Pineapple Ketch & Sea Sauna

The floating sauna was a surreal experience. This is contrast therapy at its finest. This is the ultimate God-built cold plunge: the Atlantic. It is the hottest sauna I have ever been in which makes me think all the “wellness spa” experiences are bogus. This is the real deal. It is so hot that when you step outside at the end of October it feels like you’re in Miami. Climbing down into the ocean is cold but your body acclimates and loves the relief from the heat. Then you go back to the sauna and instantly feel this calming, meditative effect. I can see why people are addicted to contrast therapy. The difference between here and a spa is the floor to ceiling window overlooking the river. You’re on a cloud while watching the clouds, and the shimmer of the water, and birds diving for their prey. It was absolutely magical! Will be back!

We had amazing sailing trip experience with Pineapple Ketch! The weather was windy in our favor and sunset colors were really beautiful! Thanks to the crew, Justin and Josh, for making it both fun and safe!

A most enjoyable late afternoon sail out of Kennebunkport! We sailed at 4 pm as a private charter( our family of 11 ) … Gavin the first mate was friendly, outgoing and informative and James did a great job as the Captain ! The scenery was gorgeous .. we saw lots of seals ! Our entire family sailed with us and the weather was beautiful, seas calm and the sailing trip was so enjoyable ! Highly recommend!

Relaxing trip. Guides were very kind. Calm waters on the day we took the trip! BYOB and snacks. Plenty of space on the boat. Very peaceful sunset trip. Would recommend!

What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. Captain Justin and his crew, Josh were friendly and informative. We had a wonderful time.

Professional, experienced, great personalities….answers to your questions. Neat clean sailboat and an hour and a half is just right A great way to beat the heat.

We had an unforgettable experience. Captain Jim and First Mate Abbie were knowledgeable, friendly, fun, and professional. Thank you both! We embarked on an evening sail September 14, 2024 and the weather was perfect, the ocean flat and gentle. Abbie told great stories about the houses along the coastline, and we even encountered a few seals. We will be back to celebrate our wedding anniversary again! Thank you so much!

We had an amazing private charter sunset sail on The Pineapple Ketch to celebrate family birthdays. Captain Nick was great in suggesting a route to us and asking for our feedback. He really sensed what was important to us for our evening sail. He was interesting and handled the boat w great ease, safety and comfort in mind. Abby was the best 1st Mate. She was knowledgeable with lots of interesting info about Kennebunkport & the area. She was very accommodating & hospitality oriented and insured we were all well taken care of including our 85 year old Nana. Highly recommend The Pineapple Ketch. Everyone loved it! Highlight of several summer 2025 memories for many.
