Rent a Private Motor Yacht in Miami — 7 Crewed Day Charters

Rent a Private Motor Yacht in Miami — 7 Crewed Day Charters

⚓ A 97 to 222-foot yacht, your own captain and crew, and one guest list — yours — on a privately crewed day across Biscayne Bay, with a swim stop, a long lunch and a golden skyline on the way home.

↓ pick your yacht & your day — the water is yours, the crew is ready

This is not a boat tour. A privately crewed motor yacht charter in Miami hands your group the whole vessel — the captain, the crew, the decks, the jacuzzi and the day. Teak underfoot, a chilled glass in hand, and a skyline that exists only for the people on board. Nothing is shared, nothing is scheduled, and nobody else is aboard. ⚓✨

🗺️ Your Biscayne Bay Day Afloat

Route planning map for a private motor yacht charter day on Biscayne Bay, Miami

Board around 10:00 AM at a Miami Beach marina. Your captain reads the wind and the tide, then builds the day around what your group actually wants — a slow swim at a sandbar, a cruise past the mansions of Star Island, or the long run down to Key Biscayne. With a full day ahead there is room for two or three unhurried stops and a proper lunch at anchor. 🌊

Show details

Morning — depart & first swim stop. A 10:00 AM boarding with a welcome drink, then a short run across Biscayne Bay to a calm anchorage. The crew sets the lines, the toys come out, and the first swim of the day belongs to your group alone.
Midday — lunch at anchor & water fun. Lunch is served on deck while the yacht sits in the shallows near a sandbar. Paddleboards, snorkelling gear, the jacuzzi and the sunpad keep everyone busy until the light starts to soften.
💡 Insider tip: ask your captain to reach the sandbar before noon — by early afternoon on a weekend the prime anchoring spots on Biscayne Bay are gone, and the good ones do not open up again.

These full-day charters suit couples, families and small groups who want a real day out on the water rather than a scheduled tour. Every yacht comes fully crewed, so navigation, anchoring and service are somebody else’s job — yours is the swimming, the lunch and the sunset.

🌊 Did you know?

Learn More About Yacht Rental in Miami

What is included in a full-day private motor yacht charter in Miami?

Most charters include the yacht, a professional captain and crew, fuel for the standard route, life jackets, passenger insurance, soft drinks and water. Jacuzzis, jet skis, Seabobs, paddleboards, floats, snorkelling gear and air conditioning come with the boats listed here; catering, extra water toys and ground transport can be arranged on top. Check each yacht’s live page for exact inclusions.

Do we need sailing experience to rent a crewed yacht in Miami?

No — every yacht here is fully crewed. The captain and crew handle navigation, anchoring, docking and safety for the whole day, so your group only has to decide where to swim next.

How many guests can a 97–116ft motor yacht take on a Miami day charter?

The motor yachts in this article are licensed for up to 13 day guests, with four to seven cabins sleeping between eight and 14 overnight guests. Crew quarters are separate, so the whole guest area stays yours.

Which sandbars and islands can we reach on a full-day charter from Miami?

From a Miami Beach marina a full day comfortably covers a Biscayne Bay sandbar, the mansions of Star Island, Stiltsville and the Cape Florida lighthouse on Key Biscayne, with a run down the bay for a sunset return. Your captain builds the route around the wind and the tide.

How far ahead should we book a private yacht in Miami in high season?

For weekends, holiday weeks and event periods, three to four weeks ahead is sensible; the most requested 97–116ft motor yachts are often gone earlier. Midweek dates open up much closer in.

Is the yacht private for just our group?

Yes — when you charter through YATR the entire yacht is yours, with no other passengers aboard. The captain and crew work only for your group for the whole charter.
