About this Experience
What you'll do:
Set sail for a night of dinner, drinks, music, and dancing aboard the Starlite Sapphire in St Pete! You and your crew will board a 113-foot dining yacht for a 2.5–3 hour evening cruise featuring reserved tables, beautiful waterfront views, DJ entertainment, and plenty of time to celebrate on the water.
Once onboard, your group can order dinner, appetizers, desserts, cocktails, wine, beer, or other drinks just like you would at a restaurant. After dinner, keep the celebration going with music, dancing, and photo-worthy views from the yacht.
It’s the perfect elevated night-out experience for bachelorette parties, bachelor parties, birthdays, wedding weekends, and groups who want something more special than a standard dinner reservation.
