St Augustine Sailing delivers exactly what you'd hope for in a maritime experience, with Dr. Dale and Captain Daniel earning particular praise for their expertise and warmth. Dr. Dale stands out as both a scientist and skilled instructor who runs everything from casual dolphin-watching tours to serious ASA certification courses. Reviewers consistently mention his teaching ability, patience (even calming someone through a panic attack during a maneuver), and deep knowledge of sailing mechanics. The Learn The Ropes courses seem especially popular, with multiple people mentioning how much they learned and feeling genuinely hooked on sailing afterward. Beyond the educational offerings, this outfit clearly knows how to create memorable outings. One couple raved about a wine and appetizer sail that included personalized touches like off-menu steaks, while families appreciated captains who let kids help raise sails and take the wheel. The boats themselves get compliments for their condition, and practical details like shade covers matter when you're out on Florida water. Wildlife sightings of dolphins and manatees add natural magic to the trips. Whether you want a romantic sunset cruise, a family adventure, or actual sailing instruction, the crew adapts well to different groups and consistently makes people feel welcomed rather than processed through a tourist experience.
Where to begin?! So many great things to say about this experience, the company and the captain! Truly from beginning to end I was impressed with the warmth and professionalism of the team at St. Augustine Sailing. I visit St. Augustine once a year for a spa + boating getaway and when I came across SAS I was thrilled to find they offered a sailing option with brunch in addition to so many other wonderful options. I called to ask a couple questions and the customer service etiquette and the friendly smiles of the staff, Lauren & Dirk, on to the day of my outing were excellent. Owner, Roseanne, was also delightfully to speak with and has done an amazing job with leading her team and attention to details. I had Kevin as my Captain and when I say he took the day trip to the next level of expertise, comfort and enjoyment for my time out on the water - he did not disappoint. He was kind, friendly, engaging and super knowledgeable. He was informative of the area as we sailed and gave good local recommendations for the rest of my stay. Hands down SAS is the areas BEST yacht and sail boating company offering a more private and exclusive experience away from the hustle and bustle of the overcrowded tourist boats. The added luxury of their gorgeous fleet is well worth the cost which was also very affordable for the over the top experience they offer. I love to travel and am always looking for a personalized experience and this was it! I’ll be back and I’m bringing friends. I’ve found my go to when visiting St, Augustine!
