What an amazing experience the boat leaves out of Shepards park at 6 for a beautiful sunset sail. The Lily manned by Captain Fred and sail mate Corey were awesome.Great music for the whole ride and you can bring food and drinks. The boat sails all the way to The Estuary so I even got to see where I live from the water. You mingle with the other guests on board sharing pics and stories. We even saw some dolpins.What a great time. I would definitely recommend this adventure if you love the water and watching the sunset over the water.
What an absolutely amazing experience we had on our sunset cruise! Captain Fred was extremely knowledgeable and informative and answered all of our questions. We were lucky enough to only have 8 guests on board with us so it was very private. Met some great people. The weather didnt allow us to see the sunset but we saw a great lightning show. So I guess we will just have to do another cruise😀
What an incredible farewell to my Dad to share with our family on the Schooner Lily on what would have been his 92nd birthday.Two years ago we had taken a trip with Fred and his team on the St. Lucie for his birthday and my Dad loved the experience...the winds were good, the sunset was perfect and the camaraderie on the sail was wonderful with everyone aboard happy to hear the stories, the history and of course the Conch Horn with the sunset.This time we had My Mom, My sister and her family from Boston and Nashville, all come down for a private charter Memorial sail in his honor. The stories about my Dad were easy to share and the privacy of the charter with the 12 of us was perfect, (but we could have easily taken more people) We brought rose petals to scatter, that drifted into the River and those memories will stay with us forever.Fred was the perfect balance as a Captain bringing respect, some great history of the boat, and special touches to make everyone feel the magic of my Dads farewell.After our experience, I hope that others may also have the Lily to share any special occasion or family gathering.
Great Sunset Cruise. The ship is perfect for this kind of inshore sail. The captain and first mate are very friendly. They had an acoustic guitar player on this trip, which made it even better. You can bring your own snacks and cocktails. It launches from Sheppards park which provides a nice river shoreline walk-about.
I have sailed many times on the Schooner Lily. It is excellent for all ages! I have brought my daughter along since she was a baby; she is now six and still loves it. Captain Fred provides a spirited and informative tour discussing many things including local wildlife, history, geography, puns and, of course, sailing itself. The crew and tour members are 100% pleasant and friendly and the vibe is relaxed and happy. The adventure is an appreciation of nature, people, local stories and the waters of the treasure coast.
Where do I begin?! This sailing adventure is one for the book of memories. The crew were so accommodating to my little boy even though he started off shy. They gave him little gadgets and binoculars to use which he loved so very much. The music during the sunset cruise was made it so lovely to a aboard. Ive been on a sunset cruise and this is so much more personal than I could have ever imagined. You guys are doing an amazing job. I cant wait to visit again so we can come aboard. So incredibly happy with our experience.
Great time! Classic work boat, not a sport sailboat that heels way over. Skipper and crew did a very friendly, efficient job. My wife, who hates sailboats because they lean, thoroughly enjoyed the cruise.
I took 5 family members out on this cruise. There were only 4 other passengers so we were able to talk amongst ourselves. The skipper pointed out some wildlife as well as other interesting features of the area. We all enjoyed it and I felt my money was well spent.
This was our fourth cruise with Treasure Coast Sailing Adventures. The two captains were very friendly and very accommodating to my family. There were 5 adults and 4children ages four to seven. One of the captains spent time talking with the kids and showing them different types of nautical knots and allowed them to try and make the knots. The children had a great time with the captain. The ship was clean and well maintained as it always has been. We have taken out of town guests as well as local friends on this cruise and nobody has ever been disappointed. Give them a try and you wont be disappointed either.
Booked the sunset sail for a birthday and we had such a wonderful evening. The crew was great, and so talented. They played live music and really kept us entertained. Can’t wait to go on the Schooner Lily again!!
Great sailing experience! Captain was very informative and answered MANY questions from my very inquisitive sons. We will be back for another sailing adventure next year!
We had a great time on this sailboat. The captain and crew were very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. They pointed out a pod of dolphin and an osprey nest. A nice boat with plenty of room to move around.
Oh my word! where do I start..The prices is reasonable, its nothing but good vibes,I definitely recommend yall try this.My girlfriend and I were lucky enough to be the only two on the boat with the captain and we enjoyed the private boat ride.I must say the views was very pleasant, seeing nature and hear/feeling the wind brush against your face and smelling different flavors of nature in the air was absolute magnificent.
This is such a wonderful experience! Even though my family of five were the only passengers, the captain and first mate were wonderful to us! We had such fun with them. They were so nice when my granddaughter got sick and we had to return early. This is our fourth trip but not our last!
My new favorite in Stuart! Took my mom on the sunset sail for Mothers Day and had an absolute awesome time out on the water. We saw dolphins, Black Skimmers, a moonrise of your wildest dreams, and listened to Captain Fred and Jamie play Irish and Scottish songs that made you want to jig. 10000% RECOMMEND
They are good guys. I dealt with Jamie who was nice and professional. The two gentlemen that sailed around were nice as well.
We just enjoyed a relaxing sailing trip aboard the terrific Schooner Lily in Stuart. Captain Nick and First Mate Luke are clearly experienced sailors, and very pleasant and professional. We recommend this cruise without reservation. Thanks for a fabulous afternoon!
We did the sunset sail, we had a great time.
What a great experience and top notch crew.This was our first time sailing and it was a great experience.From the moment I called and spoke with Nick and then the accommodating service from Luke and of course Fred, the captain.We will definitely be back!
Great sailing experience !
Today we went out on the Schooner Lily, it was a beautiful day with winds out of the south at 14mph. It was a great trip, captain Fred was very informative and firstmate Nick did a great job. Very enjoyable.
Nice, pleasant sail up and down the inland waterway. More wind would have been nice, but no one can control that. You can bring your own food and drink of you want to.
Captain Fred and Jamie always go out of their way to make tour charter perfect, unique, and comfortable. I believe that this small business is one of the most charming gifts to Stiart, FL. A wonderful trip for locals and a must for out of town visitors.
The sail was wonderful...Captain Fred is a great guy with wonderful stories as well as a steady hand at the helm. I highly recommend sailing with them!
Looking for a lovely sunset or morning with your out of town guests? Want to show your girlfriend that you are fun and romantic? I highly recommend Schooner Lily. So fun. Captain Fred has brought a bit of Maine charm to warm South Florida. What a gem.
We went on the sunset sail for girls night out and LOVED it. Its a perfect hour and a half to relax and take in the Paradise that we live in. If I could give 10 stars I would. Ill definitely be bringing more guests aboard the Lily. Thank you, team Lily!!
The Schooner Lily is one of the things I love most about our little town of Stuart, Florida. The sunset cruise is gorgeous and Captain Fred and First Mate Jamie even prove a bit of music on the trip. Its fun and casual, just like Stuart. Im away for awhile but will celebrate my return with a sail on the Lily.
Great time with Captain Fred and Mate Lucas. Relaxing, informative and a bargain. Recommend to anyone who wants a leisurely 2 hour break!
Wonderful experience! Captain Fred and Nick were amazing guys. I would highly recommend to anyone.
What a relaxing, enjoyable experience! Will definitely go do it again, maybe a sunset sail next time. Great job crew!
Beautiful old boat and a great crew made for a memorable afternoon.
What a unique and wonderful experience - in this fast paced world it was a joy to experience sailing with nature, and Captain Fred and Jamie made the experience so special and entertaining. Very kid friendly, and the music is spectacular. Fred and Jamie are a beautiful example of two people who have found their calling and life.
A sunset sail on The Schooner Lily is one of my favorite ways to end a day. Ive been many times and look forward to doing it again soon. Ive gotten to help raise the sails and even to fire the signal gun! She is the perfect ship for our shallow Stuart waters and even if you rarely find your sea legs you will love it!
There should definitely be more than 5 stars!!!! This was the most amazing experience!! The views are absolutely breath taking. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable. If you are any where near this is a must!!!!
Loved it!! Will definitely go again!!
Very poor experience trying to book a sailing experience for middle and high school kids, canceled the day before the event. If youre looking for something reliable and from a captain that isnt rude, youre best looking elsewhere.
Sailing aboard the Lily is a wonderful way to spend a few hours relaxing. Knowledgeable and friendly crew.
Wonderful experience highly recommend very relaxing
Amazing
