Sailing Charters: Relax, Kick Back, and Enjoy The Sail

Sunset Sails and Daysail Charters

While you are vacationing on Hatteras Island, take a captained sailing charter aboard of our beautiful sailboats. Kickback, relax, and enjoy the sail as your skipper takes you through the Pamlico sound between Buxton, Frisco, and the Hatteras Inlet . Photography opportunities are amazing throughout the day, but perhaps most memorable during the sunset cruises. We offer charters in 2hr, 4hr, and 6hr experiences. All charters leave Buxton Harbor from the Hatteras Sailing Center on Highway 12 across from Pop’s Raw Bar. You are welcome to bring aboard any food and drinks that you like and have the full use of the vessel during your charter. All charters are private experiences for up to 6 guests. Flotilla sails on our catamarans are available for 6-12 guests.
