Dine and Cruise offers a unique blend of fine dining and sightseeing aboard a comfortable vessel departing from Halifax Harbor Marina. As you glide along the Halifax River and Intracoastal Waterway, you'll enjoy panoramic views of Daytona Beach's waterfront mansions, wildlife, and the famous Daytona International Speedway in the distance. The experience includes a multi-course dinner prepared fresh onboard, with options for steak, seafood, and vegetarian dishes. Live music or a DJ sets the mood as the sun sets over the water. The tour is ideal for couples, families, or groups looking for a relaxing evening on the water. The boat features both enclosed, air-conditioned decks and open-air viewing areas, so you can enjoy the breeze. This is a popular activity for celebrating special occasions like anniversaries and birthdays, and it consistently earns high marks for its attentive service and scenic route.
