How a sunset cruise works

Most sunset charters leave the dock an hour or so before sunset. You cruise out past the islands while the light turns gold, pause on the water as the sun goes down behind the city, and return as the skyline lights up. It's a shorter, calmer charter than a sandbar day and is the one most people book for a proposal or anniversary.

Planning a proposal or celebration

Tell us the occasion and we'll plan the details: where the yacht should be when the moment comes, flowers and champagne on board, a photographer hidden on the flybridge, or a private chef for dinner on the water. The crew can keep things discreet.

Timing through the year

Sunset in Miami is earlier in winter and later in summer, so departure times move through the year. We'll suggest the best departure time for your date.

What's included

  • A licensed captain and crew on every charter
  • Exclusive use of the yacht for your group only
  • A route planned around your day, confirmed by the captain
  • A written quote that lists fuel, gratuity and taxes clearly
  • Add-ons arranged before you board

What to bring

  • Swimwear, a towel and a light layer for the ride back
  • Reef-friendly sunscreen in lotion form
  • Sunglasses and a hat
  • ID for anyone planning to drink
  • Soft-soled or bare feet on deck. Most yachts ask for no hard-soled shoes
