Florida Yacht Charter Guide

Florida yacht charters have a spectacular array of unique destinations for both sailing yachts and motor yachts, mega yachts and crewed boats; from Miami, Hollywood and Fort Lauderdale to the scattered islands of the Florida Keys and the Bahamas where fishing and snorkelling spots are myriad.

Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, there are also 30,000 lakes within the state and both locals and businesses have a strong attachment to hobbies involving the water: Jet skis, water skis and kite surfers are familiar sights along the beaches while Scuba diving schools use the gentle Gulf Stream currents to teach beginners drift diving. Florida yacht charterer itineraries can follow the inter-coastal highway and select from numerous seaside towns, great secluded anchorages, excellent marina facilities and pristine beaches that stretch for miles.

To the northeast Jacksonville and Daytona Beach are both popular areas for fishing and whale watching, with the latter also home to the Daytona 500 NASCAR race with free concerts throughout the summer.

Miami is a desirable cosmopolitan destination where guests can spend hours in luxury boutiques, galleries and museums, savouring first-class fine dining or unwinding on the soft sandy beaches that stretch up the coast past Hollywood. Find your own secluded fishing and sunbathing spot among the Florida Keys, which boast a wide variety of fish in crystal clear water.

Dolphins are often observed within the warm waters around St. Petersburg, which offers quiet cruising in protected areas and at night the city has a thriving nightlife with restaurants, bars and live music. Sunsets over the ocean in Florida are often a powerful event that attracts many people to the shoreline.

The Florida Yachting Season:

Florida is ideal for yacht charters year round, however from late July to early October the east coast of America and the Bahamas can be prone to hurricanes and therefore late spring/early summer or the winter holidays prove popular times to visit. As one of the largest yacht charter grounds, there is a massive assortment of yacht charters available in Florida, including motor yachts, sailing yachts, crewed yachts, luxury catamarans and of course superyacht charters. Find a luxury charter to suit you and your group and contact CharterWorld.

The Cost to Charter a Yacht in Florida:

The price of a yacht charter in Florida varies from $24,500 USD per week plus expenses to more than $1,000,000 USD per week for a mega yacht, depending upon the size of yacht chosen and it’s on board facilities. Expenses such as fuel, food and drinks are paid in advance as an Advanced Provisioning Allowance (APA) which usually comes to 30% of the charter price depending on how much is spent. All-inclusive yacht charters are also available and cost between $ 20,000 USD and $ 50,000 USD per week. You can browse the latest Florida yacht charter special offers here , see a price list for American yachts here , or contact the expert brokers at CharterWorld directly for more information.

Florida yacht charters are not only in a beautiful and diverse yacht charter location but are also the door to a wonderland of cruising pleasure - the Florida Keys and the Bahamas .

The state of Florida is synonymous with water - it has two coastal borders in the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico and is home to some 30,000 lakes. Florida yacht charterers can follow the intercoastal highway; with it's myriad of secluded cove beaches, seaside towns, great anchorages and excellent marina facilities, for miles and miles.

10 of the Best Florida Yacht Charter Destinations

When the Caribbean and Bahamas are so close Florida can be overlooked as a luxury yacht charter destination, yet the region is home to many exemplary fishing grounds while turtles, dolphins and manatees swim close to the pristine beaches.

Fort Lauderdale and Miami have both established themselves among the yachting community and those in the know don't need to stray far from the mainland for a tropical paradise or high-end shopping opportunities. Read on to discover 10 fantastic locations to visit within the Florida charter grounds that are easy to incorporate into a charter itinerary designed for everyone in your group.

1. Fort Lauderdale

Incredible beaches, impressive art galleries and the top-rated marina and yachting club draw luxury yacht charter groups year after year to Fort Lauderdale. Located directly west of the Bahamas, the airport also provides quick and efficient connections to international flights. Visitors can easily fill a day indulging in high-end shopping, savouring the high quality cuisine or sitting out in the sunshine and fishing in the bay.

If you visit in late October/early November, head to the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show to see the industry's latest innovations and stunning superyachts.

The silky coast along South Beach is the place to be for sunbathing and people-watching, playing horse polo, jetting along on your motorised water toys or partying the night away.

The coastal clubs and bars cater to all tastes, from upbeat and noisy to laid back and sophisticated, with romantic art deco architecture along the streets. Holidaymakers should stop by at the famous Nikki Beach Club to experience for themselves the food, drinks and atmosphere that gives this place such a stellar reputation.

3. Key West

Among the Florida Keys, Key West has an abundance of islands to explore and the shallow water around the beaches and archipelagos is perfect for younger children to practise their snorkelling and kayaking. A visit on land is a must to see the Earnest Hemingway Home and Museum, the Audubon House & Tropical Gardens and the winter home of President Harry S. Truman, set within the picturesque and verdant town.

4. Key Largo

Key Largo is excellent for Scuba divers for all ability levels with gentle drift diving in the Gulf Stream for beginners, and wreck dives and sites such as Christ of the Abyss for the more experienced. Snorkelers also have the opportunity to see and swim with sea turtles, manatees and whales at such locations as the Key Largo Undersee Park.

5. Ten Thousand Islands

Only Marco Island is inhabited amongst the Ten Thousand Islands at the south-western tip of Florida, leaving an abundance of untouched verdant isles to discover by paddleboard or kayak. Snorkel with dolphins and manatee within this national wildlife refuge, then use the fine grain beaches to rest and recuperate before a romantic sunset meal at your secluded retreat.

6. Clearwater

The powder-soft white sand beach of Clearwater might be where you want to spend your whole holiday, but the area has a myriad more sights and activities to explore: Swim with dolphins, windsurf or learn how to jet ski in the crystal clear waters, then join the parties in the local bars or host your own aboard your superyacht.

Fishing is particularly good in the Gulf Stream off the coast, and charter guests can take an afternoon to laze in the sunshine while catching lunch.

7. Sarasota

The gentle waves and shallow water at Lido Key Beach make this stretch of coast a hit with young families, while those looking for more privacy for a romantic candlelit meal have Passage Key and Egmont Key State Park. Snorkel, Scuba dive and kayak through mangroves and watch schools of fish swimming beneath your group.

As a town with a burgeoning artists' community, a visit to Sarasota will be filled with crafts and opportunities to find statement pieces for your home and that memorable souvenir of your trip.

8. Sanibel Island

Nature lovers will feel reinvigorated on Sanibel Island, where the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge covers half of the land and children will be enthralled by the 250 different kinds of shells washed ashore at Sanibel Beach.

Shop at the scenic Periwinkle Place before returning to the coast to watch a captivating sunset, then party the night away on you sundeck and enjoy a cocktail under the stars.

9. Captiva Island

North of Sanibel Island, the western beaches continue and visitors can stroll along the sands for miles, snorkel with fish and other friendly sea creatures or zip through the water with the Seabobs and jet skis from the water toys collection on board. 

There is little to do but relax and play games with family and friends - a perfect escape for quality time together after visiting towns bursting with land-based attractions.

As the name suggests, this town takes its architectural inspiration from Italy and caters to the luxury lifestyle with high-end shops, golf courses and miles of white sand beach where the group can play games or take a stroll along the pier.

Fishing and dolphin-spotting are common pastimes, and attractions such as The Revs Institute for classic cars ensure that guests have something to do off their luxury yacht even on rainy days or during periods of intense heat.

Yacht Charter Florida

Florida’s “sunshine state” provides an alternative cruising ground for those looking for a cosmopolitan charter.

Famed for its year-round balmy temperatures, there is much more to the “Sunshine State” of Florida than Mickey and Minnie. The stunning coastline boasts long stretches of sandy beaches, world-class golf courses, and elegant palm-lined boulevards that are home to an array of restaurants and bars. The large peninsula is a great place to berth your yacht and step ashore to explore the chic cities of Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Palm Beach before cruising to the Florida Keys for a cosmopolitan Florida yacht rental with an island feel.

Exploring Florida’s Coastal Charm

Sunset serenades and seaside sophistication in key west.

From gazing at epic sunsets in laid-back Key West to relaxing on Miami’s uber-cool South Beach to riding an airboat through the wild Everglades, the “Sunshine State,” Florida offers many attractions both aboard and ashore for anyone looking for cosmopolitan Florida yacht charters.

Navigating the Jewels of the Florida Keys

Well known in yachting circles for the chain of 42 islands known as the Florida Keys, the coastline is famous for its long sandy beaches, world-class golf courses, and the cosmopolitan cities of Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Palm Beach. The latter provides an impressive array of galleries, entertainment, and nightlife. At the same time, the Florida Keys are a haven for sailing, diving, and sun-worshippers with their balmy waters and warm breezes.

Setting Sail for Captiva and Sanibel’s Tranquil Shores

As you navigate through these pristine waters, the expertise of charter experts ensures a seamless journey, allowing you to fully immerse in the dream of chartering through paradise.

Discovering New Horizons with Extended Yacht Journeys

Extend your private yacht rental by heading back up the Florida Keys, discovering new anchorages, and revisiting old favorites. For those looking to venture further, the sailing adventures can continue towards the pristine waters of Naples, or even set course for the rugged coastlines of New England, exploring a whole new world of island paradises and family memories in North American waters.
