Q&A

Q: Are there age limits for kids on the sunset sails?

A: There's no strict age limit, but it's definitely better suited for kids who are 5 and up. The crew does a great job keeping everyone safe, but younger kids might not find it as enjoyable. Just make sure to bring life jackets for little ones if they don't provide them.

Q: What should we wear for a sunset sail? Is it chilly on the water?

A: Definitely layer up! It can get pretty breezy on the water, especially at sunset. I'd suggest a light jacket and comfy shoes. Also, don’t forget sunglasses and sunscreen; the reflection off the water can be intense!

Q: How does parking work at the Camden Harbor for the sail?

A: There are a few parking lots near the harbor, but they fill up fast during peak season! It's best to arrive early, especially for sunset sails. Also, check out the metered spots along the street by the harbor.

Thinking of a day sail on the Schooner Surprise, worth it?

I found this day sail experience on the Schooner Surprise and it sounds so fun! I’ve never gone sailing before, but I love being outdoors. The price is unbeatable, and I heard the views are amazing. Is it really as good as it sounds? What if it rains?
