Have you booked your sunset-dolphin cruise yet?

When you think of a Florida island beach vacation, do visions of sunsets and dolphins jumping in the waves come to mind? You can make this scene a reality on your next trip to Sanibel Island when you stay with us! Captiva Cruises offers exclusive sunset/dolphin cruises for guests of The Castaways, Beachview Cottages and 'Tween Waters Inn. These cruises run every other Wednesday up until Easter and leave from the 'Tween Waters Inn marina, which is about 2 miles from The Castaways.


The cruises depart at 5 pm and return about two hours later. Guests will watch for dolphins that swim alongside the Lady Chadwick as the boat cruises toward beautiful Redfish pass to enjoy a spectacular view of the sunset over the Gulf of Mexico. Cheese, crackers, fruit nibbles and a cash bar are available on board. Inside and outside seating make this the perfect way to end a day of fun in the Florida sun.



The bottlenose dolphins that live in the waters around Sanibel Island love to play in the wake of the boat giving guests some amazing photo opportunities. We've even seen mother dolphins swimming with their young calves and teaching them how to jump in the wake of the boat.



Tickets are available for purchase by Castaways guests in the front office upon your arrival. Please call The Castaways at 1-800-375-0152 for details and pricing.
