What We Do
We coordinate a FREE fun day on the water for kids with special needs and illnesses with professional captains/crews/businesses that provide: sailing excursions, dolphin cruises and pirate cruises. Most events have space for the parents and sometimes a sibling or two to tag along. All activities are free of charge.
Locations
We have different activities at many different beach locations and marinas in St. Pete Beach, Orange Beach, Perdido Key, Destin, Fort Walton Beach, and Key Largo, Florida.
Scheduling
Boats have maximum seating capacities so we will need to schedule each person in order to give you a smooth experience and to provide a passenger manifest to the captain. Seats are limited on a first-come-first-served basis. We will begin calling in late August so REGISTER NOW on the CONTACT PAGE.
13th ANNUAL CAPTAINS FOR KIDS
IMPORTANT THIS YEAR
​
We will be having this years event on Saturday, September 6th. We will be able to schedule large families of four or more for most dolphin cruises/sailing excursions only. The available seats on the PIRATE CRUISE (when available) are extremely limited (4-5 max). We will give priority to those who have not been able to take a pirate cruise before. Let us know your preference. We will only be able to provide one activity per family.
​​​
In the event that you need to cancel your scheduled activity, we kindly request that please let us know so that we can pass these seats along to another family. We are having a large number of no-shows and this affects our ability to add more volunteering vessels. Thank you in advance for your help with this.
Weather cancellations can happen this time of year due to storms, high winds and rough seas. We will make a weather call on these activities prior to the event. We will normally not cancel dolphin cruises until the day of the event unless there is a pending tropical storm.
We will start scheduling in late-August or early-September when our activity schedule is set. Please be patient as we are busy working until Labor Day. Thanks!
