The sunset cruise we took was amazing. Captain Mike and his crew did a great job. The Privateer was the catamaran we took. As we headed out of the marina we went to see some dolphins. There were quite a few and they hung out with us for awhile before Captain Mike decided it was time to move on and get to a point where we could drop the sails. I personally loved the feeling of the ship under sail but the Gulf was a little choppy that day and those without sea legs may want to think twice about having alcohol before or during the cruise. We had live music the day we went-sorry forgot the guy's name-but he was great. Mike and the entire crew went out of their way to make sure everyone had a great time. Thanks for everything and fair winds Cap.

The catamaran tour did not disappoint. The only disappointment was when it ended. I highly recommend. We went as a family with our daughter and grandson and had a blast. It would also be fun to do if you're in party mode with your friends. Great music, vibes, drinks and a fun crew Captain Mike and first Mate Jaya were amazing. Will definitely be doing this again next year.

My husband treated me to a catamaran sailing excursion for our 15 year anniversary. Due to the catamaran having been rented out for a private function the day of our anniversary we had to enjoy it a day early. The crew was great. Mike, Chelsea and Jess did a great job point things out, informing us of facts with the marine life we were seeing and creating our refreshments to enjoy. Thank you for the beautiful experience.

We had a wonderful excursion on the Footloose catamaran. We saw over one hundred dolphins. The captain and mate were very informative and genuinely friendly. Some of the dolphins were not afraid to come up to the catamaran. A friend of Paradise Adventures in a fast fishing boat did some fast wide circles around our catamaran creating a large wake for the dolphins to surf/wake ride in, it was fantastic to see the dolphins surfing and jumping in the wake of that boat.

We enjoyed our excursion on the Paradise Adventures Catamaran. It was very convenient being next to our resort. The check-in lady was very friendly and helpful. We went sailing, saw playful dolphins, snorkeling, paddlle boating, and swam on the inflatable water park at Shell Island. They offered us 1 free beverages and relaxing music. The all female crew was amazing! They even let our grandson drive the boat. What a fun day! Enjoyed every moment!

I recently took the Paradise Adventures Catamaran Sunset Tour, and it was absolutely breathtaking! From the moment we set sail, the crew made us feel welcome and ensured we had everything we needed for a fantastic experience. The views during the sunset were nothing short of magical! Watching the sun dip below the horizon while sipping on a refreshing drink was the perfect way to unwind. The catamaran was spacious and comfortable, allowing everyone to enjoy the scenery without feeling crowded. The crew shared interesting stories about the area and even played some great music that added to the vibe. If you’re looking for a memorable evening on the water, I highly recommend this tour! It’s a must-do if you’re in the area! 🌅🚤✨

Thanks Mike, Nico, and Jess for my awesome first experience on a catamaran. I appreciate your attentiveness and great sense of humor as we sailed across the bay. Your play list was on point and catching the sights of the dolphins were beautiful. And the sunset was amazing❤️! I am soooo looking forward to doing this again next year🤩👌🏾.

We had a blast aboard the Footloose catamaran sunset tour. Captain Marci and Jamie were fantastic, friendly, and knowledgeable. We saw so many dolphins, enjoyed calm waters, and a gorgeous sunset view. Jamie told us how the cargo ship would likely attract jumping dolphins and sure enough they put on quite the show. To top it off, that rum punch hits hard 😂 Thanks for the great time!

The sunset sail on the privateer catamaran was awesome. We had the honor to have an all woman crew and they did a fantastic job. We did see plenty of dolphins and a beautiful sunset which was expected. What impressed me the most was how our sail and the competitors boats all worked together to make waves for the dolphins. Our captain did a great job getting us in there to see the dolphins jumping. She could put the boat anywhere she wanted. You could tell she was very experienced at being a captain and loved what she does. The deckhands also did a wonderful job helping the captain and making sure the guests were taken care of. A big thank you to all three of you for a fantastic job

Captain and first mate were excellent and the adventure was a perfect experience for my family. My eight year old enjoyed riding in the front of the catamaran and finding shells and fish while snorkeling. We also had a great encounter with a pod of dolphins. For adults, the beverages were also quite nice.
