There are few better ways to enjoy the Daytona Beach area’s ample waterway-recreation opportunities — including dozens of miles of coastal Atlantic waters and lengthy stretches of the Intracoastal Waterway — than to get out on, over and into the waters in a boat. And whether you’re looking to reel in some trophies on a fishing charter, harness the powers of the winds in a chartered sailboat or simply grab a delicious meal, Port Orange’s Adventure Yacht Harbor offers a range of options. 

In addition to providing services for boat owners — including over 135 boat slips in a protected harbor and high-grade, non-ethanol gasoline — this marina located just 100 yards off the Intracoastal Waterway is also home to a collection of charter companies and a seafood restaurant. Head three miles north of the Ponce de Leon Inlet to Adventure Yacht Harbor for:
