About this cruise
Our most adventurous group tour, the 3 Hour Coastal Fun Cruise takes you on a full journey south along Daytona Beach's Intracoastal Waterway, all the way to Ponce Inlet and onto the majestic Atlantic Ocean.
Along the way, your captain will point out the elegant waterfront mansions, tropical wildlife, and the iconic Ponce Inlet Lighthouse — the tallest lighthouse in Florida. Dolphins are frequently spotted in the inlet, and manatees often make an appearance in the calmer stretches of the waterway.
With three full hours on the water and a maximum of 9 guests, this cruise gives you the time and space to truly take it all in. Water and snacks are included — just bring your sense of adventure.
