The popular ‘Starry Sea Busan River Dinner Cruise’ officially began its 2025 season on May 9 and will operate every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday through December.

The night cruise offers guests the chance to dine aboard a luxury yacht while viewing iconic Busan landmarks such as Gwangan Bridge and Marine City.

The cruise includes three time-specific programs: River Dinner (afternoon), Sunset Dinner, and Moonlight Dinner (night), with meals featuring sandwiches from Busan Mark Bakery and drinks from local coffee brands.

The ‘Moonlight Dinner’ on Fridays features live busking performances and fireworks beneath Gwangan Bridge.

Departing from Suyeong’s APEC Naru Park, the route passes major cityscapes including Suyeong Bridge and Gwajeong Bridge. Additional services include luggage storage, sailor experience programs, Polaroid photo souvenirs, and bike tours of Naru Park.

Ticket prices vary by season, day, and time slot, ranging from 35,000 to 49,000 KRW. A special 10,000 KRW discount is being offered in May to celebrate the launch.

Reservations and full details are available on the city’s official night tour channel (@starry_night_busan.kr).
