Echo 2 provides flexible private charters for groups up to 19 guests and is commonly used for sunset sails, private parties, and intimate reef excursions. Trip offerings include shallow-water snorkeling, reef snorkeling, wild dolphin encounters, sandbar parties, and adults-only Champagne sunset cruises departing from central Key West marinas, including scheduled departures from the Perry Hotel & Marina.
Guests receive professional sailing service, attentive crew guidance, light bites, and beverage service; select sails feature Moët or Chandon champagne options and gourmet snacks. Catamaran Echo focuses on customizable itineraries for celebrations, corporate outings, and private gatherings. Private party sails, holiday sailing parties, and half-day adventures are available with options to charter Echo 2 or Echo 3 exclusively. Reservations are recommended for private charters and specialty sunset sails to secure preferred dates and vessel choice.
Bookings are made online or by phone, with customizable itineraries, vessel selection, and food-and-beverage options; capacities differ by trip, and the crew offers local navigation and reef knowledge to enhance snorkeling and wildlife-viewing experiences.
