The boat eases away from the dock as the sun begins its slow descent, the water taking the sky’s colors and throwing them back in cleaner, sharper reflections. On a private 2-hour tiki cruise out of Marathon you get a front-row seat as the Gulf and Atlantic trade light—cool breeze coaxing the last warmth from the day and gulls cutting lazy arcs above.
