Motor yachts, catamarans and sport yachts for groups of 6 to 50. USCG-licensed captain included. Biscayne Bay, Star Island, Haulover Sandbar and Key Biscayne. Book direct — no platform fees, reply in 30 minutes.
Most yacht rental platforms in Miami charge 15–25% booking fees on top of the vessel price. Nauty 360 operates directly — you pay the charter rate, nothing more. Every yacht in our Miami fleet comes with a USCG-licensed captain, fuel for the standard route, and safety equipment. No hidden extras at checkout.
Miami's yacht market is oversaturated with listings from aggregator sites where the vessel, captain, and insurance are three separate parties. We own the relationship with the captain and vessel on every booking, which means a single point of contact from quote to boarding.
Our Miami fleet covers 40 ft sport yachts for groups of 6–12, 65 ft motor yachts for groups up to 30, and 90 ft luxury yachts for up to 50 guests. All vessels depart from Bayside Marina (Downtown), Coconut Grove, or Miami Beach Marina depending on your hotel location.
All rates below are for private, captained charters departing Miami. Fuel for routes within Biscayne Bay included. Extended routes (Key Largo, Bahamas) quoted separately.
| Vessel Type | Size | Guests | 4-Hour Rate | Full Day (8 hrs) | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sport Yacht | 40–45 ft | 6–12 | $800–$1,200 | $1,500–$2,200 | Couples, small groups, Biscayne Bay day |
| Motor Yacht | 55–65 ft | 13–25 | $2,500–$4,500 | $4,000–$7,500 | Birthday parties, corporate events |
| Catamaran | 50–55 ft | up to 30 | $2,200–$3,500 | $3,800–$6,000 | Stable platform, large groups, snorkeling |
| Luxury Mega Yacht | 80–90 ft | up to 50 | $6,000–$9,000 | $10,000–$15,000+ | Weddings, high-end corporate, VIP events |
All prices include: USCG-licensed captain, fuel (standard Biscayne Bay route), safety equipment. Gratuity (15–20%) and catering add-ons are separate. Peak season (Dec–Apr) rates apply above.
A 55 ft motor yacht on GetMyBoat or Boatsetter lists at roughly $3,800 for 4 hours. Add the platform fee (18–22%) and that becomes $4,500–$4,640. The same vessel booked direct through Nauty 360 is $3,800 flat. On a single 4-hour charter the saving is $700–$840 — enough to cover open bar for 12 people. On a full-day booking the platform fee savings exceed $1,200.
All routes depart from Downtown Bayside or Miami Beach Marina. Your captain adjusts the route based on sea conditions, group preference, and charter duration.
The default route for 4-hour charters. Calm, protected waters — ideal for groups new to yachting. Skyline views of Downtown, Brickell, and the Port. No open-ocean exposure.
Miami's celebrity island chain, visible from the MacArthur Causeway. Your captain anchors nearby for photos. 15 minutes from Downtown departure.
Miami's most popular anchorage party spot. Fill up on weekends — arrive before noon to get a good position. Shallow water, ideal for swimming off the stern. 35–40 minutes from Bayside.
Stiltsville — 7 wooden structures on stilts in the middle of Biscayne Bay, a national historic landmark. Full-day charters only. Cape Florida Lighthouse visible from deck.
No bridge access — only reachable by boat or helicopter. Your captain cruises past the island for aerial-style views of the most expensive zip code in the US. Add-on for Biscayne Bay route.
Pass under the PortMiami cruise ship lanes at golden hour. Government Cut separates Miami Beach from Fisher Island — wide channel, dramatic sunset views, cruise ships departing. 2-hour minimum.
We reviewed 30 Miami yacht charter bookings across Q1 2026 to identify patterns that platform listings don't disclose. Here is what the data showed:
| Finding | Detail | Impact for Bookers |
|---|---|---|
| Peak day fill rate | Saturday charters book out 2–3 weeks ahead Nov–Mar | Book weekday or book early |
| Platform fee reality | Aggregator fees add $600–$1,400 on a full-day motor yacht | Direct booking saves ~18% |
| Haulover Sandbar timing | Anchorage fills by 12:30 pm on weekends | Depart by 10:00 am for prime spot |
| Hidden fuel surcharge | 23% of platform listings exclude fuel in listed rate | Always ask: is fuel included? |
| Gratuity expectation | 15–20% of charter fee is standard captain tip | Budget $120–$800 extra per trip |
WhatsApp or email. Include the occasion (birthday, corporate, anniversary) if relevant — it helps us match the right vessel size and captain personality.
We send 2–3 vessel options with photos, capacity, and an all-in price. No hidden fees revealed at the end. What you see is what you pay.
Deposit is paid by credit card or bank transfer. This locks your vessel, captain, and time slot. Balance is due 72 hours before departure.
Exact marina gate, slip number, parking instructions, and your captain's name and phone. We send this even when the original contact is different from the person actually boarding.
Arrive 15 minutes early. Your captain handles navigation, anchoring, and safety briefing. Ice and water are on board. Everything else — catering, music, decorations — is arranged in advance if requested.
