Overview

Ever tried a sailing trip on a two-hull sailboat? The twin hulls offer extra stability, making for a smooth, laid-back ride. Enjoy a two-hour cruise in Orange Beach aboard the Cetacean, a 52-foot Hawaiian catamaran. With the wind behind us, the Cetacean glides across the back bays of Orange Beach.
Out on the water, you’ll see wildlife in their natural setting—schools of fish swimming by, playful dolphins popping up to say hello, and seabirds diving for a meal. Bald eagles, egrets, herons, osprey, and seagulls are often spotted soaring overhead. This peaceful Alabama cruise is ideal for couples, families, and groups of friends.
We stick to the calm back bays of the Intracoastal Waterway for the smoothest sailing experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will I get seasick on Orange Beach Dolphin Sailing Cruise aboard Catamaran?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
