Relax aboard our 44' catamaran Bella on this evening sail. Enjoy a Caribbean-inspired cocktail while you cruise our local waterways and watch the sunset. Wind permitting, we'll turn off the engines and enjoy the beauty of sailing! There is little that can compare to a sunset sail around NC's barrier islands and marshlands at sunset.
2 hours aboard Bella is the perfect way to wind down and end your summer day. The experienced captain and crew will ensure you have an enjoyable time, serving drinks, offering local insight into the area, and snapping a few memorable family photos if you'd like.
For locals, this is a great cruise to explore your own backyard or show out-of-town guests the best of Wrightsville Beach!
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
Children 12 and under will be required to wear life jackets (provided).

Masonboro Island Reserve
Enjoy an oceanside view of Masonboro Island at sunset. We will sail through the inlet and out into the ocean if the swell is calm enough. Seeing this 8 mile stretch of uninhabited barrier island beach is always a highlight of the trip. Ask your captain and crew about the ecology of Masonboro Island Reserve if you're interested in learning!
Wrightsville Beach
Sail around the serene waterways of Wrightsville Beach. The marsh is full of wildlife and lights up beautifully at sunset. We often see dolphins, egrets, great blue herons, and a variety of seabirds.

We had a great time on this trip! Highly recommend if you are looking for a laid back and private boating experience. With a max of 6 people on the boat it felt exclusive and was a great way to get on the water, enjoy the views and sip on great drinks!
