We’ll sail along the shores of Fort Myers Beach and/or the lighthouse area of Sanibel Island. This tour is private for up to 6 guests. This tour sails the same waters as our other tours, but gives you much more time sailing.

August & September “Beat the Heat’ 2.5 hrs – Private $400

This private 2.5 hr sail departing at 9:30am will be the perfect off-season option for your sailing needs.

Are you a couple or small group (less than 6) wanting a PRIVATE Quarter Day/Sunset sail without others aboard? Want a sailing lesson? Want to talk loud and be annoying without offending others aboard? Good News! Book 5 of the available 6 seats and we will automatically block the 6th seat. Your group will have the entire boat to yourselves…except the Capt and Mate of course! It’s a small price to pay for your own private adventure aboard a beautiful sailboat.

How to dress and what to bring:

No matter what we believe in our perfect world, WEATHER HAPPENS. I watch the weather all the time and I pretty much know what the next day will bring, but if you are visiting the area there are some general rules:

-Bare feet only. Boat shoes allowed during cooler weather only and by notice from Captain the day of. Shoes will be collected at boat.

-Small cooler. Soft sided preferred. Coffin sized coolers will be left at the dock.

-Bathing suit. Great time to get a tan

-Hat, sun screen & lip balm for extra sun protection (No Bronzers/Tanners-stains boat)

-Camera & binoculars, there’s a lot of wildlife in our neck of the sea along with crazy boaters.

-Layer up, it can get cool in the evening when the sun sets and the wind is in our sails.

-An open mind and a Spirit of adventure.

All tours depart and return to Salty Sam’s Marina. Each tour includes approximately 15 minutes of motoring in/out of the harbor past the shrimp fleet, restaurants/bars, and beautiful homes. Your Captain will make all weather judgements day of the sail. We only cancel if winds are sustained above 25 knots, rain is anticipated, or sea conditions make for an uncomfortable ride. We don’t guarantee wildlife, wind, perfect sunny weather, or your general happiness. We promise a sailboat adventure. If winds are very light, we’ll turn the motor on and keep you moving in search of wind.
