About
Ready for an unforgettable memory? Our sunsets are world-famous and there’s no better way to see this breathtaking cosmic display than from the most iconic boat in the Tampa Bay region, Suncoast Horizon. We sail the smooth, calm waters of Boca Ciega Bay through John's Pass and on to the Gulf of Mexico. These trips evolved from our love of the ocean, the sky, and the marine life we share this world with.
You’ll set sail about an hour before sunset to give you plenty of time to catch the full range of hues painted on Mother Nature's canvas. If you love clean air, smooth sailing, postcard beautiful sunsets, and starry night skies then this romantic sailing trip is for you. Complimentary bottled water available. BYOB allowed. Cooler with ice available and restroom aboard.
Departure times can vary to ensure you have the most beautiful sunset view.
