Every cruise departs from Cat’s Paw Marina on the Sebastian River. Live music on most sailings, wine and beer at the Livewell bar, and views you won’t get from a pontoon boat.
Two-Fort Sunset Cruise

Happy Hour Sunset Cruise
Two hours from Cat’s Paw north through the Bridge of Lions, past downtown St. Augustine, to the inlet and back. Live music on board from local Saint Augustine musicians. Adults only. Ideal for a casual evening with friends.

We sail rain or shine. Big storms mean a reschedule, not a refund.
Pick your day on the water
Any green date on the calendar has a cruise with open seats. Click one to see the times, choose your cruise, and book right there. It’s live availability, so what you see is what’s open.
The Sea Love 2 runs sunset cruises, dolphin watching, live music nights, and private charters along the Matanzas River. Most last about 90 minutes, and the boat stays small enough that every seat is a good one.
Weekends and sunset sailings fill first, so grab those dates early.
See you at the dock
Cat’s Paw Marina on the Sebastian River. Free parking, easy walk to the boat, and the Grouper Shack next door if you want to grab a bite before you sail.
