After an hour on the beach, it is time to hoist the sail and start heading North along the coast. Time to turn up the music and start taking advantage of the open bar! Everyone will be jamming to the music until returning to the point of origin. You'll surely leave wanting more and waiting to do it all over again. Note that the beaches chosen for designated stops will be dependent upon sea conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Sail and Snorkel at Cades Reef?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
