Few experiences compare to the exquisite bliss of enjoying a picturesque sunset from the deck of a boat, all while reveling in the bliss of a handsomely prepared meal. In Gulf Shores, we cherish our scenery and we love our down-home cooking. Enjoy the best of both worlds and treat yourself to an incredible sightseeing and dining experience with a Gulf Shores dinner cruise. Read on to learn more about the best Gulf Shores dinner cruises in the area.
In Orange Beach, the Perdido Queen Dinner Cruise departs from Hudson Marina and takes you on a sightseeing tour where you’ll enjoy live entertainment, dining, and dancing. Two entrees are served in the self-service buffet, accompanied by a selection of sides and salads. Some of their other fun-filled cruise options include Brunch and Live Jazz Music, Dinner and a Murder Mystery, and other private events.
Alabama Cruises also offers dinner cruises out of Orange Beach, with travel paths that take you along Perdido Bay and the less-traveled paths through the back bays of the Gulf Shores from Orange Beach. Their sunset dinner cruises come with a menu of Southern, Cajun, and American classics. They stand out from other dinner cruises in Gulf Shores for their outstanding menu options, which include locally-grown produce and fresh seafood that is caught during the cruise! Many of their cruises enjoy live music, as well, that you can dance the night away to.
The Southern Rose is a spacious double-deck cruise ship with inside and outside seating so you can enjoy sailing during rain or shine. Cruises depart from Happy Harbor Marina in Orange Beach and include dolphin cruises, sunset dinner cruises, and exhilarating parasailing adventures.
If you’re planning a dinner party for a large group celebration, Southern Rose is happy to accommodate you! Their Gulf Shores dinner cruises can cater to over one hundred people. On this cruise, you can gaze out over the Gulf of Mexico’s glistening blue-green waves from the upper deck of the boat, or dine on a selection of freshly caught seafood from local restaurants in the massive dining room, which accommodates upwards of sixty-five people. Southern Rose can also be chartered for weddings and other private events.
The Sunny Lady offers fantastic afternoon and sunset cruises. Although dinner is not served on board, they do offer a concession stand with light refreshments and beverages. If you’re interested in Gulf Coast wildlife, you’ll want to check out their dolphin cruises. You’ll be mesmerized as you watch the wild dolphins play in their natural habitat in the scenic waterway.
