Want to charter a luxury yacht but don't know where to start? We've got you covered. There are a few areas to choose for your sailing experience: Miami Beach, Downtown Miami, Key Biscayne, Haulover Sandbar, and Coconut Grove.

The type of rentals available can vary from location to location, but you can expect anything from catamarans , sailboats , party boats and, of course, motor yacht charters . Use our advanced filters to find the vessel that best fits your style and expectations.

Miami Beach

For a taste of the lifestyle of the rich and famous, combined with early-20th-century Art Deco architecture, and effervescent nightlife, this iconic island city connected by bridges to the mainland is your go-to place. Miami Beach marina includes up to 400 berths and state-of-the-art amenities, from a heated swimming pool and laundry facilities to both casual and fine dining locations. The marina's close proximity to Miami's famous beaches make this location a must-do for any out-of-town visitor looking for a great time. If you decide to rent from Miami Beach, we recommend spending some time taking advantage of the dining and leisure in the area before or after your yacht rental. You won't regret it.

Downtown Miami

The Downtown Miami Marina is much smaller with only 130 slips, but don't let that stop you from checking out this location. This marina offers convenient access to all of the well-known yachting destinations around Miami and South Florida, including mainland Miami, Miami Beach, Virginia Key, Key Biscayne, and the Florida Keys. If you want to be in the center of everything, this is a great choice. If you plan to charter a luxury yacht here, you won't want to miss a sunset cruise. There's nothing quite like the evening views of the cityscape while relaxing at sea on a private cruise, with great company.

Coconut Grove

The southernmost location available for Miami boat rentals is Coconut Grove, the ideal spot for leisure and relaxation. Here, you'll have convenient access to the hustle and bustle of the downtown area and Miami Beach to the north and the island lifestyle of the Florida Keys to the south. If you want the home base of your boat rental in Miami to be more laid back and off-the-beaten-path, Coconut Grove is the location for you. If you have time, sail south to the Florida Keys and snorkel at the nearby coral reefs for a taste of paradise.

Weather in South Florida

Of course, you should keep in mind the weather when planning your experience on the water. Miami is the ideal location for a yacht charter while on vacation because of the incomparable weather. With winters ranging in the 70°s and summers in the 90°s, there's no wrong time to visit. But while the climate is typically mild and blissful, pay attention to the weather forecast leading up to your trip. If you're traveling to South Florida in the cooler months of the year, be sure to pack some layers to wear while on your sailing trip, especially if you plan to go sailing in the evening. If you're traveling during the summer months, remember to take extra precautions when it comes to sun care, and keep in mind the high chance of showers.

When planning to rent a boat in Miami, you should also pay attention to the wind patterns, which can vary from light and breezy in the summer to slightly stronger throughout the rest of the year. Dress accordingly if you plan to travel during those months. The wind shouldn't have much of an affect on your time on the water as long as you prepare yourself for what to expect while out on your charter.

Day Charter Rentals

What better way to spend the day in Miami or Fort Lauderdale than aboard one of our clean, modern yachts with an experienced skipper? Boatmiami.com offers family-friendly day and half-day excursions from a variety of marinas around the city.

Sport Yachts

Party catamarans.

Miami and its surrounding waters are among the most beautiful in the world and the city itself is best seen from the water. The back-drop of Miami’s skyscrapers and the cruise-ship port are amazing, especially from the deck of your private yacht or sailboat.

Experience unique destinations around Miami or Fort Lauderdale such as Biscayne Bay, the upper Keys, the Nixon House on Key Biscayne and its famous sandbar where you can safely swim off the boat and have a picnic lunch or dinner aboard. See the famous houses on stilts in Stiltsville that date back to the 1930’s and sail by the famous old Viscaya mansion in Coconut Grove.

Cruise past Star Island and Fisher Island where many of America’s TV, motion picture, music stars, and sports celebrities’ own houses. The Flagler monument, Miami Beach, and the Intra-Coastal waterway are also on our favorite-places list. Al Capone’s Miami residence on Palm Island and many others.

If you’d rather eat ashore, there are many restaurants along the Miami River that are popular with the locals such as Kiki on the River, Garcia’s and Seaspice.

HERE ARE SOME DO'S AND DON'TS

• Non-Commercially licensed private yachts or sailboats cannot take more than 13 guests on board at one time. Keep the size of your group down or choose from one of our larger commercially licensed sailing catamarans that can take up to 50+ guests.
• You can bring your own provisions, or we can supply nutritious picnic style light lunches or dinners and beverages at a very reasonable cost.
• On the larger vessels, we can provide a private chef who can prepare special gourmet lunches or dinners for your special event.

• We can arrange for a wide variety of watersports equipment and water-toys, i.e. snorkeling equipment, jet-skis, etc.

Our client’s

I recently booked a yacht charter in Miami with Myke for Father’s Day. I am from Colorado which made the process quite difficult until, thankfully, we were in contact with Myke. Myke made the yacht rental process seamless! His communication is almost immediate. Both Myke and Luis are very professional. Myke took care of everything for our yacht rental and answered all our questions. The crew on the yacht was AMAZING! My family had the time of their lives. Anytime we are back in Miami looking to rent a yacht, Myke will be without a doubt who we book with.

This was my first time renting a boat in Miami and I’m sooo happy I found Myke to work with. I’ve heard so many terrible stories about yacht rental companies in Miami, especially after giving them a deposit for the yacht. I did a lot of research, and eventually found Myke. He was extremely helpful in every single aspect of my yacht charter (even getting me the dimensions of a table on the boat for a tablecloth I wanted to bring on), always responsive, and just very nice!!!! I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for a yacht rental in Miami.

This company is phenomenal and made the process of booking a luxury yacht charter so easy. Vanessa helped me plan my 40 th  birthday celebration. It was a truly unforgettable experience.  I booked a 150’ yacht in The Bahamas. During my trip, we explored the Exumas. Each day was better than the day before!  My favorite part of the trip was swimming with the nurse sharks at Compass Cay. The captain and crew were also incredible. They were extremely professional and friendly. I never had a chance to even ask for anything, they were on top of everything!  I recommend using this company for your next yacht charter.

Recent reviews in miami.

This was a great way to spend my birthday. Chris and Lester were so professional and accommodating. And the boat/yacht actually appears bigger and better than the photos!My only complaint is that we should’ve did 4 hours instead of 3. Book this boat and get ready to have the best boat day!

Thank you to Melanny for helping us all the way through with renting the boat! There was always great communication from her and Captain Oswaldo as well! Thank you to Boat Life Miami for such a wonderful experience! Captain Oswaldo is such a phenomenal captain! Very knowledgeable and kind. We sailed right on time! Boat was in perfect conditions! Loved the fact that it has a very spacious bathroom WITH AC to change & shower as well! If you are looking to see Miami from a different view and escape for a bit, I totally recommend you book with Boat Life Miami! The view of the skyline of downtown Miami! And the sunset! Just breathtaking! We will definitely be back for another charter! THANI YOU

Edwin was the best captain. Nikole went all out with service with our food and drinks. This has to be the friendliest crew ever. They were on top of everything and the communication throughout the whole trip was great. We were laughing with Nikole and Edwin like we were had an extra two friends on board with us. We really felt like we were in a second home to us with how welcome we all felt. We can’t wait to be back.

Celebrate your Yacht Party up to 34PAX, Everything Included, Great Location

I booked this boat for my sister’s bachelorette party (balling on a budget). It was seriously perfect! If you’re looking for a way to get out on the water and catch some rays, this was a great way to do it. We loved that they provided the water mat to hang out on and they were always happy to throw us a drink! I would definitely recommend

This trip was amazing! I booked Daniel as my captain last second and they accomdated me for a sunset ride. Daniel took me all through the skyline and when I say the vibes were 10/10 I mean it. This is an absolute MUST for ANYBODY visiting. Plus the captain fees and everything was all one cost so it was super clean and straight forward. Daniel shared a few snacks with me and we talked it up for a couple hours - whether you’re solo or with friends - this is an absolute must.

"Had an absolutely amazing time on this boat trip in Miami! The views of the city skyline were breathtaking, and the captain was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. The boat itself was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, making for a relaxing and enjoyable experience. We cruised through the beautiful waters, saw dolphins, and stopped at a secluded spot to swim. It was the perfect combination of adventure and relaxation. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a fun and unforgettable day on the water. Definitely a 5-star experience!"

The best time to visit Miami is during one of the big events in Miami like Art Basel, Ultra, Art Deco Weekend, Jazz Festivals, and more. You can go for the event and feel the excitement of the crowds, rent a boat and enjoy the Miami lifestyle.

The water temperature in Miami is always in the 70s, with the low being around 71°F and the high (typically in July) around 79°F.

Boat and yacht rentals are a great idea for hosting a bachelorette party while in Miami. Spending the day on the water celebrating the bride-to-be guarantees it will be a party she will never forget. Get your favorite ladies together and organize a final “sail before the veil” party with a private yacht or boat charter for a bachelorette. Many Captains offer special packages for bachelorette parties, so be sure to mention the occasion when booking. Check out our Bachelorette Boat Party Guide for everything you need to know about throwing a bachelorette boat party in Miami!

Most boats will have a sound system with either an AUX connection or Bluetooth connection which will allow you to play your own music. It is always best to check with the captain on the specifics prior to booking.

Many boat rentals and charters include the use of floating toys like lily pads, inflatable unicorns, and other items that are perfect for a swimming stop to relax in the water. If you’re hoping to have a float day in addition to your boat day, check the boat listing’s description and ask the boat captain or owner if they have floating toys that are included before confirming your booking.

Fun Ideas For Your Day of Yachting in Miami:

Miami is the perfect Yacht Rental Destination! Here are a few activities that you might want to consider adding to your itinerary:

Miami yacht rentals and yacht charters to Miami Marine Stadium

Home of the world-famous Ultra Music Festival, Miami Marine Stadium is one of the most popular anchoring locations for Miami yacht rentals. The turquoise waters make swimming more fun, the scenery of the stadium is breathtaking, and it draws dozens, if not hundreds, of yacht rentals in Miami each and every day of the week. 

Miami yacht charters to Haulover Sandbar

The Haulover Sandbar is a very popular yacht charter destination because the sand rises above water during low tide and is just below the surface at high tide, meaning you can anchor the yacht and walk around. The beautiful sand provides an oasis for yachters to enjoy right in the middle of the bay in North Miami Beach. Only accessible by boat, you can rent a yacht from Anchor in Miami, FL. It is one of the largest sandbars you'll ever visit and there is even a food vendor that makes their rounds.  It's a top 10 yachting destination in the USA.

Yacht rentals and yacht charters to Nixon Sandbar

Another popular yacht charter destination in Miami is Nixon Sandbar. Named for the nearby Nixon Beach, it's a very busy and very popular sandbar just off Key Biscayne in Biscayne Bay.

Party yachts in Miami

Miami is the place to be for your next bachelor party, bachelorette party, birthday party, or any other celebration on a yacht. We'll provide the private yacht with a Captain and Crew, you'll pop the champagne, dance with friends, swim in the water, and have an unforgettable yacht charter experience. Party yachts in Miami with Anchor are the ONLY way to celebrate.

Or try one of these ideas:

• Head South towards the Florida Keys or explore the coral reefs east of Key Biscayne. Add snorkeling gear to the mix if you want to get up and close to some local marine life.
• Head to one of the other many sandbars and hang with other yachters for a fun, party atmosphere. 
• Book a multi-day charter overnight trip to Nassau or the Bahamas.

Inside the shocking Sicily yacht tragedy that left 7 people dead

There was a violent storm, but even then, luxury yachts are built to weather such events. so why did this boat sink off the coast of sicily, leaving seven people dead, by natalie finn | e news • published august 24, 2024 • updated on august 24, 2024 at 10:34 am.

Originally appeared on E! Online

Nobody was trying to reach the lowest depths of the ocean or otherwise test the boundaries of human endurance .

But what was supposed to be a routine pleasure cruise aboard a superyacht turned deadly all the same on the morning of Aug. 19 when the 184-foot Bayesian got caught in a storm and sank off the coast of Sicily .

"I can't remember the last time I read about a vessel going down quickly like that," Stephen Richter of SAR Marine Consulting told NBC News . "You know, completely capsizing and going down that quickly, a vessel of that nature, a yacht of that size."

The Hurricane season is on. Our meteorologists are ready. Sign up for the NBC 6 Weather newsletter to get the latest forecast in your inbox.

Of the 22 people onboard, including crew, seven people died. The last of the bodies was recovered Aug. 23, an expectedly sad coda to what had already been a tragic week as the search for answers as to how this happened got underway.

And to be sure, every minute of the Bayesian's ill-fated outing is being fiercely scrutinized, starting with the general seaworthiness of the vessel itself.

Because, frankly, this was a freak occurrence.

"Boats of this size, they’re taking passengers on an excursion or a holiday," Richter explained. "They are not going to put them in situations where it may be dangerous or it may be uncomfortable, so this storm that popped up was obviously an anomaly. These vessels that carry passengers, they’re typically very well-maintained, very well-appointed."

But in this case, a $40 million yacht sank, seven people are dead—including a billionaire tech mogul and his 18-year-old daughter—and morbid fascination doesn't need a second wind.

Here is how the story of the Sicily yacht tragedy has unfolded so far:

What happened to the yacht that sank off the coast of Sicily?

The Bayesian had set off from the Sicilian port of Milazzo on Aug. 14 at capacity with 12 guests and 10 crewmembers aboard.

The aluminum-hulled vessel was built in 2008 by Italian shipbuilder Perini Navi and registered in the U.K. Cruise sites listed it as available for charter at $215,000 per week, per the Associated Press.

On the morning of Aug. 19, the superyacht was anchored off the coast of Porticello, a small fishing village in the Sicilian province of Palermo (also the name of Sicily's capital city), when a violent storm hit.

The vessel "suddenly sank" at around 5 a.m. local time, seemingly due to "the terrible weather conditions," the City Council of Bagheria announced shortly afterward, per NBC News .

At the time, only one person was confirmed dead—the ship's chef—but six others were said to be missing. The 15 survivors—who managed to make it onto an inflatable life boat, according to emergency officials—were rescued that morning by the crew of another yacht that had been nearby when the storm hit.

"Fifteen people inside," Karsten Borner, the Dutch captain of the ship that was able to help (the Sir Robert Baden Powell), told reporters afterward, per Reuters. "Four people were injured, three heavily injured, and we brought them to our ship. Then we communicated with the coast guard, and after some time, the coast guard came and later picked up injured people."

When the storm hit, his boat ran into "a strong hurricane gust," Borner said, "and we had to start the engine to keep the ship in an angled position."

They "managed to keep the ship in position," he continued, but once the storm died down, they realized the other boat that had been behind them—the Bayesian—was gone.

The wreck ended up settling 165 feet below the surface, according to Italy's national fire department.

Fire officials said that divers, a motorboat and a helicopter were deployed to search for the missing.

Meanwhile, footage was captured of the ship capsizing on closed-circuit TV about a half-mile away from where it was anchored.

In the video obtained by NBC News, the illuminated 250-foot aluminum mast of the ship appears to list severely to one side before disappearing completely. Survivors recalled having just a few minutes to literally abandon ship.

Who were the seven people who died when the yacht Bayesian sank?

The tragedy initially became headline news because billionaire tech mogul Mike Lynch—"Britain's Bill Gates," some U.K. media called him—was among the missing. His body was ultimately recovered Aug. 22 .

"They told me that suddenly they found themselves catapulted into the water without even understanding how they had got there," Dr. Fabio Genco, head of the Palermo Emergency Medical Services, told NBC News Aug. 22. "And that the whole thing seems to have lasted from 3 to 5 minutes."

Genco said he got to Porticello about an hour after the Bayesian capsized.

Survivors "told me that it was all dark, that the yacht hoisted itself up and then went down," he said. "All the objects were falling on them. That’s why I immediately made sure, by asking them questions, if they had any internal injuries."

Why did the yacht sink?

Italian prosecutors are investigating to determine what transpired before the boat went down, according to NBC News.

Meanwhile, the CEO of shipbuilder Perini's parent company The Italian Sea Group defended the vessel itself as "unsinkable."

Perini boats "are the safest in the most absolute sense," Giovanni Costantino told Sky News Aug. 22 . What happened to the Bayesian "put me in a state of sadness on one side and of disbelief on the other," he continued. "This incident sounds like an unbelievable story, both technically and as a fact."

Costantino said it had to have been human error that led to the boat sinking, declaring, "Mistakes were made."

"Everything that was done reveals a very long summation of errors," he told newspaper Corriere della Sera Aug. 21, in an interview translated from Italian. "The people should not have been in the cabins, the boat should not have been at anchor."

The weather was "all predictable," he continued, adding that the storm "was fully legible in all the weather charts. It couldn't have been ignored."

The yacht's captain, identified as James Cutfield of New Zealand, was taken to Termini Imerese hospital for treatment. From there, he told La Repubblica, per Sky News , that he didn't see the storm coming.

Borner, the captain of the ship that rescued the 15 Bayesian survivors, told NBC News that he noticed the storm come in at 4 a.m. local time, and saw what looked to him like a waterspout, a type of tornado that forms above water.

The International Centre for Waterspout Research posted on X Aug. 19 that it had "confirmed 18 waterspouts today off the coasts of Italy. Some were powerful waterspouts, one of which may have been responsible for the sinking of a large yacht off of Sicily."

Borner said he didn't know why the Bayesian sank so quickly, guessing "it may have something to do with the mast, which was incredibly long." (A tall mast, even with its sails down, means there's more surface area exposed to wind, which can result in tipping.)

Confirming that one person was dead and six unaccounted for immediately following the wreck on Aug. 19, Salvo Cocina of Sicily's civil protection agency told reporters that a waterspout had struck the area overnight.

"They were in the wrong place at the wrong time," he said.

The 59-year-old founder of software firm Autonomy had been on the trip with his wife Angela Bacares and their 18-year-old, Oxford-bound daughter Hannah to celebrate his recent acquittal in the U.S. on fraud and conspiracy charges stemming from the $11.7 billion purchase of his company by Hewlett-Packard in 2011.

In a bizarre turn of events, Lynch's co-defendant at trial, Stephen Chamberlain, the former vice president of finance at Autonomy, died after being taken off life support following a road accident on Aug. 17. Chamberlain's attorney told Reuters Aug. 20 that his friend and client had been out for a run when he was "fatally struck" by a car.

Meanwhile, multiple people who contributed to Lynch's defense were on the cruise with him and his family.

The bodies of Morgan Stanley International Chairman Jonathan Bloomer—who testified on Lynch's behalf—and his wife Judy Bloomer, as well as lawyer Chris Morvillo, a partner at the U.S. firm Clifford Chance, and his wife Neda Morvillo, a jewelry designer, were recovered on Aug. 21 .

In a LinkedIn post thanking the team that successfully defended Lynch, Morvillo wrote, per Sky News , "And, finally, a huge thank you to my patient and incredible wife, Neda Morvillo, and my two strong, brilliant, and beautiful daughters, Sabrina Morvillo and Sophia Morvillo. None of this would have been possible without your love and support. I am so glad to be home. And they all lived happily ever after…"

The first casualty confirmed Aug. 19 was the ship's Canadian-Antiguan chef, later identified as Recaldo Thomas.

"He was a one-of-a-kind special human being," a friend of Thomas told The Independent . "Incredibly talented, contagious smile and laugh, an incredible voice with a deep love of the ocean and the moon. I spoke to him nearly every day. He loved his life his friends and his job."

Hannah's body was the last of the missing six to be found , with divers bringing her remains ashore on Aug. 23.

Lynch and Bacares, who was rescued, also shared a 21-year-old daughter, according to The Times.

While awaiting trial, Lynch—who maintained his innocence throughout the proceedings—had spent 13 months under house arrest in San Francisco. Back home in London afterward, he admitted to The Times in July that he'd been afraid of dying in prison if he'd been found guilty. (He faced a possible 25-year sentence.)

"It's bizarre, but now you have a second life," he reflected. "The question is, what do you want to do with it?"
