Dinner or Cocktail Sailing Cruise in Bermuda?
 
My mother (active/ fit 82 y/o) and I (active/ fit 43 y/o) will be spending a week in Bermuda (Southampton Parish) in May and would like to take a dinner or cocktail sail, is there anything like that available? We are from NYC and the Hamptons and are NOT looking for a party boat with all you can guzzle alcohol / DJ/ buffet/ etc… We would like to have a shared (not private chartered) quiet dinner or cocktail cruise with a lovely meal and/ or champagne/ wine/ cheese, etc… so we can enjoy the island from the water and maybe watch the sunset. I’ve done some research and I have only found private charters or party boats.

We did a sunset catamaran sail out of Dockyard a few years ago, nice and relaxed, drinks offered but not a booze cruise - I will see if I can find the name of the boat company.

Here is the company we used - scroll down to find the sunset catamaran sail.

Sorry, meant to mention that it wasn't high-end/cocktails/canapes kind of thing, just a Rum Swizzle and a really nice evening out. And being on a catamaran meant sitting on cushions right on the hull, if you're ok with that.

Be sure and enjoy Bermuda's wonderful ferry system while you are there. They offer a lovely view from the water.

Have a great time. Some of my happiest memories are of trips I made with my mother, how she loved Bermuda.
