- Earl M0 contributionsOutstanding crew experience!Just completed my first sailing as a crew member with Captain Chris. Awsesome learning experience. Great boat, great crew members. Loved it!Written 8 September 2024
- LAARN10 contributionsGreat Experience, servicesExcellent experience. 4 couples for nicely onboard. Boat was beautiful. Unfortunately tide was up so boat could not fit under bridge to tour historical bay front. Instead we cruised north with views of beautiful intercostal and sea marshes. This was just as lovely. Ordered wine and charcuterie board. It was lovely and plentiful for 8 people. Sunset was beautiful Company was terrific to work with. Very responsive. I accidentally booked the wrong date and called. They happily corrected my error.Written 1 September 2024
- Joan C0 contributionsReasons to sail with St Augustine SailingSt Augustine Sailing offers the best ASA sailing instruction. Its courses, teachers and fleet are top notch. Also you can join their crew or women on water programs and get more experience on and offshore with instructors to further your skills. Finally, St Augustine Sailing sponsors its students in races to further increase our confidence and support the local sailing community. Thanks so much Roseann !!Written 4 August 2024
- mrmoney7890 contributionsWonderful Family Memory!Our family had a fantastic sunset catamaran cruise, watching other sailboats race and seeing the cityscape of St. Augustine from the water. One of my children took pictures for his Instagram, while the youngest received a mini sailing lesson from Captain Kevin. Afterward, he told me he wanted to learn to sail 'for real'! Thank you, Captain Kevin! We will be back soon!Written 1 August 2024
- Stacy S0 contributionsOkies loving lifeKevin our captain was top notch! We had a beautiful time and will definitely be doing it again if we get back to St. Augustine.Written 31 July 2024
- jamesrF5467FL0 contributionsAlways a first time even at 80!I had never been on a sailboat. It was my 80th. So relaxing and just beautiful. Sailboat was beautiful with our great Captain Kevin. Food was delicious and mimosas very good. I recommend everyone try this outing. You won’t be sorry.Written 22 July 2024
- 768amirw0 contributionsRomantic 1 hour sunset cruiseVery romantic cruise. I loved the fact that they offered a sunset cruise (7:15-8:30). While only 1 hour, it was perfect for a couple. It comes with a bottle of champagne and several chocolate covered strawberries.Written 15 July 2024
- JGWags0 contributions2024 4th of July "Fireworks" sail.We did the 4th of July "Fireworks" evening sail. Captain Nery and first mate Mark were excellent hosts. A beautiful evening sail with a wonderful sunset and spectacular fireworks. Easy booking process. Safe and calm waters. We brought our own charcuterie desert board with special deserts from Creme de la Cocoa plus drinks. It was a memorable evening.Written 8 July 2024
- Inspiration7210310 contributionsA wonderful evening!I cannot say enough good things about St Augustine Sailing! Our sunset sail was fantastic. Our family loved every minute. Captain Chris was the best and we saw dolphins and even a manatee. The staff were all so kind and helpful. We highly recommend. A wonderful evening.Written 1 July 2024
- Michael T0 contributionsGreat relaxing once in a lifetime experienceWe did the learn the ropes. The parking was an issue (not their fault) so just get there a bit earlier just in case there are fishing tournaments going on. We couldn’t find parking so parked next to the entrance and ran inside to ask them. Everyone was very nice, they told us where to park and waited. Our captain was very knowledgeable and was super patient and nice. We went out and even though there was no wind we were still going to pull the sails but we felt a bit intimidated with the amount of boats out and instead asked if we could cruise more and get the hang of the boat. Captain was super nice about it, we sailed the boat, learned how to control it and cruised while he not only gave us some history but taught us nautical stuff. It was a beautiful day and an experience. It’s not everyday we get to sail a million dollar boat…lol We would highly recommend as a special treat at least on a special occasion and for us it was our anniversary. A must do!Written 11 June 2024
- D5551YOkathleenr0 contributionsPerfect sail!The office was very responsive and great in getting everything set up for us, including food. Captain Chris was absolutely wonderful. We had a 3, 4 and 5 year old boys in addition to a 10 month old with 6 adults. It was a perfect setup for us. The charcuterie board (for 4) and sandwich board (for 6) had a very nice variety and was nut free to accommodate one of the boys allergies - something for everyone and there was very little left. And, while the clouds were out in full force at the very last minute before pulling back in, we got to see the sunset. Couldn't have been a more perfect evening. Thank you so much!!Written 10 June 2024
- maravuer0 contributions10/10 experience!Booked evening sail for a birthday party and it was an amazing experience! Staff and captain were very welcoming and would definitely book again! 10/10!Written 10 June 2024

I chartered Wind Dancer today. It was a wonderful experience. Our sparkling water was chilled and ready when we arrived, and the captain was fantastic. The boat was beautiful, clean and well maintained. Our departure and return was right on time. Thank you.

We appreciate a good excursion when we go on vacation and this hit the mark! We had Chris as our guide and he was very knowledgeable about the boat we were on, sailing, and the area. We couldn't have asked for better weather and a more delightful adventure.

Our captain, Captain Finn, was very knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. Captain Finn explained all the pertinent details of the boat, especially the emergency points and procedures. The boat was immaculate, like it had just been christened. We truly enjoyed our time with Captain Fiinn and appreciated his willingness to customize the cruise for us. We purchased the charcuterie board and a bottle of wine to go along with our cruise. If Roseanne ever gives up organizing charters, she can go into catering! It was beautifully displayed and delicious! This was a great experience and we highly recommend it!

Hi we are looking to do something like this for a friends bachelorette trip. I was wondering if we would be allowed to bring drink or if they are prohibited.
Thanks,
