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 .

Some call Florida the king of yacht charter vacations. Indeed, Florida does have some of the largest gatherings of charter yachts worldwide. 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.

What an incredible experience! I have so much appreciation for Camila as she made this booking a dream scenario. The quick responses, the detailed answers, and the willingness to help out was unmatched. On the day of our trip, we were met at the marina on time and Oswaldo was an incredible captain. He made us all feel comfortable, even in the pouring rain. Would definitely book again!

Nikole and Edwin were exceptional! They made the trip very comfortable and enjoyable.. they made accommodations for us and also was attentive to any needs we had. I would encourage anyone looking to find a boat for any occasion to go with this one! Me and my entire group of friends were pleased from beginning to end.

I recently had an incredible experience renting a boat with johan. The process was smooth and hassle-free from start to finish. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and ensured we were comfortable before setting off. The boat was in excellent condition, clean, and well-maintained, which made for a perfect day out on the water. this rental service exceeded all my expectations. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a top-notch boating adventure!

100% great time! Communication was easy, rental process was simple, Frank hooked it up with a map of the bay that helped out a lot!, the boat was clean/ran well, sound system was a plus along with the cooler he had on board. Looking forward to working with Frank again in the future.

About Florida

Why is Florida a good sailing destination?

At the crossroads of the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, Florida stands as a beacon for maritime enthusiasts. Its allure isn’t just rooted in its sun-kissed beaches or azure waters, but in the myriad of experiences it offers to sailors, both novice and seasoned. Yachting.Rent, with its profound knowledge of the Sunshine State’s waters, sheds light on why Florida is more than just a sailing destination, but a maritime dream brought to life.

Florida’s geographical diversity is its first calling card. With over 1,300 miles of coastline, the state presents a patchwork of sailing experiences. The Atlantic side tempts with its powerful waves and vibrant ports like Miami and Fort Lauderdale, famous for their cosmopolitan flair. The Gulf side, in contrast, is a serene ballet of gentle waves, clear waters, and pristine beaches, with locations like Naples and Clearwater beckoning sailors to anchor and indulge in tranquillity. The Florida Keys, a chain of coral reef islands, offer a unique sailing journey, where one navigates from one tropical paradise to another, each with its distinct charm. This geographical tapestry means that every sailing trip in Florida can be uniquely tailored, catering to both adrenaline junkies and serenity seekers.

Beyond its natural beauty, Florida’s rich maritime heritage elevates its standing as a prime sailing destination. Towns like St. Augustine, the oldest in the U.S., tell tales of ancient mariners and pirates, adding a historical depth to the journey. Festivals like the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show showcase the state’s deep-rooted maritime culture. But what truly stands out is Florida’s sailing community. Marinas are not just docking points but hubs of camaraderie, where tales of the sea are exchanged, and the spirit of sailing is celebrated. Yachting.Rent has often found that for many sailors, it’s this sense of belonging, of being part of Florida’s vibrant maritime tapestry, that turns a sailing trip into a cherished memory.

Yet, the heart of Florida’s allure as a sailing destination lies in its promise of freedom and discovery. The state’s waters invite sailors to not just navigate their breadth, but to dive deep into their essence. From discovering hidden coves, snorkeling in vibrant coral reefs, to watching a pod of dolphins dance alongside your vessel, Florida’s waters are a treasure trove of experiences. With Yachting.Rent, these experiences are further enriched, as we not only provide vessels for exploration but also insights into Florida’s maritime soul.

In summation, Florida isn’t just a destination; it’s a nautical journey where every wave tells a story, every port is an invitation to adventure, and every sunset is a testament to the day’s discoveries. It’s a realm where the sea beckons and memories are crafted. And in this grand maritime tapestry, Yachting.Rent stands as your trusted guide, turning every sail into a symphony of experiences, making Florida not just a good, but an exceptional sailing destination.

What Choose

Sailing boat or Catamaran, what to sail in Florida

The myriad waterways of Florida offer diverse sailing experiences, and choosing the right vessel is paramount to curating the perfect maritime adventure. At Yachting.Rent, we pride ourselves on understanding these nuances and offering insights to ensure your journey is tailored to your desires. As the debate between sailing boats and catamarans gains momentum among enthusiasts, we delve into the heart of the matter, helping you make an informed choice for your Florida escapade.

Sailing boats, often referred to as monohulls, are the quintessential choice for those who yearn for a traditional sailing experience. Florida’s coastal regions, with their varying wind patterns and tidal rhythms, present the ideal playground for these vessels. They heel under the force of the wind, offering sailors the thrill of cutting through waves and feeling the sea’s unfiltered energy. Their sleek designs and deep keels make them especially adept at navigating Florida’s open waters, where the Atlantic’s majesty or the Gulf’s tranquility can be felt in all its glory. Moreover, monohulls provide a sense of intimacy, where the connection between the sailor, the vessel, and the sea is profound and unobstructed. For those looking to hone their sailing skills or immerse themselves in the raw beauty of Florida’s waters, sailing boats offer an experience that’s both challenging and rewarding.

On the other hand, catamarans, with their dual hulls and expansive deck spaces, are the epitome of stability and comfort. Their design ensures a smooth sailing experience, making them ideal for family trips or group charters. The shallow draft of catamarans allows them to explore areas often untouched by monohulls, including Florida’s intricate network of mangroves, secluded bays, and the shallow waters of the Keys. Their spacious interiors, often equipped with modern amenities, offer a luxurious ambiance that turns a sailing trip into a floating retreat. For those who prioritize comfort, panoramic views, and the ability to anchor closer to shore, catamarans present an unparalleled experience.

However, the ultimate decision between a sailing boat and a catamaran boils down to individual preferences and the nature of the voyage envisaged. At Yachting.Rent, we cater to both visions. Our extensive fleet, ranging from agile monohulls to luxurious catamarans, ensures that every sailor finds their perfect match. Our team further assists in tailoring itineraries, ensuring that the chosen vessel aligns with the destinations and experiences desired. Whether it’s the thrill of harnessing the wind on a monohull or the leisurely pace of a catamaran cruise, we’re committed to turning your Florida sailing dream into a tangible reality.

In conclusion, Florida’s waters beckon with promises of adventures both serene and thrilling. The choice between a sailing boat and a catamaran isn’t just about the vessel but the stories you wish to craft amidst the waves. With Yachting.Rent by your side, every choice becomes a gateway to experiences that resonate, linger, and call you back to Florida’s enchanting shores.

Friendly Crew

Superyacht sinks latest: Mother of crew survivor speaks out; CCTV captures yacht seconds before it sinks

The search for six people missing after a superyacht sank in a tornado off Sicily continues. Listen to a Daily podcast special as you scroll - as our correspondents and guests examine why the disaster happened.

We're pausing our coverage for tonight but here is a recap of what we know:

• Six people are still missing after the sinking of the Bayesian superyacht, with rescue teams searching off the Sicilian coast for survivors;
• The Italian coastguard confirmed that the body found after the yacht sank yesterday is that of chef Recaldo Thomas;
• The coastguard also named more survivors - Leah Randall, Katja Chicken and Leo Eppel;
• An engineer who led the salvage operation for the wrecked cruise ship Costa Concordia said rescue divers have entered a "critical" 24 hours; 
• The captain of Bayesian spoke for the first time, saying: "We didn't see it coming" in reference to the storm that sank the boat.

Images are emerging of emergency crews working near the site where the yacht sank in Porticello.

Search and rescue efforts by sea and air have so far delivered no results and experts have said we are in a "critical" 24 hours.

Bayesian was moored around half-a-mile off the coast of Porticello when it sank at around 5am local time yesterday.

A friend of Recaldo Thomas, the chef who was killed as the yacht sank, has described him as a "calm spirit" who had a "smile that lit up the room".

Gareth Williams, who grew up with Mr Thomas in Antigua, told the BBC : "I can talk for everyone that knew him when I say he was a well-loved, kind human being with a calm spirit.

"He would come over to mine over the weekend and he would sing. He had the deepest, most sultry voice in the world, and a smile that lit up the room.

"He told me just the other day that he needed to work two more seasons to fix up his late parents' house. He loved yachting, but he was tired."

Mr Thomas was also a Canadian citizen. The country's foreign ministry said it was "aware of reports that a Canadian citizen has died" and that consular officials were in contact with local authorities.

Mike Lynch "lost the last 12 years fighting a ridiculous case", his co-founder has told Sky News.

David Tabizel, who founded the software company Autonomy with Mr Lynch - the sale of which became the subject of the US fraud case - said he was a "legend" and that he had a "very soft spot for him".

"I'm just heartbroken for him and his family and I hope there's a miracle about to occur," he said.

Mr Tabizel said Mr Lynch's "resilience" and "importance to British economy cannot be overstated". 

"Now he has passed through this great trauma we were hoping he would lead a new national revolution to help Britain out of its current moribund state," he said.

"If anyone has the resilience to survive this - he does. And I hope he's found an air pocket."

Mr Tabizel added: "He has been one of the most influential, intelligent and most honourable human beings I have ever had the honour of knowing."

Mr Lynch sold Autonomy to US computing giant Hewlett-Packard for $11bn (£8.6bn).

He was accused of conspiracy and attempted fraud over the sale to HP and an intense, multiyear legal battle in the US ensued.

He was acquitted of multiple fraud charges in June after more than a year under house arrest.

CCTV footage showing the yacht moments before it sank has been released.

We reported on separate footage earlier, shot from a villa 200m away from the site of the disaster in Porticello.

The owner of the villa told outlet Giornale Di Sicilia the shots showed the boat sinking in 60 seconds: "You can clearly see what is happening. There was nothing that could be done for the vessel. It disappeared in a very short time."

Experts have said we're in a critical 24 hours in the search for survivors.

Earlier, Nick Sloane, who led the salvage operation for the wrecked cruise ship Costa Concordia, said survivors might be trapped in air pockets, but that time was running out to save them (see post at 12.50pm).

Now Dr Jean-Baptiste Souppez, senior lecturer in mechanical engineering at Aston University, has said the speed at which the vessel sank (a few minutes, according to accounts) and the fact that it remains intact "could favour the formation of small air pockets inside".

While the formation is "highly speculative", he says, there are records of survivors found in such pockets.

"A sign the rescuers may be looking for is a banging noise at regular intervals: this is common practice on submarines, and was one of the signs the search mission for the Titan submarine was looking for after it went missing last year," he says.

"But whether air pockets formed on the Bayesian is simply impossible to predict."

There is a "big question mark" over how the superyacht sunk, the editor-in-chief of BOAT International has told Sky News.

Stewart Campbell said "nothing like this had happened before" in his recollection.

"These boats are built extremely tough. They are built to take on the biggest seas the ocean can throw at them," he said.

"Big volume aluminium boats are very capable. So the fact that a boat like Bayesian can sink in a storm like this is incredibly surprising."

He said even if a ship like this was knocked down "it should be been able to right itself".

"Even if the boat had been dismasted, theoretically the boat should have been even more stable as it would have meant less weight and the keel would then have anchored the boat more firmly in the sea.

"There are lots of questions to be answered.

"At the moment from my point of view and from the people I have spoken to, including captains of similar boats, there is a big question mark over how this happened."

The action of the boat when it was struck by the storm "would have been incredibly violent" and "it should have woken everybody up".

"The crew would have sprung into action and tried to get everyone into life rafts if they thought the boat was in danger," he said.

"We just don't know what situation the boat was in when this storm struck."

The life raft on which survivors are understood to have escaped the sinking yacht has been pictured in the harbour at Porticello in Sicily. 

Earlier, Karsten Borner, the captain of a boat that came to their aide, described how he and his crew found the raft with 15 survivors inside and brought them to his ship until help arrived.

He described the situation as "awful and traumatic" for those involved - you can read his comments in full in our post at 10.55am.

Why did the yacht sink? What is happening with the investigation? Who is missing - and why are conspiracy theories already brewing?

Our correspondent Ashna Hurynag, who is at the scene in Sicily, and Danny Fortson, West Coast correspondent for The Sunday Times, who interviewed missing Mike Lynch only weeks ago, answer these questions on today's episode of the Daily podcast, with host Niall Paterson.

You can listen above - and  tap here  to follow wherever you get your podcasts.

 The mother of one of the survivors has said she is "beyond relieved" her daughter's life was spared.

Heidi Randall, the mother of crew member Leah Randall, told Sky News: "I'm beyond relieved that my daughter's life was spared by the grace of God. 

"It doesn't make it any easier living with the heartache of those who have lost their lives or are missing. 

"My very deepest condolences to the chef's family as they formed a great friendship."

Leah Randall, from South Africa, was photographed leaving the coastguard headquarters yesterday, alongside Katja Chicken, her fellow crew member.

The Italian coastguard has also confirmed the name of another crew member.

Leo Eppel was also working on the yacht, spokesman Vincenzo Zagarola said.
