Miami Charters' vacation charter specialists can plan a quick get-away or extended yacht charter vacation to Bimini and all the Bahamas.

BAHAMAS YACHT CHARTERS TO BIMINI ISLANDS AND POINTS OF INTEREST

Bimini is the nearest Bahamian island (two islands) to the USA, barely 50 miles from Miami, it’s a very short trip and only a few hours by yacht from Miami. A tiny island of the Bahamas, Bimini is just 7 miles long and barely 700 feet wide at its widest point. Bimini is the western most island in the Bahamas and the closest foreign island to the US mainland and has previously been recognized mainly for the famous Hemingway era.

Whether you come with the family, as a couple, or single for bar hopping, casinos, scuba diving, snorkeling, fishing, tanning on the beaches, or relaxing in a hammock in the cool breeze, the Bahamas will leave you speechless and satisfied. A US Passport or birth certificate is required when traveling to the Bahamas.

BAHAMAS YACHT CHARTERS TO NASSAU, HARBOUR CAY, BERRY ISLANDS

The more ‘popular’ areas of the Bahamas begins in the Berry Islands, while on your way to Nassau, which are low-lying and unique with few inhabitants, fantastic fishing and the feeling of being on a different planet. Many groups make Chub Cay their first stop, then go north…or start in Great Stirrup Cay and go Southwards. Either way, even on a power-yacht, it will take a week or longer to when traveling by yacht. If leaving from Miami, charterers will cross the Gulf Stream with its seasonal uncertainties, with slight chances of the charter being delayed a day or so, if the seas are too rough, but this is not normally the case and the journey is well worth it!! Most our charter guests prefer to fly into Nassau, and board their sailing or motor yacht at the Atlantis Hotel and Marina, beginning their cruise in Bahamas, avoiding the seven-hour delivery across the Atlantic Ocean. Other charterers, especially the bare-boaters, like to fly into Marsh Harbour in the Abacos and rent a charter boat from there and explore the Sea of Abaco.

The Atlantis Hotel Casino and Resort is the largest and most amazing resort in all of Bahamas, offering 5-Star amenities for all ages including a theme waterpark, the Caribbean’s largest aquarium, interactive dolphin lagoon, world-class casino and spa, couture brand shopping center, and over a dozen fine dining restaurants. Many charters begin and end their charter at the Atlantis Marina, which provides just enough excitement and action for a couple of days, while other days are spent exploring the more remote islands.

For more information about the casino, visit http://www.atlantisbahamas.com/

BAHAMAS YACHT CHARTERS TO EXUMAS AND ABACOS

The Exumas chain of 365 islands (or cays) in the Bahamas, starts about 35 nm South of Nassau and runs about 120 nm South from Allen Cay, all the way to Georgetown that has an airport with regular scheduled flights. This is considered the most sought after location in the Bahamas with crystal-clear waters, swimming pigs, superb diving, friendly petting sharks, snorkeling, fishing and lots of neat little bays and coves to anchor out. Exumas is a special strip of private islands where one can find a lone Tiki beach bar in the middle of seemingly nowhere…in paradise! Be sure to visit Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park, which some consider the most breathtaking place is the Exumas. http://www.exumapark.org. There are some great itineraries that start and end either in Nassau or Staniel Cay and cover the upper Exumas, Cat Island, Eleuthera, and Harbour island.

For the even more adventurous, a Georgetown pick-up and a route that includes the “Out-Islands” of the Bahamas is even more attractive for those of us who like remote and mostly uninhabited islands. The few locals you encounter are very friendly and polite. This route includes the islands of Rum Cay, Conception, San Salvador, Long Island, Acklins, Crooked Islands, and Mayaguana. The island of Great Inagua has a fine National Park and nature reserve with the largest population of West Indian Flamingoes, Parrots, and other bird species. Little Inagua has a large population of feral donkeys and goats that were originally left there (or escaped from) the numerous wrecks caused by the Inagua reef.

In the Northern Bahamas, the Sea of Abaco, with its three “major towns” of Marsh Harbour, Hopetown and Coopers Town and ringed by Green Turtle Cay, Treasure Cay and many others, constitutes a small isolated area with its own special culture and values. The Abacos are especially known for calm waters, warm breezes and panoramic beauty that make this 120-mile–long chain of islands a boating and sailing paradise. It’s not just the sea that attracts travelers from around the world. Those who prefer to explore by land will find championship golf courses on Treasure Cay, charming colonial towns on Green Turtle and Elbow Cays, and countless hotels, restaurants and bars throughout.

In summary, the Bahamas is not just Bimini and the casinos of Freeport, Lucaya, Nassau and Paradise Island. The real Bahamas can be seen only by a private charter boat and remains one of the most unbelievable recreational cruising grounds in the world.

Please contact us to arrange a Bahamas charter vacation, customized just for you and your group.

It’s divided in 3 small Islands: North, East, and South Bimini, with North and South Bimini being the largest. Also, the name is derived from these 2 Islands (Bi Mini).

PLANNING YOUR TRIP TO BIMINI

Typical departure from Miami is early  in the morning around 9am, for timely arrival in Bimini to clear customs ( passports needed ). You should be ready to pick up your golf cart at the marina by 2pm. We will make sure marina dockage and golf cart are reserved so you can enjoy and relax from the moment you arrive. Drive around the Island and pass by  Joe’s Conch Shack  have their famous conch salad and you may even catch them cleaning and prepping it (see picture below).  Conch  is the most famous seafood dish in Bimini so you may also want to try Stuarts delicious conch salad.

You can go around the island and stop by the beaches for a swim, stop by a shack and enjoy a local Kalik beer while enjoying the view of pastel colored wooden homes and breathe in the fresh ocean air. Once you finished exploring it’s time to go back to the marina, relax on your boat and get ready for dinner. You may choose a fancy dinner at  Sabor restaurant  inside the Hilton Resorts World Bimini or a local laid back option like  Edith’s Pizza , which serves a lot more than pizza. Finish your night at the  Casino  at Hilton Resorts World Bimini. Or, if it’s a weekend, you may relax by the marina listening to live band music. Or, one of our weekend favorites is  Big John’s Bar & Grill,  which was just remodeled in April 2017

Let’s get the engine started and move the boat towards the area where  dolphins  like to hang around. If we’re lucky, you will be able to see some and even swim with them. We just ask that you keep in mind they are wild mammals and you should always take precautions.

We will mostly likely stop by the SSS Sapona Shipwreck by South Bimini, where you may enjoy amazing  snorkeling . If your chartered yacht is equipped with a  jet ski , this is the time to hop on one and take it around the shipwreck, jump in the water to snorkel and capture beautiful pictures to share back home.

On 2-night trips, we can take you to  a private island called Cat Cay , located only 10 miles away from Bimini. Here visitors are permitted to moor for no more than 24 hours. Enjoy some fine cuisine at Nauticat Restaurant or Bu’s Bar for a more relaxed atmosphere.

The island is managed by Cat Cay Yacht Club and non-members may only visit accompanied by members. For a private tour for membership inquiries or more information, please visit their website.

CHOOSING A BOAT

Now let’s choose the  perfect boat for you . It all depends how many guests are joining you and if you are planning to sleep on the boat or in a hotel.

We can help you choose from a medium size vessel like a  54’ Sea Ray Sundancer  with 2 rooms or a  64’ Azimut  with 3 staterooms. For fishing aficionados, we have a  50’ or a 60’ Hatteras  fishing boat so you can enjoy Big Game Fishing.

Do you have a bigger budget in mind? We recommend a  75’ Sunseeker Manhattan  which is ultra comfortable and luxurious equipped with all the amenities you may need. If you decide you rather stay overnight in a hotel than your chartered vessel, we can recommend one of our partner’s resorts.

Fishing charters are permitted for no more than 6 guests by law.

Miami Yacht Term Charter – Bimini, Bahamas

Here’s your chance to get away from the mainland with an adventure to bimini..

Miami Yacht Term Charter - Bimini, Bahamas

Bimini Bay Beach Resort Casino Bimini Bay Marina Bimini Shipwreck Snorkeling and Scuba Swim with Dolphins Ponce de Leon’s Fountain of Youth

When you charter a yacht to the Bahamas , you’ll visit a chain of tiny islands situated just west of the Bahamas that are merely a three hour boat ride away from South Beach, Miami. Bimini is rich in history, culture and is home to many landmarks that can be visited only by boat. Known for its laid back lifestyle, crystal clear water, pristine white sandy beaches and picturesque nature trails, visitors are pleasantly surprised with the many activities waiting to be explored. If you’re a diver or snorkeler, Bimini offers some of the finest aqua experiences around. Swim up close with wild dolphins and stingrays, or explore the age old remains of a mysterious shipwreck.

One of the most well known tourist destinations in the area is Underwater Bimini Road; an unusual rock formation that dates back centuries and is believed to be the remnants of an ancient human built road. Located near Bimini Road is what some people believe to be Ponce de Leon’s Fountain of Youth. Locals call this pool of water the Healing Hole which lies at the end of a network of underground tunnels that pump cool, fresh water during outgoing tides.

Rent a Boat Charter in Bimini, Bahamas with Sailo!

Choosing a boat rental in Bimini, Bahamas? Adventures await you in beautiful Bahamas — there a lot of things to do in Bimini ! Nestled in the Bahamas not too far when sailing the southern Florida coast , Bimini is an island destination you’ve got to add to your travel bucket list. And like all of the other tropical vacation areas we recommend to travelers on Sailo, Bimini is a fantastic area to explore by boat rental.

Because Bimini is located only 50 miles from Florida, why not book a boat rental from Miami or Fort Lauderdale to Bimini so you can take the boating trip of your dreams to some of the most beautiful islands in the world? Here’s everything you need to know about your Bimini boat rental, from how to find the perfect yacht charter to what to do once you get to the islands.

Finding a Bimini boat rental

Thanks to Sailo’s convenient, user-friendly platform, finding a yacht charter for your trip from south Florida to Bimini or other islands in the Bahamas has never been easier. Use Sailo’s filters to customize your search by boat type ( sailboat rentals in Bimini , motor boat charters in Bimini , catamaran rentals in Bimini , or Bimini party boats ), price, number of people in your party, whether you need a captain or are renting bareboat, and your travel dates, as well as other filters that can narrow your results to your specific needs. This convenient search tool makes finding your Bimini boat rental simple and quick since you can select your preferences to find the exact charter you need for your trip.

Daily rentals are very common in South Florida, but because Bimini is so close, many visitors like to charter an overnight yacht and sail to Bimini for a slice of island paradise during their vacation to the area.

Overnight from South Florida to Bimini

Since visiting Bimini by a yacht charter from Florida is highly popular, we recommend renting a boat in Miami, Miami Beach, or Fort Lauderdale, sailing to Bimini, and staying overnight for one or multiple days at a time.

We recommend spending a long weekend in Bimini. Arrive in Miami or Fort Lauderdale and sail to Bimini, one of our favorite island destinations in the stunning Bahamas. Gorgeous blue waters will greet you with sparkling waves as you sail to paradise. Once you arrive, you’ve got to spend some time exploring the beautiful beaches that line the islands, as well as local cays like Honeymoon and Gun Cay.

And since tropical vacations are even more fun when you dive in the water and embrace the ocean to the fullest, we recommend checking with the boat owner to see if your rental can include water sports equipment for activities like snorkeling.

It’s also very popular to go on overnight fishing trips to this area, another activity you can ask the boat owner about.

In addition to trying the local Bahamian cuisine and checking out the shops and beaches on the island, you’ve got to add the S.S. Sapona to your list of must-sees in Bimini. This shipwreck is great to explore, whether you’re snorkeling or even fishing here.

Things to do in Bimini, Bahamas

You’ve got to take into account the weather when booking your Bimini boat rental as this area is known for tropical storms that can be pretty unpredictable. You never know when inclement weather may impact your trip or hinder your ability to sail from South Florida to the Bimini islands.

We recommend taking a look at the historic weather averages during the time you plan on sailing and booking your yacht charter during a time with typically milder weather, or at least avoiding peak hurricane season from June through October.

If you are looking for more recommendations or tips for visiting Bimini by a yacht charter, whether you’re traveling with a group, as a couple, with your family, or even by yourself on a solo sailing trip, we highly recommend reaching out to the boat representative to gain more insight on boat rentals in Bimini and the south Florida area.

Bimini Yacht Charters

Bimini yacht charters offer the perfect luxury vacation.

Bimini, situated east of Miami, Florida in the Bahamas, is a true island paradise, perfect for yacht charters. The Gulf Stream, with its warm waters and extensive sea life, flows north of the island providing the opportunity to Bimini yacht charter guests to spot dolphins, marlin, sea turtles, and manta rays.

Bimini consists of North and South Bimini islands. The main settlement of Alice Town, located on North Bimini, has shops, restaurants, and taverns along the main strip known as “The King’s Highway.” Many yacht charters in the Bahamas come to this beautiful location for the big-game fish, but the islands have so much more to offer.

Exotic, unspoiled, and captivating, Bimini offers any yacht charter guests the perfect island retreat for a romantic honeymoon , luxury vacation, or corporate retreat. Pinkish gold sand offsets the cobalt waters of this stunning island paradise, ready-made for a variety of blissful beachside excursions. Swim on secluded beaches, snorkel in a cluster of tropical fish, or simply soak in the rays of the sun while listening to island birdsong.

Calm waters, warm air, and large colonies of dolphins provide the perfect backdrop for spending the day under a summery sky. Or if you’d rather, journey to the local hotspots where the rum flows and island music entertains. Shopping and sunset bars offer the opportunity to take a respite from lounging on your yacht’s deck. But don’t linger too long inside…the pleasures of Bimini are embedded in the tropical landscape of this heavenly escape.

Things to Do & See on Your Bimini Charter

An isolated isle in Bimini

Scuba Diving

Snorkeling and diving yacht charters are popular in Bimini due to the vast array of marine life along the miles of coral reefs. Many shipwrecks in the area offer stunning underwater dive sites. The SS Sapona , for instance, was caught in a hurricane in 1926. It ran aground, leaving the top of the ship above water with the rest submerged. Some of the wood was stripped and used to build the Compleat Angler Hotel and Bar. Other interesting dive sites include “Bimini Road,” purportedly part of Atlantis, and the Gulf Stream drop-off, where the ocean floor drops an amazing 2,000 feet.

The Fountain of Youth

On North Bimini in a saltwater swamp surrounded by mangrove trees is “The Healing Hole,” a mineral-filled freshwater pool that is surrounded by winding underground tunnels. However, it is within the shallow pools of South Bimini that Juan Ponce de León found the fabled Fountain of Youth .

Shark Mounds

These sand dunes are formed in a variety of animal shapes, including the shark. Even though the animals can only been seen while flying over the islands, early maps depict the dune shapes. Controversy about the origin of the Shark Mounds exists still today.

Visit the Hemingway Museum on Your Bimini Yacht Charter

Ernest Hemingway moved to Bimini in 1935 to spend his days fishing and writing. He wrote To Have And Have Not here as well as his unfinished manuscript, In The Stream. The museum, located in the lounge of the Compleat Angler Hotel, features pictures and writings from his two-year stay here.

Explore Bimini Beaches

Of course, yacht charter guests love the beaches of Bimini. These unpolluted, soft, white sandy beaches are of the best in the Bahamas. The blue, clear water caresses the edge of the beach. The breeze is delightful and the sun is a smile in the sky. Remote beaches, such as Bimini Bay, Porgy Bay, and Paradise Point, are favorites of charterers.

Swim with Dolphins

Wild Atlantic Spotted Dolphins were found in the mid-1990s to have taken up residence in the warm salty waters of Bimini. It’s not uncommon for these enchanting creatures to come close during a swim or want to nestle nearby. No dive or snorkel equipment needed.

Big Game Fishing

Big game fishing is legendary in Bimini, home to one of the most historical fishing spots in the Bahamas chain known as Out Islands. Catch a 12-pound bonefish, blue marlin, or otherworldly giant gold and blue yellowfin tuna while on your Bahamian adventure. And don’t be surprised if you find a shark at the end of your fishing line.

Visit Alice Town

A cozy area of beachfront commerce and the center of the tourist trade on North Bimini Island, this tropical town features hotels, bars, and restaurants just a stone’s throw (or seashells) from the ocean. Leisurely stroll through the settlement dating back to 1848 and enjoy mid-day shopping or a refreshing pina colada at a family-owned bar.

There are many exciting activities for the whole family on your Bimini yacht charter. Call our charter specialists today to arrange the escape to paradise!

Bimini Islands Yacht Charter

BIMINI ISLANDS YACHT CHARTER and term Charter options with a large selection of luxury boats available to discover the wonderful Bimini islands

Bimini Term Charters and Boat Rental

Located just 50 miles off Florida’s coast, Bimini are the closest Bahamian islands to Miami and are ideal for a weekend escape. 

Bimini consists of two main islands: North Bimini Island, South Bimini Island and numerous cays. Despite being only 7 miles long the islands offer a wonderful escape and an array of things to do from diving to dolphin watching and exploring sunken shipwrecks. Bimini has a very laid back feel and it really does feel like another world especially if you sail here from Miami for a term charter, its like entering a different universe. Along with the wonderful white beaches and chilled vibes the islands do have some interesting history from Ponce de Leon apparently lured there 500 years ago in search of the famed fountain of youth through to more recent times as a liquor store during the years of prohibition in mainland US. "Rumrunners" used the islands as a base to get their product to the USA and keen explorers can discover some of the wrecks around the islands. The SS Sapona offers just such an adventure and a wonderful spot for snorkeling and surrounding yourself with thousands of tropical fish as you rediscover the "ghost ship".

Bimini Road  is a underwater rock formation and key attraction of the islands definitely worth discovering - an example of one of the many attractions only possible to visit by boat and why discovering the islands by boat is the only real way to get to the heart of them and immerse yourself in treasures of the region.

Bimini Big Game Fishing

Bimini is situated on the edge of a stream of warm waters emulating from the gulf stream which pushes tropical waters north and with it creates some of the best game fishing in the world and has documented many record catches. Bimini remains on to the best Sport Fishing destination and a hub for Big Game fishing in the region. The prevalence of fishing is even seen in the name of the Marina being called "Big Game Marina".

Bimini By Boat

Bimini is located more or less 3 hours from Miami and South Beach so all that is left to do is choose the boat that suits you best and whether a  term charter or a day charter  let us know your ideas and we can make it happen. See a selection of boats HERE or drop us a message on the enquiry page.

By Julie Gabriel   13 November 2023

Located just 50 miles off Florida’s coast, Bimini offers visitors a slice of Bahamian paradise which is easily accessible from the United States. This small island may only be seven miles long, but it is filled with a myriad of activities to guarantee 24/7 entertainment during your luxury yacht charter .

1. Bimini Road

Also known as the 'Road to Atlantis,' the origins of this mysterious underwater rock formation have puzzled scientists and explorers for years. Be sure to take advantage of the snorkeling equipment onboard your motor yacht charter to decide for yourself whether this underwater landmark is a natural occurrence, or indeed a manmade structure that points to the legendary city of Atlantis. Whatever you decide, everyone in your charter party will agree that the sight of these rocks set in the turquoise blue waters typical of the Bahamas is an unforgettable one.

2. Deep-Sea Fishing

Bimini is often called the ‘Big Game Fishing Capital of the Bahamas.’ As the island is nestled in the Gulf Stream’s warm waters, anglers have access to this highway for migrating fish and food that have allowed local species like blue marlin, tuna, and wahoo to grow to record sizes. Its reputation for offering some of the best fishing opportunities in the Caribbean has attracted many famous people, including literary giant Ernest Hemingway who would escape to Bimini on his boat, Pilar.

After spending a morning soaking up the panoramic sea views over breakfast, grab your fishing equipment and be wowed by the sights that lay below the waters’ surface.

3. Bimini Biological Field Station

Bimini consists of various islets with diverse ecosystems, from mangrove forests to seagrass beds. For those who want to explore the sea in a different way, visit the Bimini Biological Field Station. Known as the Shark Lab, this world-renowned research facility offers guided tours that allow you to learn about shark research and conservation, while also being taken by the undeniably cute baby nurse and lemon sharks that you can pet.

4. Golf Cart Exploration

The best way to see Bimini is by golf cart. Rent one for the day and explore the island at your own pace. Stop by local shops, hidden beaches, and historical landmarks while taking in the island's natural beauty.

5. Scuba Diving

The crystal-clear waters around Bimini are perfect for snorkeling, scuba diving, and underwater photography. Not only do these conditions make for a visually stunning experience, but they also provide safe and enjoyable conditions for water-based activities for all ages and skill levels.

Red starfish on the seabed

Bimini offers multiple dive sites ranging from reefs to wrecks. Some of the popular sites include Tuna Alley, Sapona Shipwreck, and Moray Alley. We also recommend visiting Rainbow Reef where, as the name suggests, the vibrant colors of the local sealife and coral reefs make for captivating views. 

6. Watersports

No charter in Bimini would be complete without taking advantage of the water toys onboard your superyacht. By exploring Bimini’s mangroves and shallow waters by paddleboard or kayak, you’ll be mesmerized by the crystal-clear waters and the calm serenity surrounding you. 

7. Alice Town

Stroll through Alice Town to soak up some authentic Bahamian atmosphere. You'll find pastel-colored conch shacks, lively bars, and quaint shops selling local crafts. Don't forget to try a traditional conch salad or the Bahamian staple, Kalik beer.

During your visit, be sure to check out the Dolphin House: built by historian and poet, Ashley Saunders, this unique little house resembles something that famous architect, Antoni Gaudi might have built. Its walls are covered with colorful mosaics of dolphins made out of sea glass, shells, bottles, and more in an homage to the Saunders’ family’s historical business as scavengers from shipwrecks. It is a charming and incredibly unique slice of local history worth a visit while on the island. 

8. Sunset at Bimini Bay

Sun setting over houses surrounded by trees and grass on Bimini

No visit to Bimini would be complete without watching the sunset over the waters of Bimini Bay. The vibrant hues of pinks, oranges, and purples reflecting over the calm waters are the perfect way to end your day in this tropical paradise. Head back onboard your superyacht to enjoy the view from the comfort of your jacuzzi, with your favorite drink in hand. 

9. Try typical Bahamian cuisine

Freshly made conch salad from Stuart's

The Bahamas is home to the famous conch salad, a refreshing seafood dish that combines this local delicacy with chopped tomato, peppers, and lime juice. We recommend visiting Stuart's Conch Stand where this salad is made in front of you. Take your salad from the friendly staff at the stand to enjoy sitting on the warm, white sand.

10. Dine at Resorts World Bimini

For those in your charter party wanting a more upscale dining experience, head to the Sushi Bar at Resorts World Bimini. Everything from the sashimi to the uramaki is beautifully presented, making it a chic spot perfect for a romantic dinner or a sophisticated night out. Their drink menu is also noteworthy, featuring a selection of fine wines and Japanese sake.

Uramaki roles served at The Sushi Bar

With its wide array of activities, Bimini is the perfect stop off while chartering in Florida , or in the Bahamas. If you would like to incorporate any of these recommended activities into your next Bahamas charter , then be sure to speak to your preferred charter broker .

Should You Charter a Yacht From Florida to The Bahamas?

The answer is YES & NO; depending on time, budget, and Bahamas destination. These variables change with each yacht charter. So the real question is: How do you maximize your time while getting the most out of your budget?

These breathtaking islands are only a short distance from Florida, making them the ideal cruising destination for your next vacation or holiday. We can help you to plan and execute your perfect yachting vacation , avoiding some common pitfalls that many of our charter clients have fallen victim to.

In this article, we will discuss the best way to get to popular Bahama destinations when planning a yacht charter Bahamas vacation to ensure your vacation is nothing but smooth sailing.

Bimini, Bahamas

yacht charter to bimini

Yacht Charters from Fort Lauderdale or Miami To Bimini, Does it Make Sense?

The short answer is yes, you should leave Florida to Bimini. It rarely makes sense to meet your yacht in Bimini.

Bimini is an excellent choice for a charter destination leaving from South Florida especially Miami, it’s only 50 nautical miles away and easy to get to with straight shot across the Gulf Stream. The best time to cross the Gulf Stream is in the summer months when the water is calmer. It’s also stunningly beautiful.

If you’re chartering a motor yacht, it is possible to go from Miami to Bimini in under 3 hours, making a day trip a possibility. However, a day trip can be very cost inefficient, especially considering most of your day will be cruising across the gulf stream and not enjoying the beautiful Bahamian waters.

Find out more about luxury Miami yacht rentals so you can get a head start on your trip! CharterLux has plenty of yachts to choose from and can help you throughout the entire process.

We recommend a 3-day charter to get the most out of your trip.

Note: We do not recommend day trips on holidays when customs can be backed up.

Yacht Charters Abaco & Exuma Bahamas

yacht charter to bimini

Yacht Charter from Fort Lauderdale or Miami To Nassau

The answer is no, you shouldn’t charter a yacht from South Florida to the Bahamas (except Bimini), but the answer isn’t short.

If you’re looking to charter a yacht in the Bahamas for 7-10 days you most likely would be visiting the islands of the Abacos and Exumas. Most charter yachts depart from the capital of the Bahamas (Nassau) mainly for the reasons below.

Things to Consider When Chartering a Yacht From Florida to Bahamas:

Financial considerations.

Sales Tax – Sales tax in the Bahamas is 4% versus 7% in South Florida [Palm Beach County (West Palm Beach), Broward County (Fort Lauderdale) and Dade County (Miami)].

Price of Fuel – Fuel prices are around half the price in Florida than in the Bahamas.

Amount of Fuel – The amount of fuel the yacht will consume to get to the Bahamas & back to Florida could supersede the repositioning fee it will cost you to relocate the yacht.

Time – Miami to Nassau is 160nm, which means it would take one full day to arrive in Nassau, costing you a significant amount of money in fuel and wasted time cruising to your destination. The amount of time (money) it will take cruising to the Bahamas and back to Florida will most likely supersede the repositioning fee charged by the yacht owner and can take two days out of your Bahamas yacht charter.

Cost Savings Example:

  • 100ft+ yacht that charters for $50,000 a week ($7,142 a day)
  • Cruises 16knts @ 120gph fuel burn
  • 10hrs (each way) x 2 = 20hrs
  • 20hrs x120gph = 2,400gal
  • 2,400gal x $3.50gal (est.) = $8,400
  • Lose two days of time traveling open ocean that could be spent in the Abacos or Exumas – $7,142 a day x 2 =$14,284
  • $5,000 Repo fee (est.)
  • $8,400 fuel + $14,284 in charter time – $5,000 repo fee = $17,684 in savings!

Legal Considerations

Liability – Most yachts will have to charter off of a Demise/Bareboat charter agreement if departing from U.S. waters. Departing from Bahamian waters you can charter off of a Time Charter Agreement, limiting your liability as a charterer.

Vessel Status – Foreign flagged vessels that have not paid their U.S. duties by law cannot charter from U.S. waters.

Accessibility

Mother Nature– Weather can affect the amount of time it takes cruising to your destination. It’s never fun to sail through rough weather. Once you are in the Bahamas your captain should be able to alter your itinerary to best avoid rough seas.

International Airport– Nassau has an international airport which has direct flights from Fort Lauderdale and many more cites.

Table of Contents

Chartering a yacht in the Bahamas is a dream for many enthusiasts due to the Crystal clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and world-class charter destinations.

Understanding the Best Time to Charter a Yacht in the Bahamas

The Bahamas has a year-round tropical climate, making it a great place to visit anytime. However, the seasons can greatly influence your yachting experience. The warm temperatures and gentle trade winds make it inviting, but the time of the year is important.

The Yacht charter season tends to be busy over Christmas and New Years with premium charter rates for these holidays.. The most popular time to charter a Yacht in the Bahamas is from late March through August, with favorable weather. Moreover the cold fronts are less in March and April offering perfect conditions for exploring the turquoise waters and beaches.

The summer months of June, July, August, September and October have advantages. Despite the hurricane season, it offers solitude and calmer waters. The best months for yacht charter in the Bahamas during the low season are May and early June before the hurricane season intensifies.

Navigating Hurricane Season

Hurricane season in the Bahamas is from June to November, peaking between August and October. Monitoring the weather and being flexible with your itinerary are key strategies.

Event-Driven Charters: Finding the Best Time to Charter a Yacht in the Bahamas

Timing your yacht in the Bahamas around local events can enhance your experience. The Junkanoo Festival in December is a cultural highlight, while the Regatta in April and May is a must-see for sailing enthusiasts. Chartering a boat during this period allows anyone to immerse in the vibrant culture.

Exploring Bahamian Destinations by Season

The best time to explore the Bahamas varies by destination. The Exumas and Nassau are appealing due to clear waters and mild weather in the winter months. Spring is perfect for visiting the Abacos, for world-class scuba diving and charming islands. In the summer, the less-visited Out Islands offer a tranquil escape, while fall provides a quiet, peaceful atmosphere to avoid crowds.

Marine Life and Water Activities: Optimal Times for Chartering a Yacht in the Bahamas

The seasons in the Bahamas affect marine life and water activities. The best months for a yacht charter in the Bahamas for snorkeling or scuba diving are November to May when the waters are clear and abundant. It’s the ideal time to explore coral reefs and encounter species.

Navigating Yacht Availability and Pricing in the Bahamas

Types of Yachts and pricing in the Bahamas fluctuate with the seasons, so planning is essential according to your preferences. During the winter season from December to April, the demand for luxury boat rentals soarr with limited availability. To secure the best deals, booking early is crucial.

Alternatively, the low season from May to November often features more yacht availability. For those who enjoy spontaneity, last-minute charter options can be appealing. However, these may come with a higher price tag or fewer choices, as popular ones may already be booked.

Savoring Bahamian Cuisine: Timing Your Culinary Experience

Experiencing the local cuisine is a highlight of any Bahamian yacht charter. Fresh Bahamian seafood , including conch and lobster, reaches its peak quality from late summer through early winter. This is the ideal time to enjoy succulent dishes crafted from the freshest ingredients. Seasonal delicacies, such as rock lobster and stone crab, are best sampled during their prime harvesting periods.

Additionally, timing your charter to coincide with local food festivals, such as the Junkanoo Festival in December or the Bahamas Carnival in May, offers a unique opportunity to dive into the island’s rich culinary traditions and vibrant scene.

Maximizing Your Yacht Charter Experience

To maximize your Bahamas charter, choose the right yacht for the season. Motor yachts are popular for their speed and comfort, allowing you to explore multiple islands easily. Planning your Bahamas itinerary around the best times ensures you experience at its finest.
