October 2026 Great Loop Link

Sometimes the Great Loop journey takes an unexpected turn—or, in this case, asks you to slow down and stay awhile.

Heading south to Florida this fall? We’ve got two new sponsor marinas worth putting on your radar—Four Fish Yacht Club & Marina on the Treasure Coast and Westshore Yacht Club & Marina in South Tampa. Consider them two more great places to drop the hook, tie up, and enjoy a little Florida sunshine! And dreaming about your next adventure? Meet Sundowner Travel, our newest sponsor—and future Loopers—who can help you plan your next getaway, whether it’s by boat, ship, or somewhere far beyond the horizon.

You’re Looping in the digital age! These days, a tremendous amount of information is right at your fingertips, making life on the Loop easier than it was even a few years ago. About 3-6 months before departure, you'll want to investigate some boating apps and find your favorites.
