Set out from Miami on a private yacht adventure designed for your group of up to 13 guests. This charter stands out for its customizable itinerary, combining swimming stops at sandbars with cruising past downtown’s dazzling skyline and iconic Biscayne Bay sights. Ideal for those seeking a lively day on the water or a relaxed sunset cruise, your experience begins along the Miami River and can be tailored for sightseeing or leisure at the sandbars.

Your journey starts with a scenic cruise down the Miami River, offering a unique vantage point of the city’s waterfront and bustling maritime activity. As you leave the river, the yacht glides into Biscayne Bay, where the impressive outline of downtown Miami rises ahead. Along this stretch, you’ll pass by notable landmarks including the striking Monument Island and the storied Marine Stadium.

The highlight of the trip is anchoring at the famed Nixon Sandbar, a popular gathering spot for locals and visitors alike. Here, you’re free to swim, lounge on a floating mat, or simply soak up the sun surrounded by clear waters and a festive atmosphere. The yacht’s sound system lets you set the mood with your own playlist while towels and cool drinks are at hand.

After your time at the sandbar, the yacht continues along the bay, offering more skyline views and the option for another swim stop depending on your preferences. The cruise returns through Biscayne Bay, wrapping up with a final look at Miami’s skyline as you make your way back to the starting point.

Your booking covers the essentials for a comfortable day on the water: towels, a swimming mat, a Bluetooth sound system for music, and a cooler stocked with ice and water. All docking and fuel fees are included, so you can relax and focus on the experience. The captain’s fee is not included and is paid separately.

This private charter immerses you in the vibrant setting of Biscayne Bay, with its calm waters, iconic sandbars, and views of downtown Miami’s high-rises. The bay is a central playground for boating and social gatherings, making it a classic Miami beach day.
