How the Sunset Cruise Works
We set departure about 90 minutes before sunset on your date. In December that's around 4:00 PM. In late June it's closer to 6:45 PM. The captain heads out while the light is still high, cruises past the waterfront homes north toward Gulf Stream or south toward Lake Boca, and has you facing west with open water in front of you when the sun hits the horizon.
The Intracoastal is protected water, so the ride is flat. The captain plans around the Atlantic Avenue and Linton Boulevard bridge schedules so you're not waiting at a bridge when the light is best.
After sunset, the lights come on along Atlantic Avenue. The cruise back past the restaurants and the bridge is half the trip.
Which Boat for a Sunset Cruise
- Couples and groups up to 10: the 22-foot fun boat or 27-foot picnic boat
- Groups of 10 to 13: a 36 to 52 foot yacht with a restroom and shade
- Groups up to 18: the 26-foot tour boat
The 36, 40, 44, and 52 foot yachts carry a Seabob if someone wants a swim before the light drops. See our boats for photos and capacities.
Why Book Your Sunset Cruise With Us
Timing is everything on a sunset trip. A late start or a slow bridge wait means missing the moment. Our captains run this stretch of the Intracoastal every evening and know the bridge schedules and the best spots to anchor for the view.
Every boat is company-owned and captained by our crew. You book directly with us, fuel and captain are in the price, and the boat in the photos is the boat at the dock. No captain fee at departure, no seat-sharing, no narration you can't hear.
For the full list of routes, see Delray Beach boat tours. For a birthday or proposal, see party and event charters.
