Thank you so much for your nice review. The Egmont Key Expedition is my personal favorite sailing trip we offer! I only wish I could do them more often myself. I will pass your review along to Captain Casey. Tracey More

I have twice been on this sail out of Twin Dolphin Marina in Bradenton. First time was the afternoon sail 3-5 pm. Now I have taken the sunset sail. Both times thoroughly enjoyable but would have to favor personally the sunset sail. Just a lovely, relaxing trip on a beautiful boat with friendly crew and passengers. It's a special treat... More

While we opt'ed for the 2 hour cruise, I would strongly recommend the longer option ... You are in the bay, so no rough seas to worry about. Ask about coupons for eating at Pier 22.

A friend and I went and had the boat to ourselves as we could not find a couple more people to go. It ended up being an excellent private charter. The wind was perfect that day. We asked to stay out 30 minutes minutes longer and offered to pay extra to stay out longer. The captain was more than willing... More

Went last Friday on the 6 hr Edmond Key trip out of Bradenton. Awesome trip, with great weather, and good information from Casey and Captain Tom. Had such a great time we will probably go again next year! Highlight of our girls trip!

The evening cruise was my birthday gift from my husband and he couldn't have thought of a better one! Great sailing and great company, with Captain Tracey at the helm. Would do it again in a heartbeat!

I highly recommend the Kathleen D/Idylwild catamaran sails... My family and I, literally ages 8 to 80, all enjoyed a wonderful afternoon dolphin cruise on the Idylwild last week. The boat is the perfect size...makes you feel like it's your own boat! The captains, Jeff and Casey were great and made us feel right at home. Nothing beats cruising around... More

Kathleen answered our call, and she was so wonderful and answered all our questions. When we arrived at the Seafood Shack off Cortez, our departure point, we found immediate parking. We walked out...
