We know the struggle

Winter in the Northeast and the other colder parts of the US is OK. There are, in fact, lots of good things about it. Brisk walks under chilly, but bright skies. Hot chocolate in front of big roaring fireplaces. Hearty stews and warming soups and the simple joy of a snowball fight.

There are however, plenty of downsides too. Cars that won’t start because they’re too cold. Slushy snow and ice that makes it hard to walk, let alone drive. Snow shoveling. A house full of cabin crazy folks who want to go outside but don’t because, well, they don’t want to freeze to death, so they all stay in and fight and argue instead.  Yes, winter can be OK, but most people do wish that they could go back to the beach, if only for a day.

It’s for these reasons and more that Florida winter vacations are so very popular, especially with the Northern folks. Here in Florida, Santa makes his rounds in his board shorts and if you want to eat Christmas lunch on the beachfront while topping up your tan you can.

There’s a way out!

Many of those who head south for a winter vacation in Miami choose to stay at one of the city’s admittedly fine hotels. And that’s great, but there is an alternative, or perhaps an extra to consider, when planning a Miami winter vacation.

Taking advantage of the fact that a Miami yacht charter is easily and readily available – and often at a price that is far less extravagant than you might have imagined – allows you to take your Miami winter adventuring to a whole new level, as it opens up so many more opportunities. Like what, we hear you ask. How about any one – or all – of these, just for starters.

A Day Trip to Bimini with Miami Yacht Charter 

Located just 50 miles east of Miami by sea, the three islands that make up the District of Bimini – North Bimini, South Bimini, and East Bimini – offer the kinds of simple summer pleasures that any still thawing out vacationer will enjoy immensely. Stunning sandy beaches, world class fishing – Bimini is not known as the Fishing Capital of the Bahamas for nothing – amazing yet affordable dining and that is just the beginning. It’s a history buff’s paradise too and legend says that it is in Bimini that Juan Ponce de León found his Fountain of Youth, and so if you want to spend an afternoon looking for it, why not?

Stage Your Own Mini Bahamas Cruise

Ever wanted to go on a cruise around the Bahamas, but aren’t too keen on the idea of a standard cruise ship? The crowds, enforced itineraries and endless generic buffets aren’t for everyone, especially if all you really want is to experience the Bahamas while also getting away from it all, including overly energetic kids and slightly dodgy cabaret acts.

A Miami yacht charter offers you the opportunity to stage your own, perfect for you, cruise around the Bahamas. You don’t actually have to do the hard work of sailing (unless you want to) as you can hire an experienced captain to do ‘the driving’ for you. By the same token although almost every yacht charter in Miami does come equipped with a great galley you don’t have to use it, you can bring along a great chef to do the cooking while you just enjoy the fruits of their labor in style.

Just try it, trust us!

Philip Starck’s Sailing Yacht A

The Sailing Yacht A, designed by legendary artist Philip Starck, is a $450-million-dollar luxury vessel built for Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko. The 400-foot yacht is one of Starck’s most famous, keeping company with The Venus, a minimalist megayacht he designed specifically for Steve Jobs.

The Motor Yacht A has eight decks that include three swimming pools, a disco, and a helipad for that quick afternoon trip out to sea. 2,500 square feet of master bedroom await a peaceful slumber after a night of dancing. Mirrored surfaces line the boat’s interior while much of the furniture and adornments are made of French crystal.

Zaha Hadid’s Unique Circle Yacht Family

Teaming up with Blohm+Voss, a German shipbuilding firm, Hadid designed a futuristic superyacht prototype, one to eventually guide the creation of several other yachts based on his design. The JAZZ yacht is the first of such maritime offspring. Hadid wanted to design a yacht endowed with a natural, organic appearance that meshes with the ocean as well as maintaining a functionality that was integrated seamlessly with the design. Just imagine booking a yacht charter like this.

The Hedonists

Art of Kinetik’s Hedonist yacht line contains vessels with sleek and streamlined designs and a master perfectionist leading the composition and arrangement behind the scenes. This perfectionist is Boris Ivanovic and his yachts have been called floating pieces of art by those in and out of the boating world.

The Hedonist open-top and hard-top models carry some of the cleanest and slickest aesthetics in the yachting world. A solid mahogany hull and Rolls Royce water jets give a smooth and quiet ride even at 40 knots. The pilot’s chair that’s been called an ergonomic masterpiece took nine months to design and engineer.

The Dubai

Originally commissioned by the Prince of Brunei 20 years ago, it was the leader of Dubai who acquired this epic megayacht and decided to design himself its illustrious interior. A spiral staircase built with glass steps changes colors as the light from the top deck weaves in and out of the vessel. Multiple Jacuzzis and a massive hand-tiled swimming pool are just some of the luxuries aboard the Dubai. Previously the largest yacht in the world, it had to step down as number one when the massive Azzam megayacht was built.

The History Supreme

With a $4.5 billion-dollar price tag, the History Supreme is the most expensive yacht in the world. Stuart Hughes, a luxury designer from the UK that has an infamous past working with jewelry, spent more than three years completing the gold-plated luxury vessel, and it was quickly purchased by an anonymous Malaysian businessman.

The History Supreme contains a statue built from Tyrannosaurus Rex bones, a 24-carat gold Aquavista Panoramic Wall Aquarium lining the master bedroom, and walls made of meteoric stone. Topped off with an 18.5-carat diamond plated bottle of premium-quality liquor, this yacht is nothing less than pure extravagance.

Subtler Alternatives

The enjoyment of experiencing luxury yachts is something that shouldn’t be missed, and with a luxury yacht charter, you get 100% of the experience at a fraction of the cost of actually buying or leasing one. Of course, you don’t have to spend a few hours or a weekend on a flashy, extravagant yacht if that’s not quite your style.

Yacht manufacturers like VanDutch could be more up your alley, keeping up with superb quality but focusing more on functionality and simplicity. With all the essentials met, VanDutch yachts still seamlessly implement cutting-edge technology, creating a perfect blend of comfort and accessibility.
