Family Yacht Charter in Miami
A private boat day the whole family can do: children welcome, children's life jackets on board, a licensed captain and crew, and calm bay water with a swim stop. From $1,000 for 4 hours.
The Miami day for the whole family
A private charter is the family-friendly way to see Miami from the water. There are no crowds and no shared deck, the route stays on the sheltered water of Biscayne Bay, and the day runs at the pace of the youngest person on board. Children are welcome on every boat and we carry children's life jackets, so you do not need to bring your own.
A licensed captain and crew run every charter, which means the adults are guests too. The captain handles the boat and the stops; you handle the sunscreen.
What a family charter looks like
- Calm water: Biscayne Bay is protected from the open Atlantic by Miami Beach and Key Biscayne, so the ride is smooth.
- A swim stop: Nixon's Sandbar is shallow and clear, the kind of water kids can stand in beside the boat.
- Things to see: The skyline, the mansions of Star Island, the cruise ships at PortMiami and the houses on stilts at Stiltsville on a longer route.
- Shade and a place to rest: The flybridge yachts have shaded seating, and the 48' Isabella, 65' Azimut L'chaim and 90' Deep Blue have a cabin and bathroom below deck.
