Half Day Sail and Snorkel with the Turtles
Overview
Snorkel and Sail with the USCG Licensed Crew aboard the Sailing Yacht "FURY", a beautifully restored Morgan 46' Ketch. We actually "SAIL" out to the refuge and encounter the Green Sea Turtles in their natural Habitat. The reef is home to many species of tropical fish, octopus, stingrays and an assortment of corals. The experienced crew will guide and entertain you while keeping you safe in and out of the water.
The Captain and crew will point out significant historical sites as the Yacht exits the Harbor, the sails will be raised and the guests will experience Real Sailing out to Buck Island. (about 40 min.). Upon arrival, guests will be outfitted with all the gear needed to enjoy this experience. Fury also provides Flotation devices to those individuals who are less comfortable in the water. Rum drinks, beer, soda, bottled water, snacks and FUEL are all included with this trip.
This tour is available for Private groups of 25 or less, as well as individuals and small groups.
