Recently we were lucky enough to be in sunny and warm Naples Florida. We were looking for something to do besides play golf and swim. You can do that every day but once in awhile it is nice to have a change of pace.
Sweet Liberty is a 51’ catamaran that sails out of Naples harbor. It was still early in the season so there were only 6 of us on the boat. The captain, Mitch, and the crew, Kevin, were professional and very friendly and informative. The boat is well appointed with plenty of cushions and blankets and two bathrooms.
Once we reached the Gulf, Kevin raised the sail and Mitch turned off the motor and we sailed along the coast. The air was brisk and the sailing was terrific. BTW if you are prone to motion sickness, I would recommend Bonine or a similar product.
On the way back into harbor, Kevin spotted some dolphins and Mitch exhibited some stunning piloting as he circled the boat to get back to the dolphins amidst the three other boats vying for glimpses of the dolphins.
The two hour journey was nothing like Gilligan’s Island. It was relaxing and informative, as well as eye opening at the exhibition of wealth in the Port Royal community. As a native and frankly you don’t meet many people who are Naples natives, Mitch had a wealth of information regarding the sights and the community. The price for two was $62.00 which seemed like a bargain for the experience.
I am not an employee and have no financial affiliation of any type with Sweet Liberty, this post is just based on a very pleasant experience.

More importantly, it was a pleasure meeting you, and shooting the breaze when we did.
