Athena
Twin 350 Mercurys, hardtop, and the kind of shallow draft that gets you onto the Nixon Sandbar without scraping. The fleet's day-tripper.
A four-vessel fleet from 40 to 78 feet, USCG-licensed captains, and a quiet kind of luxury. Departing daily from Bayside Marketplace.
From a quiet sunset on the bay to a five-day run across the Gulf Stream. Every charter is private, captained, and tailored.
A classic three-hour run from Bayside, around the downtown skyline, past Star Island, and back as the sun drops behind the Miami River. Champagne welcome on board.
A full day out — Key Biscayne for lunch, a stop at Stiltsville for swimming, and back through Government Cut. Provisioning and lunch reservation handled by our concierge.
Anchor at the Nixon Sandbar or Boca Chita with floats, sound system, and full bar service. Our most-requested charter from May through October.
Overnight charters aboard Constellation or Polaris. Cross the Gulf Stream at first light, clear customs in Bimini by lunch. Itineraries built around your group.
Each yacht earns its slip — selected for what she does best, not for what looks good in a brochure.
Twin 350 Mercurys, hardtop, and the kind of shallow draft that gets you onto the Nixon Sandbar without scraping. The fleet's day-tripper.
Cockpit lounging for ten and a hardtop bar that's seen more sunsets than most captains. The flagship of the sunset-cruise lineup.
Three staterooms, full galley, master with ensuite. The natural choice for the Bahamas crossing — fast enough for the Stream, calm enough to overnight.
The flagship. Sky lounge, formal dining, four cabins, dedicated crew of three. Built for the kind of weekend that turns into a story you tell for years.
Every quoted rate includes the six things below. The bar tab and the gratuity are the only things ever added at the end.

"Booked Bellatrix for my sister's bachelorette and Captain Marco read the group within ten minutes — playlist on, floats out at the sandbar, photos at Stiltsville on the way back. Glassy water the whole afternoon."
"Anniversary sunset cruise on Athena. Quiet, just the two of us with Captain James. Champagne, the skyline lighting up, and a ring-box delivery I'd coordinated weeks ahead. Handled like it was effortless."
"Hosted 18 partners on Constellation for a Friday closing celebration. Catering, full bar, dock-to-deck timing within five minutes. We've already booked Polaris for next year's offsite."
Full refund up to 7 days before departure. Inside 7 days, we hold your deposit as credit for any other date in the next 12 months. Weather cancellations (called by the captain) are always fully refundable or rebookable, your choice.
Absolutely. Most groups bring their own catering and a cooler of drinks — we provide the ice and the cooler. We can also coordinate provisioning through our concierge: charcuterie, sushi platters, full chef service. Bar packages start at $24 per guest.
Biscayne Bay is unusually flat — we rarely see chop above two feet inside the bay. For Stiltsville, Key Biscayne, or open-water runs, we recommend Bonine taken an hour before departure. We keep some on board, but your own works best. If you're truly prone to motion sickness, we'll steer the day toward the calmer routes.
Customary, not required. Industry standard is 15–20% of the charter rate, paid directly to the captain at the end of the trip. Cash, Venmo, or added to the final invoice — all fine. If service didn't earn it, don't leave it. We'd rather hear about it.
The captain has final authority on weather. If we call it, you get a full refund or rebook to any open date — no fees, no questions. If you cancel for weather and the captain says we can sail safely, standard cancellation policy applies. We err on the side of caution: 100% safety record since 2017.
All charters depart from Bayside Marketplace Marina, 401 Biscayne Blvd. Bayside parking garage is directly across the street ($15 flat for the day, validate at our slip). Larger yachts (Constellation, Polaris) board from Slip 14; Athena and Bellatrix from Slips 8 and 11. Address details and dock map are sent with your confirmation.
Most weekends book three to four weeks out. Last-minute weekday charters often available — Tuesday and Thursday sunset cruises are the best-kept secret on the bay.
