Weather-Protected Private Nights of Lights Cruise
Experience St. Augustine’s world-famous Nights of Lights from the water aboard your own private, weather-protected boat.
Your spacious boat features clear, see-through panels that help protect you from the wind and chilly weather without blocking the incredible views. Cozy up with fleece blankets as you cruise past the glowing downtown waterfront, the Bridge of Lions and millions of sparkling white lights—with their reflections dancing across the water.
This 90-minute private cruise is all about enjoying the night your way. Bring your own drinks and snacks, connect your favorite music to the Bluetooth sound system, and relax while your captain takes you along St. Augustine’s historic bayfront and Intracoastal Waterway for some of the best views of the lights.
One flat rate covers 1–6 guests, with a slightly higher flat rate for groups of 7–12 guests. A $100 captain fee is paid separately to your captain onboard via cash, Venmo or Zelle.
A fun, festive way for all ages to experience the Nights of Lights—without the crowds, cold or downtown hassle.
