Anna Maria Island is a breathtaking vacation destination for those looking to experience the natural beauty of the Gulf of Mexico. You can always spend your days strolling along the pristine white beaches, but if you are looking for the perfect experience during your stay, there is only one option: a sunset cruise.
With thousands of tourists flocking to Anna Maria Island each year, taking a sunset cruise is the ultimate way to experience the true beauty of the Gulf of Mexico without being overwhelmed by fellow tourists.
The options can be overwhelming, but worry not! Here are just a few of the best sunset cruises near our Anna Maria Island rentals.

As a thank you from Captain Jones, active military personnel are considered guests of the captain and do not pay to experience this phenomenal sunset cruise.
Island Pearl Excursions
