Sunset Magic: New Smyrna Beach Cruise

Get ready for a laid-back evening on the water with Captain Falon Morse of Nothin To It Fishing Charters. This 2-hour sunset cruise in New Smyrna Beach is the perfect way to cap off your day, whether you're a local or just visiting. You'll cruise the calm inshore waters around Ponce Inlet and Port Orange, soaking in those golden hour views that'll have you reaching for your camera (or just sitting back in awe).

Trip Overview

Hop aboard Captain Falon's 21' Carolina Skiff for a chill ride through some of the prettiest waterways in Central Florida. This isn't about catching fish or high-speed thrills - it's all about kicking back and watching Mother Nature put on a show. The boat's got room for up to four guests, so bring your favorite people along. And here's a pro tip: pack a cooler with your drinks of choice and some snacks. Captain Falon's got you covered with ice and a cooler on board, so your beverages will stay frosty while you cruise.

What to Expect on the Water

As you push off from the dock, you'll feel the day's stress melt away. The skiff glides smoothly through the inshore waters, giving you a front-row seat to the coastal scenery. Keep your eyes peeled for dolphins playing in the wake or pelicans diving for their dinner. As the sun starts to dip, the sky turns into a canvas of oranges, pinks, and purples. It's the kind of view that makes you want to put your phone down and just soak it all in. Captain Falon knows all the best spots to catch the light just right, so you're in for some seriously Instagram-worthy moments.

Why Folks Keep Coming Back

There's something special about being on the water as day turns to night. It's peaceful, sure, but it's also a bit magical. Regulars on this trip say it's their go-to for celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, or just because it's Tuesday and they need a break. The casual vibe means you can dress comfortably and really relax. No need to worry about seasickness either - these inshore waters are typically calm, making it a smooth ride for everyone.

Local Wildlife Spotting

While this isn't a dedicated wildlife tour, you're bound to see some of New Smyrna's local critters. Bottlenose dolphins are frequent visitors, often curious about boats and happy to show off with a few jumps. Manatees might make an appearance too, especially in the warmer months. They're like the gentle giants of these waters, and spotting one is always a treat. Bird watchers, get ready - you might see ospreys diving for fish, herons wading in the shallows, or even a bald eagle if you're lucky. Captain Falon knows these waters like the back of his hand and can point out the local hotspots for wildlife.
