RATES

 

 

 

 

PRIVATE CHARTER RATES:

 

Each private Key Sailing experience can be designed personally.

 

The cost of $200 per hour with no deposit includes your captain and everything but voluntary gratuity for up to six guests. Additional guests on any cruise are $80 per person, with a maximum total of twelve guests, making the longer sails more affordable for larger groups.

 

Because we never take a deposit, we don't need a final guest count until the day of the sail, and because all charters are private charters that you design yourself, you simply pay accordingly that day.

 

Our most popular package is three hours, but we also offer two hours, four hours, and even half hour increments such as 2 1/2 and 3 1/2 hours, to make budgeting easier for you.

 

Are you a repeat guest?

Email a photo from any previous Key Sailing cruise to siestakeysailing@gmail.com to receive $30 off your next 3 hour private charter in 2022. Please also let us know if you wish to have your photos considered for publishing in Jan's upcoming book project: www.sailinghomesarasota.com.

We accept cash, checks or credit cards after your charter to keep things easy and flexible in case of changing weather or in case your needs change. Gratuities are graciously accepted.

 

 

WHAT'S INCLUDED

 

• Music or the quiet of the lapping waves
• Comfortable life jackets for your children

• Pillows, cushions, and back rests
• Snuggies and blankets to enjoy a winter sunset
• Snacks and soft drinks, bottled water
• Photos, if you wish
• Sailing lessons - also optional
• Chocolates for everyone!

 

We are also happy to offer local ideas to cater lunch or dinner for your special anniversary celebration. Each charter is customized for your needs. If you come in the morning, Jan can even make a coffee run for your family if you ask her in advance.

 

People often also ask about adult beverages. We do have bottle

openers and glasses. You are welcome to bring white wine (red can be a bit messy), champagne or beer. (Hard liquor is not appropriate for a sailing charter.) The Key Breeze is also a "smoke free" vessel.

 

 

PACKAGES

 

Choose the Package which best accommodates your sailing desires.

Dolphin sightings are common (but never promised) on all cruises.

 

TWO HOUR BAY CHARTERS are great for families in the morning, for a taste of true sailing in the afternoon, or for a spectacular sunset cruise at the edge of the Gulf of Mexico! Perfect for wildlife sightings and for the budget. We usually have a waiting list, so please book your sailing choice as early as possible!

 

THREE HOUR DAY OR SUNSET CHARTERS are our most popular choice to give you that extra hour in the bay or gulf, or as many guests prefer, to head under the John Ringling Causeway toward the Ringling Mansion in the North Bay. You and the captain will plan your route right from the yacht on the day of sail!

 

FOUR HOUR CHARTERS give you enough time for the option of true Gulf sailing. In addition, for those who choose to take the helm, a sailing certificate is provided. These exclusive sails are offered as private charters only.
