If you are interested in gambling but hoping to try something new and adventurous away from a traditional casino, day gambling cruises are an option. Cruise ships accommodate a large number of guests and generally offer the same amenities as standard casinos including table games, video and slot machines and restaurants. These cruises are particularly popular in the southern part of the Unites States.
The Diamond Casino offers two floors of Las Vegas-style gambling and a third floor observation deck. Popular games on the ship include a variety of poker, roulette and baccarat. Hundreds of slot machines and other video machines also are available to play while you cruise. The ship operates around the clock and offers free beer, wine, soda and coffee service to all patrons. Day cruises leave the main dock at noon everyday from Wednesday to Sunday. A restaurant on the ship serves full course meals and lighter fare including sandwiches and salads.
