Why Choose a Booze Cruise in South Beach?
Bring your own drinks, bring your crew, and let the captain handle the rest. A booze cruise in Miami is the ultimate way to enjoy cold drinks on warm water with zero responsibility. In South Beach, you'll experience the glamorous coastline where South Beach meets the Atlantic Ocean, departing from the heart of Miami's most famous beach neighborhood.
Step aboard just steps from Ocean Drive and cruise past the iconic South Beach skyline. Head through Government Cut to the open ocean or cruise the bay side past Fisher Island and Star Island.

Your Guide to South Beach
Where the world comes to party on the water
About the Area
South Beach — the southern tip of Miami Beach — is one of the most famous neighborhoods on earth. Its Art Deco architecture, celebrity-studded nightlife, and pristine beach create an energy that extends onto the water. A yacht charter from South Beach is as much about the scene as the sailing.
On the Water
The marina sits at the southern tip of the barrier island, surrounded by luxury hotels, Fisher Island ferries, and cruise ships navigating Government Cut. The view from the water includes Ocean Drive, the South Beach skyline, and the open Atlantic.
Protected on the bay side with direct ocean access through Government Cut. Light Atlantic swells on the ocean side. The channel is well-marked and heavily trafficked — your captain handles all navigation.
Fisher Island is visible from the dock. Star Island is 10 minutes. The ocean is 10 minutes via Government Cut. Haulover Sandbar is 20-25 minutes north along the coast.
Getting There
South Beach is reached via the MacArthur Causeway from downtown Miami. Parking at marinas is limited and can be expensive ($20-$30). Rideshare is recommended. Valet parking may be available at marina-adjacent hotels.

What is the best time of year for a boat charter in South Beach?
Year-round. Winter season (Dec-Mar) offers the best weather and the most vibrant South Beach scene.
What is included in a booze cruise?
Captain, fuel, and crew are included. We do not provide alcohol — guests bring their own. Coolers and ice chests are available on most vessels. All guests consuming alcohol must be 21 or older per Florida law. BYOB is our policy — bring whatever beverages you want (all guests consuming alcohol must be 21+). Your captain takes you to the best spots for swimming and socializing, often the Haulover Sandbar where food boats come to you. Bluetooth speakers, coolers, and a great attitude are standard on every vessel. The captain can limit alcohol service if safety becomes a concern.
How long should I book a booze cruise for?
Most booze cruises book 4-6 hours — long enough to cruise to a sandbar, anchor, swim, and enjoy the full day without rushing. Bring a cooler full of your favorite drinks and plenty of ice.

This keeps your costs down and lets you enjoy exactly what you want. All guests consuming alcohol must be 21 years of age or older per Florida law.
Can the captain stop us from drinking?
Yes. The captain has final authority on all safety matters aboard the vessel. If intoxication-related behavior poses a safety risk, the captain may limit alcohol consumption or terminate the charter early and return to the marina. No refund is issued in this case. Safety is always the top priority.
What should I bring on a booze cruise?
Bring a cooler with your favorite drinks and plenty of ice, snacks or food (or arrange catering through us), sunscreen, towels, and a swimsuit. A waterproof phone case is a great idea. Glass containers are prohibited on sport boats (26'-37') for safety — use cans or plastic bottles instead.
