We decided to rent our first private catamaran while in Destin, FL. It was our favorite part of the trip! Kip our Captain and Elizabeth with Destin Sailing Adventures were AWESOME! We had so much fun and it was so relaxing! Capt. Kip made sure we saw the dolphins up close and he was so easy-going! I would highly recommend renting from Destin Sailing Adventures! Absolutely will do this again!!!

Can’t beat sailing out to Crab Island on a private catamaran! We saw other snorkeling excursion boats packed with people while we got to stretch out on beanbags at the front of the boat. It was so fun and relaxing! We stopped to snorkel and then they stopped for us again so we could watch a dolphin! Captain Kip and Elizabeth were awesome…they changed our sail time to ensure we had good/safe weather, had great communication, and even took pictures and video for us. Highly recommend!!

We did not actually get to take tour due to weather. But Elizabeth was great to deal with on reschedules and sad to say cancelation.
But we will try again when we are back in this area.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! While we were so incredibly disappointed that the unpredictable local weather kept us at the dock, your safety is always our absolute top priority.
Elizabeth always does her best to make the scheduling and cancellation process as seamless and stress-free as possible for our guests, so she will be thrilled to hear your kind words.
We would absolutely love to finally get you out on the water the next time you are back in the area. Safe travels until then, and we look forward to welcoming you aboard for a proper sailing adventure next time!

The captain, Kip, was knowledgeable and vigilant about the weather situation while also remaining very calm. We had a storm system pass over about halfway into the trip which brought rain, so we didn't cruise around as much, but we were able to settle in a few spots for snorkeling, relaxing, and waiting out the storm before being able to head back.
Response from Host, Jul 2024
I am grateful the Captain took good care of you during the passing storm system. I am pleased to hear that in spite of the weather you were able to relax and snorkel a bit too! Thank you for taking a moment to leave us a review and we hope to have you out again!

It was a first time experience with the family . We enjoyed our 3 hours at the catamaran. Water was so cold but we still got in it. Our capitán was very kind. We would do it again .
Response from Host, Apr 2022
I enjoyed the sail with your beautiful family. I'd love to take you out again when the water is warmer. Take care until then.
