Motorboat Charters
Our 24' Eastern, the Persephone III, is the perfect charter boat for Moriches Bay.
Persephone III’s open stern provides a comfortable space for four adults and her shallow draft allows us to explore nearly every corner of our bay.
Motorboat charters are typically two hours long, departing from Silly Lily Fishing Station in East Moriches.
If you’re lucky enough that your home has a dock on Moriches Bay and would like to be picked up, or if you would like to schedule a charter longer than two hours, please send us an email before booking.
🛥️ Sunset & Bay Tours
A great choice for friends and families that want to see the bay from a new perspective.
Depending on the wind and tide, we can shore up at an island in the bay, or anchor and walk over to the ocean.
Our bay tours are available in the morning, midday, late afternoon, or sunset.

🛥️ Sunset Dinner Charter
Create new “core memories” with a delicious meal out on the bay with great company.

Sailing Charters
Learning to become a competent sailor is what we do best. But at the end of the day, even we can't resist the temptation of a sunset cruise.
Join us for a sunset cruise of your own! We also have several openings each day for bay charters or our famous Sail, Swim, and Beach Day!
Moriches Island Sailing charters sail out of Sily Lilly Fishing Station.
*We may be able to pick you up at a private home for an additional cost. If you're interested in sailing from your home, please email us before booking.
⛵Sunset and Bay Cruises
While many of our customers come to Moriches Island Sailing to learn how to sail, others just want to get out on the water to sit back, relax and enjoy the view!
We charter our Flying Scot at all times of the daylight hours but we always recommend a sunset cruise since it's a particularly beautiful time to be out on the water.
Bring some friends, some beverages and snacks. We can comfortably accommodate four adults on our Flying Scot, or up to six if it is a mix of kids and adults (and you're willing to squeeze 😅).

⛵ Sail, Swim, and Beach Day
If you'd like to spend even more time sailing...
...and exploring the beautiful islands in Moriches Bay, our Sail, Swim & Beach Day is a great option, especially for families!
These tours are three hours long, with about half the time spent sailing and the rest exploring ashore.
After a safety briefing, we set sail for an island on Moriches Bay that is only accessible by boat.
Once the anchor is down, we're happy to show you around the island. The view from the top of the dunes is breathtaking, and there's always some sea life to check out.
You're welcome to bring lunch and have a picnic on the beach, go for a swim, build some sandcastles, or do all of the above!
