Sunset cruises are among the most popular activities in the Florida Keys, allowing visitors to enjoy the fabulous colors and calmness of the sunset from the water. Viewing the evening from the waters surrounding the Florida Keys is a unique and charming experience, with an astounding array of pink, purple, and orange hues tinting the sky and reflecting off the tranquil waters of the Florida Bay and Gulf of Mexico.

“…a unique and charming experience…”

There are several things to consider before planning a sunset cruise, such as whether you would prefer to rent a boat or hire a licensed Captain. If you’re unfamiliar with the area, having a captain doubling as a guide with their local knowledge can be extremely helpful. In addition, you’ll be able to more thoroughly enjoy your time relaxing on a gentle cruise without worrying about where to go, what to bring, any prerequisites, etc.

There are many options when selecting a charter for a sunset cruise. Typically, these charters last about two hours and take place aboard a sailboat or catamaran, some offering additional amenities, such as drinks and dinner.
