This is usually from 10am until 4pm with great sailing, beautiful Rose Island beaching and fantastic snorkeling, snacks, drinks and a delicious freshly grilled BBQ lunch – this is a great day out! If needed this cruise can be condensed into 5 hours.
Itinerary – The cruise stops for snorkeling and/or beaching for about 2 1/2- 3 hours, and there are about 2 1/2 – 3 hours of actual sailing time. The beach is gorgeous, and is at a secluded location, at nearby Rose Island. With this cruise the snorkeling is at a fantastic reef in a shallow reef location. You can snorkel from the sailboat, in 10-12′ of water, or you can snorkel from the beach, so this is good for both experienced and beginner snorkelers. We bring a tender/small boat along as well, so you can also actually ride to the beach and not get wet at all, which is nice if you’d like to bring a towel or camera ashore, or if you can’t swim.
Snorkeling – We have lots of great snorkel gear on board which is included. There is also instruction in snorkeling, or refresher pointers, given by the crew upon request. There are swim waist belts (required) on board, and also life jackets are available (upon request).
Snacks, lunch – we include coffee with danish, cakes & pastries in the morning, and fruit & chocolate platters in the afternoon. Our lunch is not catered – it is freshly prepared on board and grilled over charcoal with generous servings of our “secret recipe” BBQ Chicken & Ribs, Bahamian Baked Beans, Captain Randy’s Famous Cole Slaw, and fresh dinner rolls from our local bakery, baked that same morning.
Drinks – You are not allowed to bring your own drinks. There are complimentary drinks – unlimited Rum Punch during the sail home, as well as unlimited fruit punch, iced tea, lemonade & bottled water during the entire cruise. In addition to the drinks which are complimentary (as described above) aboard our various cruises, we do have a very affordably priced cash bar. Sodas and juices are $2 and everything else (beers, standard cocktails, wine, Rum Punch) is usually $5-$8. With a private charter, if you have any special requests from the bar, let us know and we will provision accordingly.
