Itinerary
We start our tour at the north end of Fort Myers Beach and start our trip down the intracoastal where you will see the more populated areas of the island passing other boaters and waterfront restaurants. The further south we go the more nature we will see as we cruise down along the mangroves to the southern end of the island. We will turn around at Big Carlos Pass which is a popular spot for dolphins to hunt for fish coming through before we head back. We will end the trip by cruising out into San Carlos Bay at the north end of the island and watching a beautiful sunset.
We will travel through Matanzas harbor where you will see downtown Fort Myers Beach and all the waterfront restaurants. Once we reach Matanzas preserve you will see mangrove trees on your left for the remainder of the cruise down and we will be more likely to see wildlife.

Captain Kate was fantastic! Our family had an amazing time on the water. She’s incredibly knowledgeable about the area and has a genuine respect for the local wildlife, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The whole trip had a relaxed, laid-back vibe. She even had music ready and let us choose what we wanted to listen to. We never felt rushed or interrupted—she gave us space to enjoy our time and was there whenever we had questions. I would absolutely recommend Captain Kate to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable experience!
Our family of six, including two teenage girls and two grandparents, very much enjoyed the private cruise where we spotted at least 8 dolphins and saw an incredible sunset. Captain Kate was very knowledgeable about the area and did a great job navigating the waters.
Great sunset cruise with observant captain! We spotted dolphins and she took time to idle and allow us to enjoy and get lots of pictures. Sunset was beautiful and captain also took pictures of our group.
Very relaxing and comfortable cruise with incredible scenery and many dolphin sightings! Kate was a master tour guide!
Captain Kate was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond expectations. Would definitely plan a trip with her again. 10/10 would recommend to everyone!
Pet friendly. So laid back and relaxing. Kate was awesome. Unless you really want your money going to commercial, superficial charters, this is the place. We were so glad we picked this place. This small business cares about their workplace, and we care about those people. Give Kate a call and you won’t be disappoIntend. Thx Kate
This was a fantastic trip for four friends. Captain Joe was great, very knowledgeable and informative. Two hours of cruising. Lovely to spot the dolphins too. Would highly recommended booking this trip.
This sunset sail was absolutely perfect. Getting to experience it just as our own private party made it feel so special and relaxed, and being able to play our own music really added to the atmosphere. We saw so much wildlife along the way, and the sunset itself was truly breathtaking—one of those moments you just want to freeze in time. Captain Kate was incredible. She’s so fun, easy to talk to, and genuinely made the experience feel personal rather than scripted. Hearing her story and being able to support her after Hurricane Ian made the sail even more meaningful. You can tell how much she loves what she does, and that energy carries through the entire trip. If you’re considering a sunset sail and want something that feels intimate, thoughtful, and truly special, this is absolutely the one to book. This was such a memorable experience to share with my dad, and we couldn’t have asked for a better evening on the water. Highly, highly recommend.
Captain Kate was informative and terrific. We'll worth the cost. Beautiful scenery and we look forward to doing it again!
Outstanding! Definitely recommend. Captain Kate provided a lovely boat trip and we chatted about all kinds of things. She’s a wonderful hostess and guide. We liked that one price pays for up to 6 people. For us, it was just the two of us. So relaxing and personal than the boats with 30-40 people on them.
