Sunset Sailing Cruise

We very much enjoyed our Sunset Sailing cruise. What a wonderful way to spend our special anniversary! Thank you to Captain Harold and Melanie who were great hosts on their beautiful yacht! It was such a relaxing sail, beautiful sunset ...calm waters... it was a very special evening. We highly recommend sailing with Back Bay Sailing Adventures when vacationing in Orange Beach/Gulf Shores and can’t wait to return for another sail!

Sunset Cruise

Our family of 4 adults and an 8 year old boarded at 5:45 pm for a beautiful, relaxing and enjoyable sunset cruise. Although the wind was not always cooperative we had a great trip. Probably the highlight of the trip was when Darryl let Ava “captain” the ship. Thanks to all

Terrific Experience!

One of the best things I’ve ever done on a vacation. Melanie and Harold were the perfect hosts. It was a wonderful experience being able to spend an evening on the water and having the sailboat to ourselves. Great with our 9 year old, too!
