FAQ

Destinations & Experiences – Common Questions

What are the best destinations for a private boat trip?

Nauty 360 operates in four world-class destinations. Cartagena, Colombia stands out for its turquoise Caribbean waters, with iconic routes to the Rosario Islands, Barú, and Playa Blanca. Cancún offers the stunning Isla Mujeres crossing and MUSA underwater museum. Miami features Biscayne Bay, the Venetian Islands, and the Miami Beach skyline. Casa de Campo (Dominican Republic) includes Saona Island and La Romana's coastline.

When is the best time to visit Cartagena by boat?

The best time for a boat tour in Cartagena is during the dry season: December through April. Sea conditions are calm, visibility is excellent for snorkeling, and the water temperature hovers around 28°C (82°F). June through August is also a popular time, though brief afternoon rains can occur. The Rosario Islands and Barú are most accessible and beautiful during these peak periods.

What can I expect on a Rosario Islands tour from Cartagena?

A Rosario Islands day trip typically departs from Cartagena's marina and takes 45–60 minutes by speedboat or 90 minutes by catamaran. You'll experience crystal-clear Caribbean waters, coral reefs ideal for snorkeling, white-sand beaches, and the option to visit Playa Blanca on Barú Island. Lunch at a beachfront restaurant and a return sunset cruise are popular add-ons that our team can arrange.

Are Isla Mujeres boat trips suitable for families with children?

Absolutely. Isla Mujeres boat trips from Cancún are perfect for families. The crossing is calm (30–45 min), and the island offers shallow snorkeling areas, a sea turtle sanctuary, and family-friendly beaches. We offer boats with shade, seating, and safety rails for children. Our captains are experienced with family groups and can adapt the pace and activities to suit all ages.

What activities can I do on a boat rental with Nauty 360?

Depending on destination and vessel, activities include island hopping, snorkeling and reef exploration, swimming in secluded coves, fishing charters, sunset cruises, birthday and bachelorette party celebrations, corporate team outings, and romantic private experiences. Many boats include or can arrange paddleboards, kayaks, and underwater scooters as optional add-ons.

How long is a typical yacht charter with Nauty 360?

Most charters run 4 hours (half-day) or 8 hours (full day). Sunset cruises are typically 2–3 hours. For multi-day or overnight charters, contact our team for a customized itinerary. Minimum charter duration varies by vessel – most require at least 4 hours. All durations are listed on each boat's detail page when browsing the fleet.
