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!

3.00The captain and staff were awesome and created a fun environment for guests. Sadly we had cloudy and windy weather. And other than seeing a few dolphin, we really did not see much wildlife. You're out on a big bay area, but there is not much see. Not very scenic
Fantastic cruise

5.00Great cruise. Loved the boat and crew. The sails were such a unique touch. Saw dolphins, sea eagles and a beautiful sunset. Highly recommend.
Worth it, from what I could tell.

4.00Fairly 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.

5.00This 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!!

3.00The sailing and the sailboat were amazing. Unfortunately we saw dolphins mating and one of the crew went on and on about how the males were cornering the female and pointing out the male's penis. It became very awkward and uncomfortable. It was insensitive to anyone who is an assault victim and inappropriate for a family activity. My adult daughter brought it up to me later that night and we both felt the same way about it. Without that, we would have had a great time.
Sit with strangers! Make...
