Beats On A Boat 2025

A sunset party cruise on the Duc D'Orleans II in Sarnia

The setting:

Beats On A Boat 2025 brought an unforgettable summer party cruise to the waters of Sarnia, Ontario aboard the iconic Duc D'Orleans II. The multi-level vessel set the stage for an evening of music, dancing, and waterfront views as guests boarded for a unique floating party experience.

Events like this combine the energy of a nightclub with the atmosphere of a scenic cruise. As the boat departed the dock and moved along the St. Clair River, guests were treated to sunset views, fresh air, and a soundtrack designed to keep the energy high throughout the night.

The experience:

The event was organized by DJ Phatfingers and featured the lineup of Zilla The DJ and Drew Hopes delivering a high-energy party soundtrack throughout the cruise. Together, we contributed a mix of dancefloor-ready selections to keep the party moving as the boat cruised through the evening.

From the moment guests stepped aboard, the atmosphere was electric. Music carried across the decks as the crowd settled in, building momentum as the cruise progressed and the dancefloor filled.

Party cruises like this create a unique environment where music, scenery, and crowd energy combine into a one-of-a-kind event experience.

This event was captured in a short behind-the-scenes video that documents the drive from Strathroy to Sarnia and highlights from the party cruise aboard the Duc D'Orleans II. Check it out below!
