Sunset Sail with Kathleen D Sailing CatamaransThe experience
The sail departs before sunset so the evening has time to unfold on the water. From Sarasota, the route aims toward Big Sarasota Pass and the Gulf horizon. From Longboat Key, private sails cross the north end of Sarasota Bay with the sun falling beyond Longboat Key.
What to expect
Sail toward Big Sarasota Pass for a west-facing view over the Gulf of Mexico as daylight gives way to evening.
Private Longboat Key departures sail the north end of Sarasota Bay with the sunset settling beyond the key.
Date night, anniversary, family evening or a quiet gathering with friends—the changing sky does most of the decorating.
On the water
Some nights arrive in warm gold; others build through clouds into deep orange and violet. The open deck gives everyone room to watch the horizon change.
