Unfortunately, all cruises to the friends of Anclote Lighthouse in October are canceled. We suffered a catastrophic loss from hurricane Helene and are unable to provide any charters or cruises in the entirety of October.

Calling All Pasco music trivia peeps! If there was ever a time you’re friendly neighborhood trivia guy needed help. This is Shirley it. If anyone is willing to come help us get this house cleared out we would be forever grateful. We cannot get the muck cleanup and the drywall cut out until we can get this house cleared. I’m not gonna lie. It’s gonna be a hot growing job, but we would be forever grateful.

There are a lot of people offering charters to the Friends of Anclote Key State Park and Lighthouse open house this year. Please make sure that your captain has a valid US Coast Guard license and that it is current. Your captain is required to show you his/her license if you request to see it.

From BoatUS.com:

If you're required to provide any money, fuel, or supplies before or after the operator allows you to get underway on the vessel, the vessel is operating as a charter and must be operated by an individual who has a valid Coast Guard-issued Merchant Mariner's Credential. The operator must have this credential on board.

That's a wrap, folks! What a great day for a double-charter today at Friends of Anclote Key State Park and Lighthouse. The lighthouse will be open again in October but Pasco Sunset Cruises still does river cruises, sunset cruises and bar hopping charters. Shelly the Party Seahorse approves!

We're full, folks! We're totally booked for Saturday for Friends of Anclote Key State Park and Lighthouse.

If you have a party of three or more and don't want to spend $400-500 dollars to rent a boat, we can arrange a special charter for you on Sunday. That would be a great Mother's Day gift!
