Amazing yacht rental experience. Ben was great on board, helpful, friendly and on top of everything. Everything went perfect, and the jet skis were superior. Will definitely be back.

DINNER INSPIRATION
Every dinner cruise in Fort Lauderdale is different. Here are the most popular yacht dinner experiences, each fully customizable and arranged by our team.
Time dinner for golden hour on a private sunset cruise. The yacht departs in the late afternoon and cruises the Intracoastal past the downtown skyline and Millionaire's Row as the light turns gold. Watch the sun sink behind Fort Lauderdale, dine as the sky shifts color, and see the waterfront estates light up. The most requested sunset dinner cruise in Fort Lauderdale for good reason.
Drop anchor in the calm water off Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, above a living reef just yards from the beach, with nothing around you but open Atlantic and sky. A private dinner cruise in complete seclusion, served on deck, far from the crowd. One of the most intimate yacht dinner experiences on the water. Add yacht photography to capture the evening under an open sky.
Cruise the historic New River through downtown and glide past the mansion-lined Las Olas Isles canals, Fort Lauderdale's Venice of America, all while dinner is served on board. A sightseeing cruise of the city from the water is a completely different experience. Add a private DJ to set the mood for the full evening on the Intracoastal.
Step aboard a private luxury yacht where a private chef has prepared a multi-course menu built around your preferences. Decorations set the ambiance, rose petals, candles, champagne chilled before you arrive. A perfect setting for an anniversary, a proposal, a birthday, or a quiet romantic dinner cruise for two. Nothing left to arrange, everything done for you.
Tell us what you have in mind, yacht, route, catering, timing, and we build the experience around you. Fast response, personal guidance, everything arranged.

Select a departure marina to see the location
Fort Lauderdale Beach
Fort Lauderdale's most storied marina, on the barrier island between the beach and the Intracoastal and home of the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. A prime departure point for a sunset dinner cruise, with direct access to the Las Olas Isles canals and the open Atlantic.
On the Intracoastal at the eastern end of the Las Olas causeway, steps from the beach and the Las Olas dining and hotel district. A newly rebuilt marina and one of the most convenient boarding points for a romantic dinner cruise along the waterway.
A landmark deep-water marina on the Intracoastal at the 17th Street Causeway, moments from Port Everglades. Preferred for private dinner charters on larger luxury yachts needing deep-water berths and quick access to the open water.
A full-service marina on the 17th Street Causeway with direct Intracoastal access and a short transit to the Port Everglades inlet. Central to the beach and downtown areas and a convenient boarding point for an intimate dinner on the water.
On the Intracoastal just north of the Las Olas causeway, walking distance from the beach. A convenient beach-area departure for a shorter sunset dinner cruise, with quick access to the Las Olas Isles canals.
On the New River in downtown Fort Lauderdale, surrounded by the Riverwalk and the historic district. The best departure for a scenic New River dinner cruise through the heart of the city before reaching the Intracoastal.
A modern full-service marina on the Intracoastal north of Las Olas, near the Galleria. A quieter, lower-traffic boarding point for a private romantic evening, convenient for guests staying in the central and northern beach areas.

Select a destination to see where it is
The most beautiful dinner cruise route in Fort Lauderdale, cruising the Intracoastal as the sun sets behind the city. The waterfront estates glow gold, the yachts along the docks light up, and the water turns to glass. The perfect setting for a sunset dinner cruise on the water.
Fort Lauderdale's Venice of America, a grid of finger islands lined with waterfront mansions and mega-yacht docks. A slow cruise past the estate homes while dinner is served on board, just minutes from the beach marinas. A defining Fort Lauderdale dinner cruise route.
Fort Lauderdale's historic waterway winding through downtown, past the Riverwalk, waterfront restaurants, and a series of drawbridges framed by the skyline. One of the most atmospheric segments of any evening or sunset dinner cruise.
The stretch of the Intracoastal lined with Fort Lauderdale's most extravagant waterfront estates and the mega-yachts docked behind them. A scenic and unforgettable backdrop for a romantic dinner cruise along the water.
A calm, shallow anchorage off the beach above a living coral reef that comes within yards of the shore. Anchor at dusk for a private dinner under the stars, with clear water and open sky in every direction.
One of the busiest cruise ports on the East Coast and Fort Lauderdale's gateway to the Atlantic. Transiting Port Everglades on a private yacht, passing towering cruise ships at the inlet, is a dramatic backdrop for dinner on the water.
Cruise past the downtown skyline and under the bridges of the New River from the water. Best at sunset when the city lights start to come on and the waterfront restaurants fill up along the Riverwalk. A romantic boat ride through the heart of Fort Lauderdale.
WHY CHOOSE THE WATER
Fort Lauderdale, the yachting capital of the world, has one of the most beautiful settings anywhere for an evening on the water. A dinner cruise here is unlike anything a restaurant can offer. Whether you are planning a romantic dinner cruise at sunset or a quiet yacht dinner under the stars, Crown Yachts builds the experience around you from start to finish.

For a dinner cruise on the water, the vessel makes a bigger difference than most people expect. The best choice for a private dinner cruise in Fort Lauderdale is usually a flybridge yacht in the 45-to-65-foot range, with an enclosed air-conditioned salon for dining and an open upper deck for drinks at sunset. A smaller 40-foot private boat works well for couples who want complete privacy and a more intimate romantic boat ride. Browse our full yacht fleet or explore catamaran rentals and luxury yacht rentals to find the right vessel for your dinner and preferred route.

One of the most popular upgrades for a dinner cruise in Fort Lauderdale is having food and drinks professionally arranged before you board. Our private chef service puts a trained culinary professional on board with a personalized menu built around your preferences and dietary needs. Our catering packages cover everything from charcuterie boards and fresh fruit to full multi-course service with wine pairings. When you dine on a private yacht in Fort Lauderdale, everything is ready when you arrive.

The right atmosphere is what transforms a dinner on a yacht in Fort Lauderdale into a truly romantic evening. A private DJ sets up on board and plays music tailored to the mood throughout the charter. For the visual setup, our decoration team prepares everything in advance, rose petals, candles, floral arrangements, and table settings. The yacht is fully dressed before you arrive so you step aboard a beautifully prepared setting. Add yacht photography to capture every moment. All private charters include full crew service throughout.

There is a reason Fort Lauderdale is one of the most romantic settings in South Florida, and nothing captures it better than a sunset dinner cruise on the water. A sunset cruise gives you the skyline at golden hour, the calm of the Intracoastal as the sun sets, and complete privacy. You cruise past the mansions of Millionaire's Row and the Las Olas Isles, watch the city lights reflect on the waterway, and enjoy the evening on your own terms. Planning a birthday or a milestone? We arrange those in Fort Lauderdale too. Also see our Miami romantic dinner cruises.
