We had such an amazing time at sail WILD HEARTS today! Our kiddos said this was the best part of our vacation so far! We saw jelly fish, dolphins, and crabs galore! They even took us to a private island where the water was gorgeous, and we could see right down to the bottom!

Great sunset sail experience! So relaxing and fun. We saw several dolphins along the way. This great value includes water, soft drinks & snacks. We were also allowed to bring our own wine on board. Friendly staff & crew. Highly recommend.

I’ve been on Wild Hearts 4 times. We always see dolphins. Awesome staff and snacks.

SAILING ACTIVITIES

Gulf Shores and Orange Beach are excellent areas to sail from. The Alabama Coastal region is pristine and the waters are teeming with sea life. There are many options for getting out onto the water and each has its own benefit. Chartered tours allow you to see hidden pockets or special local gems. The cruise captains also know where the action is—whether it’s dolphin sightings, diving or the best fishing holes.

While sailing is an activity in of itself, there are also many other options during your time on Gulf waters.

Fishing – Fishing is prolific in Alabama's Gulf Coast. It’s also a straightforward process to find out about regulations, permits, what’s in season, and more. If you go the fishing charter route, guides will provide you with the information you need to kick off a successful trip. Some popular “catches” include grouper, shrimp, crab, king mackerel and mullet.

Diving – It’s a true adventure to explore what lives under the surface. Diving is a popular sailing activity in the Gulf Shores area. During a sailing/diving excursion, you can check out wrecks, sea life and other treasures hidden in the depths.

Nature viewing – From Perdido Key to Dauphin Island, Gulf Shores and Orange Beach holds many species of gulf coast birds , fish and wildlife in the water, air and on land. Alabama’s Gulf Coast is popular with birders who come to see numerous species and abundant seabirds here year-round. In the water, you’ll find dolphins, fish and maybe even a manatee. On the shores, you'll be sure to spot some sea turtles, butterfly migrations and alligators!

Bring Your Own Boat

Or Rent One

For some people, bringing their own boat is considered the perfect vacation. Luckily for them, Gulf Shores and Orange Beach are boat-friendly areas. With 11 boat launches and plenty of parking, bringing your sailboat is easy. You’ll find many maintenance and repair shops as well as marinas stocked with the essentials for boating. The Gulf Shores sailing community is friendly and will surely send you to some stunning spots.

Sailing Charters

Several outfitters offer sailing excursions with a captain. Some guides will whisk you across the bay and allow you to bring your own cooler of food and drink. Others take you on nature excursions, which are designed to show you the areas that have abundant wildlife viewing. You’ll also find different times for Gulf Shores sailing tours. Dinner sailing is popular and catching an epic sunset is often the goal. However, all of the tours are ideal for capturing those picture-perfect scenes, so don’t leave your camera behind.

Boat Rentals

If you have experience on the water, you may want to choose a sailboat rental instead of a cruise. Gulf Shores and Orange Beach have outfitters that offer boat rentals for the experienced captains. Sailboat rentals are an excellent way to explore the Gulf without a timeline. Talk to the locals about great spots and spend full days or more discovering the Gulf.

HAPPY VACATIONERS RATE US 5 STARS!

We very much enjoyed our Sunset Sailing cruise. What a wonderful way to spend our special anniversary! Thank you to Captain Harold and Melanie who were great hosts on their beautiful yacht! It was such a relaxing sail, beautiful sunset ...calm waters... it was a very special evening. We highly recommend sailing with Back Bay Sailing Adventures when vacationing in Orange Beach/Gulf Shores and can’t wait to return for another sail!

Our family of 4 adults and an 8 year old boarded at 5:45 pm for a beautiful, relaxing and enjoyable sunset cruise. Although the wind was not always cooperative we had a great trip. Probably the highlight of the trip was when Darryl let Ava “captain” the ship. Thanks to all

Booked back bay sailing with 5 of my girlfriends for something different for our annual beach trip. Highlight of our trip!! Perfect day. Hosts were SO accommodating and made it a blast. 5 stars all around!! Can’t wait to come back!!!

One of the best things I’ve ever done on a vacation. Melanie and Harold were the perfect hosts. It was a wonderful experience being able to spend an evening on the water and having the sailboat to ourselves. Great with our 9 year old, too!

This was absolutely an awesome evening with family and friends! Capt. Harold was very knowledgeable of the area and a joy to sail with. Very relaxing!
