Fort Lauderdale Nightlife on the Water: the Spring Break Booze Cruise After Dark!
Fort Lauderdale has the beach, the bars, and the boulevard, but the experience that sets spring break apart here is the one you can only get from the water. The Sea Rocket spring break booze cruise is a 2-hour nighttime DJ cruise along the Fort Lauderdale Intracoastal Waterway, offering a front-row view of one of the most spectacular urban waterway systems in the country after dark.
Departing at 9:30 PM from Bahia Mar Marina on Fort Lauderdale Beach, the cruise takes you along the glittering Venice of America waterfront, past the illuminated estates of Millionaires’ Row, mega-yachts moored along the Las Olas waterfront, and the Fort Lauderdale skyline reflecting off the Intracoastal. A live DJ provides the soundtrack all night, the full onboard bar is open from the moment you board, and exclusive drink specials are available throughout the cruise. Enjoy a lively, social atmosphere that is unlike anything you will find at a bar or club on shore.
Whether you are visiting Fort Lauderdale for spring break, celebrating a birthday or bachelorette, or simply looking for the best nighttime boat party South Florida has to offer, the Sea Rocket delivers a high-energy and unique experience from departure to dock.
When the cruise ends, the night does not have to. Marina Village and the Shorely, one of Fort Lauderdale’s most exciting new outdoor venues, are a one-minute walk from the dock at Bahia Mar. The Sea Rocket booze cruise is the ideal way to kick off a full night out on Fort Lauderdale Beach, or to make it the main event.

Check in, sign your waiver, and grab your drink package wristband right at the dock so you are ready to go the moment you board.
- Boarding: Once onboard, the crew gets everyone settled and the bar opens immediately. The DJ is already playing and the energy on the Sea Rocket builds from the moment the first guests step on deck.
- The Cruise: Two hours on the Fort Lauderdale Intracoastal Waterway at night is a completely different experience from anything you have done during the day. The Fort Lauderdale skyline reflects off the water in a way that makes for some of the best photos you will take all spring break. The DJ is going, the bar is open, the dance floor is live, and you are out on the water in one of the most iconic spring break destinations in the country. This is what Fort Lauderdale nightlife on the water actually looks like.
- Return to Dock and the After-Party: The Sea Rocket cruises back to Bahia Mar with the same energy it left with. When you step off the boat, Marina Village and the Shorely outdoor club are a one-minute walk away and iconic beach bars are a short walk away. No rideshare, no cover charge line. Just walk straight from the dock into the rest of your night.
