The idea

Built around
your group.

No strangers, no shared charter, no script.

Just your group, a captain who knows how to make the day feel like an event, and a route built around what you actually want. Rooftops and beach clubs come with crowds, dress codes and closing times — a private boat is completely yours, from the moment you cast off to the moment you dock.

Bring the decorations, the sashes, the cake and the playlist. Your captain handles the driving, the anchoring and the timing, and stays out of the way of the fun. The backdrop takes care of itself: celebrity mansions, crystal-clear sandbars and the Miami skyline.

Can we bring alcohol, food and a cake?

Yes — it’s BYOB. Champagne, cocktails and beer are all welcome (we just ask for no red wine on board). We provide water, sodas, ice and cooler space.

Can we decorate the boat and play our own music?

Of course. Bring decorations, sashes and balloons, and connect your phone to the 4-speaker Bluetooth system — the guest of honour controls the playlist.

How much does a party boat cost per person?

Our most popular 3-hour charter is $600 all-inclusive on the Nautic Star. Split between 8 friends that’s about $75 per person — captain, fuel, water, sodas and ice included.

How far ahead should we book?

Weekends in Miami book up fast, especially in season — call at least a week ahead for Saturday and Sunday dates. Weekdays can often be confirmed the same day.

Can the captain help with a surprise?

Yes. Let us know it’s a surprise when you book and your captain will play along — and help you celebrate when the cake comes out.
