    Oh, the ways you can sail this month

    It’s time to put away your coats and thermals and bust out your beach gear. Spring has officially sprung on the Gulf Coast, and that means it’s time to gather up your friends and family and get out on the water.

    We offer a wide range of sailing experiences to suit every taste. Whether you’re always up for adventure or always down for a little rest and relaxation, we’ve got a cruise for you.

    For the Armchair Marine Biologist

    Our Snorkel & Sail Tour is perfect for the budding marine biologist and nature enthusiast alike. Sail to the Alabama Point jetty, and upon arrival participate in a guided snorkeling adventure with a PADI-certified dive master. Catch a glimpse of the gulf’s abundance of native marine wildlife and make memories to last a lifetime. This two-hour trip includes snorkeling gear, snacks, soft drinks and bottled water – and, of course, life jackets!

    For the Active Adventurer

    The Kayak Adventure Snorkel Sail is designed for thrill-seekers who prefer an action-packed experience. After a sail in the Gulf of Mexico, enjoy a range of high-energy activities such as kayaking, paddleboarding and snorkeling at Robinson Island. This three-hour excursion includes refreshments, and the kayaks, paddleboards and snorkeling equipment are provided at no additional cost.

     

    For the Adrenaline Junkie

    Our Dolphins & Blue Angels Sail will get your blood pumping! Sail the Gulf of Mexico with your family and friends, spotting bottlenose dolphins in their natural habitat. As this cruise approaches Pensacola, we’ll drop anchor in front of a haunted lighthouse and have some time to prepare for the Blue Angels show. You’ll witness the Blue Angels’ heart-stopping escapades from aboard Wild Hearts. Next, sail to a historic Civil War fort in a protected lagoon. While you snorkel, kayak, paddleboard and explore Fort McRae, our crew will prepare a delicious lunch. This six-hour cruise includes refreshments as well as breakfast and lunch. Life jackets and kayaks, paddleboards and snorkeling equipment are included!

    For the Love Birds

    Love is always in the air along the coast, and you’re sure to feel it on our Sunset Cruise. Bid farewell to the day and watch the sun go down while enjoying nature aboard Wild Hearts with your honey. On this 90-minute to two-hour trip, we provide refreshments and light hors d’oeuvres, but feel free to bring your own bottle of champagne or wine to set the mood.

    For the Family

    For the fun-loving family, we offer one of our most popular sails, the Family Adventure Sail. A little catch-and-release fishing, a little snorkeling and swimming, and a whole lot of fun awaits your family on this excursion. Plus, we’ll make it easy on you by capturing the best moments of the day and posting photos and videos to our social media sites promptly. On this two-hour cruise, life jackets are included, and soft drinks and snacks are available for purchase.

    With all of these options, April is going to be a month of non-stop fun at Sail Wild Hearts! When you’ve decided which cruises are a good fit for you and your crew, give us a call at 251-981-6700 to reserve your spot.

  • A Wild Hearts Spring Break

    A Wild Hearts Spring Break

    It’s hard to believe, but spring break will be here before you know it! Students will be itching to get out and be adventurous, while parents will be looking for fun, but also a little downtime. How do you get the best of both worlds without breaking the bank? A Wild Hearts sail of course!

    If your group likes the excitement of experiencing wildlife up close, the Snorkel & Sail Tour is a good option. Sail to Alabama Point jetty and immerse yourself in a snorkeling adventure as you swim among native marine animals. Guided by a PADI-certified dive master, you’ll experience amazing sights that will have your family in awe.

    If some in your group are less keen to jump into the water, no problem. Enjoy the sail to Alabama Point, and relax on the sand or on the catamaran.

    For those looking for a little more adventure, the Kayak Adventure Snorkel Sail has it all. Jump in a kayak and weave around Robinson Island, or hop on a paddleboard and see how far your balance can take you. Snorkel off the island and find various creatures lurking near the shoreline. There’s also always the option to simply soak in the sun and enjoy the sights and sounds from your beach towel.

    Whichever cruise you choose, we hope we can add a little more adventure and excitement to your spring break. Check our online booking calendar for availability.

  • Choose Your Own Adventure in Orange Beach

    Choose Your Own Adventure in Orange Beach

    Flash back to your adolescence and take a walk down memory lane. It’s time to choose your own adventure. The best part? The crew at Wild Hearts has plenty of adventures ready for you on your next beach vacation.

    If you’re a history buff, the Dolphins & Blue Angels Sail is the best adventure waiting for you. Sail near historic forts on the way to watch elite pilots practice their adrenaline-pumping stunts. On the sail back to port, the crew will stop for snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding and exploring Fort McRea. Lunch is served on this all-day adventure.

    Scuba divers, listen up! For your choose-your-own adventure, put a check mark by the Perdido Key Scuba/Snorkeling Sail. This is the newest scuba adventure available in Orange Beach. Sail away with experienced divers to the Perdido Key snorkel reef where the crew will anchor near the site for a guided tour of an artificial reef, a creation of 24 sunken structures that have become home to many forms of marine life.

    Maybe your adventure seeking is of the softer variety. If so, put your check mark beside the sunset cruise. Sail off into gentle gulf breezes and watch the sun sink into the horizon. Sunsets are especially breathtaking during the fall months in Orange Beach. Pack a small cooler with drinks and snacks and enjoy a relaxing ride aboard the catamaran.
