Step aboard from Destin HarborWalk and enjoy an unforgettable dinner cruise along the iconic Destin waterfront. Watch the sun set over Crab Island, spot dolphins, and take in the coastal charm from our 80-ft riverboat. Featuring a rotating menu from top local restaurants and optional themed entertainment, the Destin Dinner Cruise is a can’t-miss highlight of your vacation. Full bar service is available every night, along with a Sunset Cruise. This show blends a three-course meal with nonstop entertainment. It’s ideal for date nights, girls’ trips, group outings, or anyone who likes their comedy a little bit criminal. Whether you’re a foodie, a fan of true crime, or just love a good laugh — this show delivers suspense with a side of sauce.

Enjoy a relaxing and scenic evening on the water with our Destin Harbor Tour. This all-ages cruise departs from Destin Harbor and offers a beautiful way to wind down your day — with gentle coastal breezes, golden sunset views, and the sparkling lights of Crab Island and the harbor as night falls. Perfect for families, couples, and groups of all ages, this laid-back tour features light music, stunning photo opportunities, and a relaxing cruise experience that showcases the natural and coastal charm of Destin after dusk. Special Saturday Night Fireworks: Join us on Saturdays for our Riverboat Fireworks Cruise — a festive evening on the water featuring fireworks over Destin Harbor! Please note that this is a cruise-only ticket with no dinner option. Bar service will be available throughout the cruise.

Set sail under the stars for an unforgettable late-night cruise along Destin Harbor. The Destin Booz Cruise is our 21+ floating nightlife experience, featuring scenic views, cocktails, music, and laid-back party vibes. Whether you're visiting for vacation, celebrating a bachelorette bash, or just enjoying a night out, this is your after-dinner hotspot on the water. Boarding directly after our dinner cruise, this event runs nightly and includes drinks, dancing, and panoramic views of Crab Island and the Destin Harbor lights.

Step aboard the Happy Life in Destin for a dinner cruise like no other. “Dinner To Die For” is a live, interactive murder mystery show set aboard our iconic riverboat — and the stage is the kitchen of a fiery culinary competition gone wrong. As the fictional reality show Kitchen Masters docks in Destin, three rival chefs battle it out for prestige, passion, and a spot on the Happy Life’s international dining team. But when one chef winds up dead mid-course, your dinner becomes a crime scene — and you're part of the investigation. With a three-course meal, outrageous characters, and a plot packed with sabotage, scandal, and improv comedy, this hilarious experience delivers nonstop laughs and interactive fun under the stars. Perfect for date nights, group outings, or anyone who loves a little chaos with their cuisine.
