Adult Twilight BYOB Cruise | Friday, July 31st | 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM

Trade the standard Friday night routine for the ultimate island-style happy hour - Reggae on the River! On Friday, July 31st, we are cranking up the good vibes on our popular Adult Twilight BYOB Cruise with a very special guest: local favorite Jimmy Beats, bringing his signature reggae sounds live on board.

Leave the history lessons at the dock because this exclusive, adults-only (21+) cruise is purely a sunset celebration. Pack your favorite cooler with your preferred beers, wines, mixed drinks, and snacks, and settle in for two full hours of pure, unplugged relaxation. As we cast off into the twilight, the rhythmic, laid-back beats of live reggae will provide the perfect soundtrack to your evening. We’ll cruise the pristine local waterways, drifting past the charming shrimp boats of Fernandina, the majestic walls of historic Fort Clinch, and the untouched maritime forests of the Cumberland Island National Seashore.

Keep your eyes on the water, our local wild dolphins love to surface and dance alongside the boat during the golden hour. Watch the sky catch fire with a spectacular Florida sunset as you sip your drink and let the tropical rhythm carry your worries away. Whether you’re planning a memorable date night, a lively pre-dinner kickoff with friends, or just need to unwind after a long week, this is the boat you want to be on.
Duration: 2 Hours (7:00 PM – 9:00 PM)
