The Best Way to See Miami From the Water
Boarding begins about 30 minutes before departure at our Miami marina, so you have time to settle in before we pull away from the dock. Sunset cruises are timed to reach open water right as the sky begins to turn gold, so the Miami skyline, Star Island, and the bay stay lit up for the whole sailing — the same view our guests describe as the highlight of their Miami cruise & boat tour.
