Cruising is an incredible way to spend a day or evening. While smaller boat tours offer extra excitement, cruising is about kicking back, relaxing, and taking in the sights. Orange Beach has several cruises, from dinner and sunset to dolphin and party boat charters (perfect for bachelorette parties!).
