NAUTICAL SUMMER DATES A re you falling short when it comes to date night ideas? It's summer time, the perfect time for a romantic evening cruise. There’s something undeniably romantic about being on the water. If you live somewhere you can take a ferry ride, rent a rowboat, or even hire a yacht for the day, go for it. Even better, try a dinner cruise. When you’re coasting on waves, distractions drift away and you can truly focus on the connection the two of you have, while taking in all the ocean or lake air you can breathe. As a couple, you can enjoy the beauty, the history, and the breathtaking views found all along the coast. Cruises are a great way to get away from the stress and responsibilities of life. Celebrate a festive occasion, sweep a special someone off their feet, take sightseeing up a notch, or simply enjoy the company of family or friends over a unique dining experience. From the brilliant bays, to the sparkling ocean waters of the west coast, and all the rivers and lakes in-between. Look for gators, dolphins, manatees and all the other crazy Florida wildlife to add a little excitement. Whether you prefer pontoon boats, watersports, or a classy sunset yacht cruise there are places all through Florida offering excursions for any type of water lover. Savoring lunch, brunch or dinner on a boat is the perfect way to put a lil' sparkle in your day or in your dates eye. 44  | WINTER GARDEN MAGAZINE | AUGUST 2018
