Your private sailboat charter in Fernandina Beach
A sailboat charter in Fernandina Beach is one of the most relaxing ways to see Amelia Island. Our 33-foot sailboat takes 3 to 6 guests out on the Amelia River with a USCG-licensed captain. Once the sails are up and the engine goes quiet, all you hear is wind and water.
You can sit back and enjoy the ride, or you can take the helm and help trim the sails. Either way, your captain sets the course for the best breeze of the day. Along the way, watch for dolphins, shrimp boats and the old brick walls of Fort Clinch. On longer sails, you can head toward Fort Clinch State Park and Cumberland Sound.
Charters leave from Fernandina Harbor Marina at the foot of Centre Street. For two people, book our romantic sail for two instead, which is priced for couples.
Why guests book the Sailboat
Real sailing First the engine goes off, and then the sails go up. After that, feel the boat heel gently in the breeze.
Take the helm If you want to learn, your captain will show you how to steer and trim the sails.
Wildlife Dolphins are common on the Amelia River, and pelicans follow the shrimp boats.
Private group Only your 3 to 6 guests are on board, so there are no strangers.
