Description
This tour is an intimate experience, our groups are 3-5 people per boat maximum. We have two boats. We have been sailing the Biscayne Bay for over 15 years, just for the fun of it. We started this eco-tour in 2018 to share the amazing experience of wind travel with others. Or as we like to say, share the magic. You will meet the founders/guides David or JP, we are originally from Argentina and Venezuela and have been living in Miami for more than 20 years. We share a passion for protecting Biscayne Bay and its wildlife, as well as creating beautiful memories for our guests. Our float of Hobie Catamarans were designed with surfing in mind, you'll glide over the water and be in contact with your surroundings. Thanks to their convenient maneuverability and size, they'll allow you to experience every corner of Biscayne Bay like no other boat can. These boats are extremely safe and comfortable for people of all ages.

Primarily to show appreciation to Captain David
Great experience overall! We went with Captain David who was amazing; great conversation, very knowledgeable and plenty stories to tell, he brought snacks for us as well. a bit pricey however if it’s something you’re interested in I definitely recommend.

GREAT!
We had an amaizing time with our captain, we felt secure the whole time. It includes snacks and some beverages, also we had time to rest at the sand bar. This is a very different way to explore the bay. Totally recommend. The only thing is that at first we had to go through smelly sea weed to reach the boat, but thats not captains fault.

Great Sailing
Captain Israel was amazing! He is extremely knowledgeable of the area providing details of the history of the different buildings along the water. We had such a great time and would absolutely sail with him again.

Must-do adventure while in Miami!!
Amazing and fun experience sailing across the Biscayne Bay. Our tour guide and captain David was very knowledgeable and friendly. We chatted about Miami and Argentine football. The view was simply spectacular. We saw a bunch of fun creatures when snorkeling at the sandbar. Definitely one of the highlights of our Miami trip.

Miscommunication on location site pickup
This event did not happen for us due to communication of pickup location. The information provided in email was not correct and multiple phone conversations between 2 different people cause a lot of confusion. We finally left and asked for refund which we received right away and the owner was very apologetic for the inconvenience. May try this again next time we are the area.
Operator response
I'm so sorry for the miscommunication. You guys arrived 1 hour early and I sent you to Coconut Grove Sailing Club to wait. Captain Israel looked for you guys 3 times at the paddle boards and could not find you. I personally showed up about 15 minutes after 3 pm to take you out, but you decided to leave, you missed out on an amazing outing. Wished you would have joined us !

Highlight of our trip!
We had a perfect day on the water with Captain Israel! He was very patient with us as first time sailers. It was a fun way to be right on the water for the day. Highly recommend.
