Offshore Experiences & Passagemaking

Are you ready to take your sailing to the next level? Experience the thrill of offshore sailing, the beautiful tranquility of night watches, and all the joys of life on the open ocean with Bella Cruising Experience. We offer highly customizable and tailored offshore charter packages. These charters are very weather dependent.

 

A typical “Offshore Experience” charter will be a 7-day charter, where 2 or 3 days will be spent sailing offshore. We plan a week for these 2-3 day passages because when preparing for a passage, you often cannot set a departure date more than a couple days in advance. This allows us a full week to work on skills, get everyone comfortable with the vessel, go over the float plan, as well as sail around the area while waiting on the right weather window to leave. Although we do not plan on having to cancel an offshore passage, it is a possibility when planning a charter. If we have to cancel an offshore passage, your week long charter will still be full of  sailing and maybe even a scenic trip down the Intracoastal Waterway.

​

Offshore experiences are tailored to be a custom experience for our guests. We will work together when planning a trip to make sure it is the right fit for everyone . We put safety for our guests as our highest priority. We require everyone to have sailing experience prior to booking an offshore passage, but please feel free to talk to us if you feel differently.

 

Please reference our calendar for approximate dates and locations of the offshore passages listed bellow. Our passage dates are not set in stone and may be able to be adjusted to work with your schedule, they are also subject to change as guests book charters. If you are interested in an offshore passage, please reach out to us directly and we can start creating your perfect passage!
