I have done the Starlight dinner boat and also the Calypso Queen that had a very nice and yummy lunch buffet. The views on the water are breathtaking and also you see the dolphins too. More

This cruise was recommended to us by a local and it was very nice. We opted for the Chris Craft (37ft) vs. the sailboat. This is an older boat undergoing maintenance but that did not deter from our day. Captain Brian was very knowledgeable and pleasant to chat with. We were the only two on the boat that day and...

I never saw so many dolphins and they were so close to the boat (4ft). Capt. Joe was great! A nice man, he sent us everywhere we wanted and he show us more then we expected. The boat was old but super comfy and big 37 ft. so many chairs in front and back with tables. Also one cool thing... More

This was definitely the best part of our vacation. I have always wanted to go sailing, and when we were in Clearwater last week, my husband and I got the chance. Being on this majestic sailboat was so relaxing, and the captain made sure we were comfortable and relaxed. We also saw a pair of dolphins on the way back... More

We booked a sunset cruise through the Sand Pearl Resort. We weren't sure if our grandsons ages 9 and 11 would like it, but Capt. Chris let them, along with my husband and son-in-law ,get real involved and they loved it. The night was beautiful and the sunset was magnificent. Every trip we take we try to do one special... More

My husband and I took the sunset cruise with Captain Chris. Very knowledgeable and friendly; gave us a wonderful trip with an amazing sunset! The trip only allows adults with a max of 6 people. We were the only 2 that night and they still had the trip! Nice ship; relaxed atmosphere; well worth the money! Bring your own snacks... More

Exciting and relaxing! Everybody on shore had to be looking at our sailboat wishing they were us and out there. Chris, our captain let us do as much as we wanted sailing on the Tradewinds, including shifting sails etc. He was full of information that we loved since this was our 1st time sailing. If you want to experience being... More

Just finished a Sunset Cruise on the Tradewinds with Capt. Chris. My wife and I found this to be the highlight of our visit to Clearwater Beach. While it was certainly helped along by the perfect gorgeous weather and enough breeze to keep the boat sailing at a leisurely pace, the overall cruise was great as well. Chris was very... More

We went out on the Tradewinds on a 4 pm sail (they also go out earlier) - perfect for seeing the sunset, and despite being only 3 of us they went out anyway - so was like having our own private sailing vessel! "Capt." Brian was very welcoming and let us participate as much as we wanted to steer, raise... More
