This could easily be one of the best foodie experiences of your life. Here’s why: it all starts with a review of your culinary preferences, including any dietary restrictions or allergies. From there, a private yacht chef will be selected based on your tastes and expertise. After choosing your chef, you’ll work with a charter specialist to select the yacht that best fits your budget and needs. All that’s left is to pack your bags and board your yacht charter with a chef on the day of your voyage.

Having a fully crewed yacht, complete with a private yacht chef and crew, is one of life’s finest pleasures. Whether you’re vegan, vegetarian, or have specific dietary needs like kosher, Halal, or nut allergies, every meal will be crafted to meet your exact preferences. The finest local ingredients are sourced daily, and if you’re on a term charter, it’s not uncommon for the chef to visit local markets by tender each morning to pick up fresh ingredients for that day’s meals.

If this sounds like the special experience you want but also sounds like it will break the bank, need not fear. Speak with a charter consultant to go over the options and you might just be pleasantly surprised to scratch this one off the bucket list sooner than later.

What you should know…

Charters are available for half-day (4 hours), full-day (8 hours), or multi-day adventures. Your yacht will include a captain, mate, chef, and, if desired, stewardesses to cater to your every need. Provisions for food and drinks will be arranged during the booking process, and we typically add a 20% buffer to cover any unexpected expenses. Any remaining funds are returned to you with a breakdown of expenditures.

All charters begin at Miami Beach Marina, Sea Isles Marina, or Fontainebleau Marina. Popular cruising spots include Star Island, Palm Island, and Hibiscus Island, where you can catch a glimpse of celebrity homes and luxurious Miami Beach real estate. You can then cruise down to Nixon’s Sandbar in Key Biscayne, where you can anchor and swim. For a memorable close, finish the evening by cruising past downtown Miami as the sun sets, and the city’s skyline lights up.
