Located right off Pensacola Beach Boulevard in Pensacola Beach, Florida, Jolly Sailing & Dolphin Cruise gives visitors the chance to choose the adventure of their dreams. Whether you want to go sailing, take a dolphin cruise around the Pensacola Bay and Santa Rosa Sound, or you’re all about taking in the sunset from the Bay, there’s something for everyone. Founded in 2011, the family-owned business was created by the owners out of their own passion for exploring and sailing the waters along the Pensacola Gulf Coast.
Jolly Sailing & Dolphin Cruise was started with the Jolly mon, a 27-foot American Mariner Sailboat, which is a perfect choice for sunset, sailing, and snorkeling tours. Interested in hearing what’s been added to their ship experience? The Jolly Dolphin was added to the Jolly Sailing & Dolphin Cruise tours, a 42-foot powerboat triton passenger sea vessel that can hold as many as 26 passengers. With three different boats to choose from, Jolly Sailing offers many different excursions to visitors, both shared and private.
Cruising adventures vary in length from two hours to an entire day out on the water. Vessels are comfortable and safe, making a water adventure perfect for the whole family. Changing areas and private restrooms are available onboard all vessels, as well. When you book a cruise, you’ll be provided with premium snacks, bottled water, and other beverages while you’re out, and there’s seating in both the shade and the sun available. You can even book special occasion trips for graduations, birthdays, engagement proposals, or anniversaries, although you’ll want to make a reservation.
