Sail Away on Our Alabama Sunset Cruise in the back bays of the Intracoastal Waterway!
End another perfect day in Orange Beach, AL with a sunset cruise! Our two-hulled sailboat offers a smooth, stable ride as we sail off into a gorgeous golden sunset. This two-hour sail is aboard the Cetacean, a 52-foot Hawaiian catamaran, and we skim along the back bays of Orange Beach.
Besides watching the stunning sunset, keep a lookout for marine life and coastal wildlife. We often see bald eagles, seagulls, herons, and osprey flying near the boat, schools of fish swimming underneath the boat, and a sighting of some of the dolphins in our resident pod. You cannot forget to bring a camera for this sunset sail!
We also have a full-service cocktail bar available for purchase on board!

Great cruise. Loved the boat and crew. The sails were such a unique touch. Saw dolphins, sea eagles and a beautiful sunset. Highly recommend.

Fairly positive. We got to see plenty of dolphins, maybe so many that some on the boat lost interest. The staff was helpful, the drinks etc. VERY reasonably priced. We could have done with less of the music and a bit quieter as it got pretty annoying before the tour was done.

This was an amazing time. We were giving an upgrade to on to the sail boat which was our first experience on a sailboat. Captain Ryan and the crew were so great. They made us feel like family. The music was fun the dolphins were wonderful to watch. I would definitely recommend this cruise!!

We enjoyed our time on the boat! It was relaxing, fun music, appreciated how the place the families with kiddos in one section and the adults in another, sunset views were beautiful, saw a few dolphins, crew was very attentive with drinks/blankets…definitely recommend! We had the honor of meeting the owner as well on the boat that evening. He sincerely wants it to be a great experience for everyone!
