Charter the Leopard catamaran 53ft in Miami from $3,900 for a 4-hour minimum charter — up to 13 guests, captain and crew included. This spacious catamaran offers a flybridge, jet ski, and two staterooms for overnight trips. Board at a designated marina we coordinate when you book. Reserve via WhatsApp or Telegram for same-day availability.
The Leopard catamaran 53ft is the yacht you book when you want stability, space, and serious fun on the water. Its wide beam means you won't be stumbling around even when a wake rolls through Biscayne Bay — a huge plus for groups with kids, grandparents, or anyone who wants to actually relax rather than hold on. This is the yacht for a birthday celebration where the DJ set matters as much as the views of Star Island, or a corporate client lunch where the conversation flows as smoothly as the ride.
Groups of 13 fit comfortably across the main deck and the flybridge, so nobody feels crowded. The included jet ski turns a simple sandbar stop into an afternoon of adrenaline at Key Biscayne. And because this catamaran has two staterooms, it works for overnight trips when you want to wake up anchored in a quiet cove rather than heading back to the marina at sunset. Whether you're planning a bachelorette party with stops at Nikki Beach or a family day snorkeling in the clear shallows, the Leopard 53 handles it all with ease.
The Leopard catamaran 53ft is built for comfort and versatility on Miami waters. Here are the exact specs that define this charter experience.
| Length | 53 ft |
| Guests (Cruising) | 13 |
| Staterooms | 2 |
| Flybridge | Yes — upper deck with seating and helm |
| Jet Ski | Yes — included in charter |
| Toys & Water Sports | Snorkeling gear, cooler with ice |
| Captain & Crew | Included in all charters |
The flybridge is where this catamaran shines — it seats your whole group with the helm right there, so you can watch the captain navigate while you soak up the sun. The two staterooms give you the option to extend your charter overnight, something most day-boats in Miami simply can't offer. With a jet ski included, you're ready for adventure the moment you leave the marina.

Miami's waterways are your playground, and the Leopard 53 can take you anywhere. Here are the four most popular routes our guests request.
Cruise past the mansions of Star Island and Fisher Island while the Miami skyline rises behind you. Your captain will point out celebrity homes as you glide through the calm bay waters — it's the classic Miami experience, and the catamaran's stable ride makes it perfect for sipping champagne while you gawk.
Anchor at the famous sandbar just off Key Biscayne, where the water is clear and shallow enough to wade. Break out the snorkeling gear, fire up the jet ski, and spend hours swimming in the warm shallows. On weekends, the sandbar is a floating party — and your catamaran is the best seat in the house.
Head out through Government Cut, where you'll watch massive cruise ships depart the Port of Miami while the South Beach coastline stretches behind you. The ocean swells are bigger here, but the Leopard 53 handles them with confidence. Keep an eye out for dolphins — they often play in the wake.
There's no better way to end the day than a sunset cruise from Bayside Marketplace toward Fisher Island. As the sun dips below the horizon, the sky turns shades of orange and pink, and the city lights begin to twinkle. It's pure magic — and the flybridge is the best spot to watch it all unfold.
The Leopard 53 is a versatile yacht, but it truly shines on specific occasions. Here are the six most popular reasons our guests book this catamaran.

Boarding takes place at a designated marina — we coordinate the exact location when you book. Our standard marinas include Miami Beach Marina, Bayside Marketplace, Island Gardens Deep Harbour, Coconut Grove Marina, and Sunset Harbour. Each offers convenient access to the best cruising grounds, whether you're heading to Key Biscayne or up the bay toward Star Island.
If you'd prefer to board from a different location, that's possible too — as long as it has suitable dockage access for the Leopard 53. Just let us know where you'd like to start, and we'll arrange it. The transit time to reach your chosen spot is billed as part of your charter time, so we recommend planning ahead to make the most of your hours on the water.
