Emerald Coast Sailing

Loved our sail! Thanks Captain Andy! We highly recommend this trip if you are staying near Destin. We took the morning sail so we could have a swim. Next time I think we will check out the sunset sail.

Great opportunity for a unique and customized sailing experience in Destin. If you want a huge boat with a ton of people there are plenty of different options from a pirate ship to a party boat to a typical booze cruise to various sightseeing excursions but they seem to have one thing in common — lots of people. Emerald Coast sailing is a lot more personal — you get the entire boat to yourself and can fit 2 – 6 people for a personalized excursion based on your interests and the local weather and atmosphere. It’s a sailboat so be prepared for a different experience but for those who want something a bit unique and under the radar this is a great option in Destin. It’s more expensive than the $ 25 – 30 per person you’ll pay on most boats but then again you don’t have those boats to yourself. Trust Captain Andy (and his very friendly and laid back dog Dixie) to show you an enjoyable couple hours on the water and you can find all the details online at
. This is the way to travel!

Really enjoyed our time with Cpt Andy on the Emerald Lady. We did a two hour afternoon sail. Andy did our «safety talk» as we were sailing out of the harbor… No wasted time sitting at the dock. We had a group of five adults and everyone really enjoyed themselves. Andy (and first mate Nathan) made the trip comfortable for us and were knowledgeable about the area and, obviously, sailing. We ended up seeing a large pod of dolphins and a few sharks. Great time!
