Toast to the Sunset Aboard the Water Taxi

Hop on board for a delightful three-hour cruise while enjoying the breathtaking views.

From June through November, the Fort Lauderdale Water Taxi hosts a series of Sunset Music Cruises. Guests board the water taxi for three hours to enjoy the sunset while listening to live music, mingling at the open bar, indulging in savory appetizers from Shooters Waterfront and cruising the mansion-lined channels of Fort Lauderdale’s luxurious neighborhoods. A champagne toast is passed as the sun sets. The festivities continue until the stars pierce the night sky.

July’s cruise will take place on Saturday, July 6th from 7 to 9 p.m., with an estimated sunset time of 8:16 p.m. Guests will board the boat at the Shooters Waterfront dock (3033 NE 32nd Ave, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33308). Tickets are $59 and should be purchased in advance online at watertaxi.com/tickets/. The sunset cruise is for adults 18+ only.
