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, Alabama and Perdido Key, Florida.
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 Orange Beach/ Gulf Shores sunset sail!
We also have a full-service cocktail bar available for purchase on board!

Great choice! The other boats looked overcrowded. Would choose the sailboat again when I return. Tables and chairs were much appreciated. Basic snacks and drinks but a gorgeous view. Seeing dolphins was so cool!

My wife and I were celebrating our 23rd anniversary. The sunset cruise was a highlight of our weekend. The crew were exemplary and we felt very welcomed. Their experience made us feel safe as well. It was a delightful cruise and we enjoyed walking around on the catamaran and seeing all the wonderful sights of the Gulf of America.

Captain and Crew was very knowledgeable about the boat, weather, detailed instructions about safety. Spotted lots of dolphins. The sunset was a bit blocked by the sun, but the dolphins made up for it! Highly recommend this boat. The drinks were top notch.
