What to Bring on a Yacht Charter in Miami
Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, swimwear, a towel, a light layer for the evening, soft-soled or bare-foot friendly shoes, ID, your food and drinks in cans or plastic, and a waterproof phone pouch. On board there is water and ice only. Leave glass, heels and anything that floats away at home.
What should each guest pack?
- Reef-safe sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat.
- Swimwear and a towel.
- A light layer for a sunset or night charter.
- Flat, soft-soled shoes or none: most boats are bare-foot.
- A photo ID, needed for anyone drinking.
- A waterproof pouch for the phone.
What food and drinks should the group bring?
Anything you like, in cans, plastic or boxes rather than glass: snacks and sandwiches, fruit, a cake, beer, seltzer, wine decanted into plastic. Water and ice are on board; coolers usually are too. Catering, a private chef and a bartender can be added; see Miami yacht services.
What should you leave at home?
Glass bottles, heels, red wine on boats with white upholstery, confetti and glitter, and anything that cannot get wet. Drones fly only with the captain’s approval.
From $650 for three hours and $750 for four on a boat under 40 ft, from $850 and $950 on 40 to 54 ft, from $950 for three hours on a 55 to 79 ft luxury yacht and from $1,550 on 80 ft and up, captain, crew and fuel included. The table by size and hours is on Miami yacht rental prices.

Plan what comes on board
Tell the team the group and the occasion, and they confirm what the boat carries and what to add.
What the boat already has
Water and ice are aboard, and most boats have a cooler and a sound system for a phone playlist. Pack for sun and a breeze, not for a galley: food beyond water and ice is what you bring, or a separate line on Miami yacht services.
Three to start with: the Sale Vita (105 ft, up to 13 guests), the Empire (75 ft, up to 13 guests) and the Joker 3 (53 ft, up to 13 guests). Or see them all on Miami yacht rental.
