Your own boat, your own captain, your own route through Biscayne Bay. From $200 an hour, captain and fuel included.
Best Boat Miami runs private, captained boat and yacht charters in Miami Beach. Every trip is for your group only, and the price is per boat, not per person.
Choose a tour, or tell your captain what you want and the day is built around it. Prices below are for the 25 ft Nautic Star. Larger boats cost more per hour.
Cruise past the waterfront estates of Star, Palm and Hibiscus Islands. Your captain knows the story behind each gate and stops for photos with the skyline behind you.
Anchor at a small island in Biscayne Bay where wild raccoons live, then cruise past the celebrity homes on the way back. A stop you will not find on most Miami itineraries.
See the Miami skyline at golden hour from the water. Evening trips depart from 5 pm, so bring champagne, music and your favorite people.
Swim and float in shallow, clear water at Nixon Sandbar or Haulover Sandbar. On longer trips of 4 to 5 hours we can reach Soldier Key, where you can snorkel with turtles, stingrays and tropical fish. Equipment is provided.
Music on the Bluetooth speakers, a cooler on board and a captain who keeps the day easy. The Nautic Star holds 8 guests. For 9 to 13 guests, choose one of the larger boats.
Every boat comes with a licensed captain who speaks English, Spanish and French. Rates cover the whole boat, not each guest. All boats depart from the same dock at 2400 Collins Ave.

Every boat, one dock: 2400 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33140. Whether you book the Nautic Star or the Sunseeker 74 ft, you meet your captain at the same address.
Trips run all year, every day. Summer brings warm water and a chance of afternoon storms, so mornings and sunset are the safest slots.
Private boat rentals start at $200 per hour with a 2-hour minimum, so a 2-hour trip on the 25 ft Nautic Star costs $400. Larger boats cost $250, $400 or $500 per hour, and the 74 ft Sunseeker superyacht starts at $3,000 for 4 hours. Prices are per boat, not per person.
A licensed captain, fuel, water, ice, a cooler, life jackets and Bluetooth speakers are included in the boat rate. There are no fuel surcharges. A floating mat for sandbar stops is available on request.
