A sunset cruise on a private yacht with a secluded cay at your back and a bottle of bubbly between you and your partner may be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but it's not nearly as out of reach as you may think. The Barefoot Sailing sunset champagne cruise can make your romantic fantasy a reality, while Seahorse Sailing Adventures' sunset dinner cruise takes fine dining offshore. The Bahama Mama sunset dinner cruise is geared toward the convivial couple who want to meet other lovebirds bent on experiencing the best of the open ocean. Barefoot Sailing and Seahorse Sailing Adventures cruises depart from Nassau, and Bahama Mama sets sail from Freeport.
