It was a beautiful experience traveling on a boat and watching the sunset. The crew was incredibly kind and made the experience so memorable. We had a beautiful sunset and got to see dolphins. The complimentary champagne toast was a nice plus. I will be recommending to everyone who travels to Clearwater

Itinerary

There are few things more enjoyable than a leisurely sunset cruise. Whether it’s a romantic evening out, a celebration with friends and family, or a relaxing time for reflection, the sunsets off Florida’s western coast are famous for providing some of the best views in the world.

This catamaran leaves from Clearwater Bay and heads into the Gulf of Mexico. Listen and learn as the captain shares interesting facts about the Gulf Coast region.

Admire the sunset sky, which can oftentimes look like a painting with its brilliant streaks of color. Watch closely as dusk arrives and the sun begins to fade and gently lower into the horizon. The boat is perfectly positioned, so bring a camera to capture this incredible view. Be sure to watch for the green flash, an optical phenomenon that sometimes occurs right after sunset. When the conditions are right, a green spot is visible just above the upper rim of the sun.

A Champagne toast is included on this sunset cruise. Beer, wine, and soft drinks can be purchased on board. Return to port after almost two hours on the water.

Great way to get on the...

Julie_D, May 2026
Great way to get on the water for a fair price! Announcer was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable of Clearwater. Gorgeous views of the sunset.

Parking nightmare

Dee_P, May 2026
Horrible experience. Parking lot is a disaster, caused me to miss my boat entirely. No help, no refund, just terrible customer service. Do not trust them with your vacation.

Sunset Views

Thomas_B, May 2026
Nice trip around St. Pete Beach area, plenty of pretty views and a few pods of dolphins going by the boat. View of sunset not much different then on the beach, but a worthwhile experience nonetheless.

Great sunset tour, several dolphin sightings

Al_F, May 2026
Tour departs just a stones throw from Saltwater Crackers restaurant, be sure to check in at the tour desk before heading over to the boat itself. Super friendly staff, and a great sunset tour bargain as well.. 5 stars 😍

Enjoyed beautiful views of Clearwater & the amazing sunset. The captain was very informative & talked about the different landscapes we passed by. Also had the pleasure of watching dolphins swim right alongside of our boat. Be sure to sit on the top deck to enjoy the full skyline views!

Celeste_G, Mar 2026
Nice thing to do with family at a reasonable cost. Staff was friendly, boat was clean. Sunset was gorgeous!

Cruise was wonderful!!! Reservation system was terrible!

Terri_K, Mar 2026
The cruise itself was excellent! Captain Jay and his crew were awesome. Viator on the other hand was not a positive experience. When we got to check in our reservation was not registered with the tour company. We were lucky to get on the cruise we had purchased tickets for. Buyer beware, I received multiple notifications from Viator that all lead me to believe we were all set.
