##About When most boats go out to watch the sunset over the islands, we cruise to the bayside (sunset side) of the Islands and watch the sunset over the open water! You can hear the sun sizzle and look for the green flash as it goes out for the night.
Start times change weekly with the sunset, we will start approximately 2.5 hours before sunset. We will call you to confirm your start time.
##More Info Our boat is a custom-built catamaran deck boat made extra wide and all one level once on board. The boat is completely shaded, with an enclosed bathroom (a rare commodity!). We cater to the Physically Challenged and can easily accommodate wheelchairs.

Bring a camera with a zoom lens
Capture the vibrant colors and potential wildlife like seabirds or dolphins from the deck.
