Beyond lessons, there's a solid mix of experiences on offer, from Hobie cat rentals and kayaking to sunset cruises and private charters. Captains Summer and Amy drew specific praise for their guided tours, and the crew's flexibility around weather delays left one reviewer calling it a model of customer service. One guest with mobility challenges had a rough experience feeling unwelcome, which is worth noting if accessibility is a concern for your group.
The Bella Cocktail Sail was hands down one of the highlights of our vacation! If you’re looking to have an unforgettable time, this is the experience to book. Georgia was incredibly sweet, welcoming, and attentive from start to finish. She went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having an amazing time. The atmosphere, the drinks, the views, and the overall experience exceeded our expectations. We made so many great memories and can’t recommend it enough. Thank you all for making our trip even more special we’ll definitely be back!
