Why Choose a Booze Cruise in Fort Lauderdale?
Bring your own drinks, bring your crew, and let the captain handle the rest. A booze cruise in Miami is the ultimate way to enjoy cold drinks on warm water with zero responsibility. In Fort Lauderdale, you'll experience the legendary waterways of the Yachting Capital of the World, cruising the Intracoastal Waterway lined with mega-yachts and waterfront estates.
Depart from marinas near Port Everglades and the Intracoastal Waterway. Fort Lauderdale's 300 miles of navigable waterways offer protected cruising through canals lined with mega-yachts and multi-million-dollar homes.

What is included in a booze cruise?
Captain, fuel, and crew are included. We do not provide alcohol — guests bring their own. Coolers and ice chests are available on most vessels. All guests consuming alcohol must be 21 or older per Florida law. BYOB is our policy — bring whatever beverages you want (all guests consuming alcohol must be 21+). Your captain takes you to the best spots for swimming and socializing, often the Haulover Sandbar where food boats come to you. Bluetooth speakers, coolers, and a great attitude are standard on every vessel. The captain can limit alcohol service if safety becomes a concern.

Most booze cruises book 4-6 hours — long enough to cruise to a sandbar, anchor, swim, and enjoy the full day without rushing. Bring a cooler full of your favorite drinks and plenty of ice.

This keeps your costs down and lets you enjoy exactly what you want. All guests consuming alcohol must be 21 years of age or older per Florida law.
Can the captain stop us from drinking?
Yes. The captain has final authority on all safety matters aboard the vessel. If intoxication-related behavior poses a safety risk, the captain may limit alcohol consumption or terminate the charter early and return to the marina. No refund is issued in this case. Safety is always the top priority.
What should I bring on a booze cruise?
Bring a cooler with your favorite drinks and plenty of ice, snacks or food (or arrange catering through us), sunscreen, towels, and a swimsuit. A waterproof phone case is a great idea. Glass containers are prohibited on sport boats (26'-37') for safety — use cans or plastic bottles instead.
