Your Boat, Your Adventure on the Space Coast
Sometimes you just want the boat to yourself. Our Private Catamaran Charters offer the ultimate way to experience the beautiful waters of Cocoa Beach and Merritt Island. When you book a private charter, you are reserving the entire vessel exclusively for your group, ensuring a completely personalized and intimate experience on the water. You get all the benefits of our premium catamarans—the stability, the shade, the restroom, and the comfortable seating—without having to share the space with anyone else.
Whether you are celebrating a milestone birthday, planning a romantic anniversary, organizing a family outing, or simply wanting to escape the crowds, a private charter gives you the freedom to set the pace. You won't be sharing the deck with strangers, and you won't be locked into a rigid tour schedule. Instead, you'll have direct access to your local captain, who will tailor the trip to your group's preferences. It's like having your own private yacht for the afternoon, complete with an experienced guide who knows the local waters inside and out.
"The Ultimate Celebration Venue"
There's no better place to celebrate life's special moments than on the deck of a private catamaran. From surprise proposals and intimate weddings to milestone birthdays and family reunions, our private charters provide a stunning and unique backdrop for your celebration. Our team is dedicated to helping you create an experience that is as special as the occasion itself. Explore all special occasions we cater to.
Want to spend more time looking for dolphins? We can do that. Prefer to raise the sails and enjoy the quiet thrill of wind-powered cruising? We've got you covered. Looking for a scenic spot to anchor and enjoy the snacks and beverages you brought along? Just say the word. Our catamarans are incredibly stable, spacious, and comfortable, making them the perfect platform for whatever kind of day you have in mind. You can play your own music over our Bluetooth sound system, bring your own food and drinks, and truly make the boat your own.
During Florida's warmer months, many guests enjoy cooling off with a quick swim when conditions allow. Because private charters are fully customizable, we can often incorporate a swim stop into your itinerary. Please note that swim opportunities depend heavily on weather, wind, water conditions, tides, and available time, so we can never guarantee a swim stop or sandbar visit. However, our captains will always do their best to accommodate your requests when it is safe to do so.
Special Events
From bachelorette parties to corporate outings, we provide a premium venue that will impress your guests and create lasting memories.
Total Privacy
Enjoy the undivided attention of your captain and the entire vessel to yourselves. No crowds, no noise, just your group.
We offer both daytime wildlife sails and evening sunset cruises as private charters. The daytime option is fantastic for families with kids who want to spot wildlife and enjoy the sunshine, while the sunset option is perfect for couples and adults looking for a relaxing, romantic evening on the water. For those visiting during the summer months, you can also upgrade to our 3-hour Island Adventure Sail, which includes time to explore hidden islands and search for wildlife in the calm waters of the lagoon.
For larger groups of 7 to 20 guests, we offer custom solutions using a bareboat/demise charter structure. This allows you to accommodate more people while still enjoying the premium catamaran experience. Our fleet includes S/V Endless Summer and S/V Dolphin Breeze. Depending on availability, private groups may have access to one or both vessels to sail in tandem, creating a spectacular "mini-flotilla" for your group. No matter the size of your party, we are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and unforgettable adventure on the water.
Our departure from Cape Crossing Marina provides easy access to the most beautiful waterways of Merritt Island and Cocoa Beach. We'll cruise past scenic landscapes, enjoy the local wildlife, and experience the true joy of sailing in a way that is completely tailored to you. Join us for a private charter and discover why we're the top choice for groups looking for a premium sailing experience on the Space Coast.
