Miami Charter Routes & Destinations

Miami's waterways are your playground, and the Scout 530 LXF 53ft is the perfect vessel to explore them. Here are the four most popular routes our guests book:

1. Biscayne Bay & Star Island Cruise

Glide past the mansions of Star Island, where you'll spot celebrity homes and mega-yachts. The Miami skyline rises behind you, creating a backdrop that never gets old. This route is ideal for a first-time visitor who wants the full Miami experience.

2. Key Biscayne Sandbar

Anchor in the shallow, crystal-clear water off Key Biscayne and jump in for a swim. The sandbar is a social hotspot on weekends — you'll see other boats, but your 13-guest crew will have plenty of space. Snorkeling gear is included, so explore the seagrass beds and maybe spot a starfish.

3. Miami Beach & Government Cut

Cruise along the South Beach coastline, then head out through Government Cut to watch massive cruise ships depart the Port of Miami. The ocean swells here are gentle, and you'll get a unique perspective of the city from the water.

4. Sunset Cruise from Bayside to Fisher Island

Set off from Bayside Marketplace as the sun begins to dip. Cruise past the iconic skyline, then around Fisher Island as the sky turns orange and pink. This is the most romantic option — perfect for anniversaries or proposals.
