Plan a Private Fort Lauderdale Dinner Cruise
If there are two leaders of luxury, it’s good food and big boats. Why not hop on our Fort Lauderdale dinner cruise and experience both? Whether you’re a local or a visitor, any evening is enhanced with a dinner cruise in Fort Lauderdale. Join us for a magical evening under the stars and a night to remember.
On most trips, you'll enjoy an hour-long trip through the New River, passing through a combination of the city’s vast history and modern-day luxuries. Explore staples such as the Stranahan House, Las Olas, River Walk, the extravagant homes of the rich and famous found throughout our Millionaire’s Row boat tour, and the world-famous Port Everglades.
Upon arrival, you’ll be met with peaceful seclusion. Enter our recently renovated cabin, where your five-star dinner awaits, or step off our bow and into one of the best waterfront restaurants in Fort Lauderdale. If dining on board, our hands-off crew will ensure a fully private waterfront dining experience. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply planning a romantic evening on the water, one of our Fort Lauderdale dinner cruises will create unforgettable memories.
Most of our Fort Lauderdale dinner cruises start at the end of the New River, passing directly through the heart of the city. Take a leisurely river cruise on our bow, and experience downtown Fort Lauderdale's nightlife and historic remnants. From there, enter Millionaires Row and explore the opulent scenery as we pass the most extravagant homes in America.
If opting for our private chef experience, we’ll head north and anchor at one of the many secluded lakes in the Intracoastal Waterway, building the most romantic dinner on a yacht in Fort Lauderdale. Once anchored, we’ll shut the engines off, allowing you to intake the quiet ambiance of the calm waters and starlit night sky.
When ready, enter the cabin with your meal awaiting you, or step off the boat and into any of the Fort Lauderdale restaurants on the water. Enjoy an intimate evening with a private dinner cruise for two or an exciting night with friends and family. With endless options and first-class service, we can accommodate any desires.
