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.

The captain was so nice and knowledgeable. He and Zach the mate were very down to earth and went out of their way to answer questions and ensure we had a great time. They didn’t guarantee we’d see dolphins but when I spotted some in the distance, we sailed after them and got to watch them play in the sunset. This is a MUST DO. Worth every penny and I would have paid more. They aren’t in it for the money they just love to sail and it shows.

My wife and I joined Captain Mark and Mate Zack over the weekend. Very relaxing sail off Clearwater. The sunset was beautiful and the Captain and Mate are excellent. They provide sparkling water to drink and are happy to answer any and all questions. Having never been on a sailboat before it was interesting to learn a little bit about how to trim the sails. I highly recommend this cruise. We even saw a pod of dolphins swimming by the boat.
