off exactly at departure time! As we motor out of the Marina our First Mate will work on raising our sails. We then navigate Clearwater Pass between the barrier islands of Sand Key and Clearwater Beach to head offshore :) Once outside of the Clearwater Pass the Captain will shut down the engine and we will be completely under sail power. It is a unique and beautiful perspective of Clearwater Beach offshore. You may even catch a glimpse of Bottlenose Dolphins feeding or at play in the wake of our Schooner! We stay out for the sunset surprise, which is a different display every evening. As the Schooner Clearwater heads back in to the Marina, darkness is slowly upon us drenched in fantastic memories.
Cancellation Policy
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Wonderful experience, highly recommend. Boat was clean, Zack and Mark were great. Nothing beats sailing at sunset. There were only 7 other guests. Sparkling water and tubs for ice were provided. We took a shoulder sized insulated bag with drinks and dinner. There isn't room for large coolers, especially when they're at full capacity. The steps to the boat was narrow and steep as described; Zack was at the top step to help. There's a large drop from the deck to the main seating area that could give someone with mobility issues trouble (you're stepping from the deck to the seat). The seating area held 8-10; they also had cushions on the deck, but you sat flat on the deck. There was another small seating area near the wheel. We were able to move around throughout the trip and go to the bow or move seats. It was very relaxing!

Awesome experience! All the crew is very friendly and will even take amazing pictures at sunset for you! You can even bring drinks and the crew will assist by bringing in a cooler and even help pouring drinks. Captain Mark and First Mate Zach are very knowledgable about sailing. The sunset was so beautiful where the crew took us out. This is truly a perfect evening out, I am definitely going to be back soon!
