Ever tried a sailing trip on a two-hull sailboat? The twin hulls offer extra stability, making for a smooth, laid-back ride. Enjoy a two-hour cruise in Orange Beach aboard the Cetacean, a 52-foot Hawaiian catamaran. With the wind behind us, the Cetacean glides across the back bays of Orange Beach.
Out on the water, you’ll see wildlife in their natural setting—schools of fish swimming by, playful dolphins popping up to say hello, and seabirds diving for a meal. Bald eagles, egrets, herons, osprey, and seagulls are often spotted soaring overhead. This peaceful Alabama cruise is ideal for couples, families, and groups of friends.
We stick to the calm back bays of the Intracoastal Waterway for the smoothest sailing experience.

Had a great time on the cruise. There are tables to sit at and the staff was so friendly! Found a pod of dolphins and spent quite a bit of time watching them. Really enjoyed our trip!

We had a great trip with Captain John and his crew. The weather was a little overcast and slight drizzle by the time we got back, but were still able to see some dolphins and learned a lot about them from the wonderful crew. Highly recommend them.

Crew was very friendly and accommodating. It was a beautiful day on Wolf Bay. Took awhile to see dolphins, but when we did…what a show! Would definitely recommend this trip if looking for a short afternoon cruise.

We had a great trip! The boat was clean, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the captain was funny and informative! It was a very smooth and peaceful sail! We saw dolphins and a number of birds that the captain described to us. We would take the trip again!
