Azimut Grande 88ft Yacht Charter Miami — From $13,000/8hr

Why Charter the Azimut Grande 88ft in Miami

This is the yacht you book when only the biggest and boldest will do. At 88 feet with space for up to 13 guests, the Azimut Grande 88ft dominates Biscayne Bay in a way smaller boats simply can't match — whether you're throwing a birthday party that demands a flybridge dance floor or hosting clients who need to be impressed before the deal closes.

Local hosts book this vessel for milestone celebrations that call for serious scale. A 40th birthday cruise past Star Island, a bachelorette party that wants to anchor at the Key Biscayne sandbar with the jet ski ready, a family reunion that spans three generations — this yacht carries it all with room to spare. The flybridge alone gives you an upper deck with seating and a helm, meaning your group splits between sunbathing up top and lounging below without ever feeling crowded.

Corporate entertainment hits differently on an 88ft yacht. When you're hosting clients for a sunset run from Bayside to Fisher Island, the sheer presence of this vessel sets the tone before anyone says a word. GQ Concierge handles the logistics — captain, crew, fuel, insurance — so you focus on the handshake and the skyline. For content creators, the 88ft profile is pure Miami: sleek lines, a jet ski on deck, and the city skyline as your backdrop. We coordinate the exact marina when you book, and same-day charters are available via WhatsApp or Telegram.

Azimut Grande 88ft Specifications

Here are the verified specs for the Azimut Grande 88ft, straight from our charter database. Every charter includes the captain, crew, fuel, and insurance — you step aboard and we handle the rest.

What sets this yacht apart on Miami waters is the combination of size and amenities. The 88ft length gives you serious presence at any marina, while the flybridge offers a second social deck that most charters in this class simply don't have. The included jet ski turns any anchorage into a playground — guests can take turns riding while the rest of the group watches from the deck. This is a day-charter vessel built for maximum enjoyment on the water, not for overnight stays, so every square foot is dedicated to the cruising experience.

Charter Packages & Pricing

The Azimut Grande 88ft is available for charter starting at $13,000 for a 8-hour minimum charter.

Every charter includes the captain and crew, fuel, insurance, snorkeling gear, and a cooler stocked with ice. You bring the group, we bring everything else. The $13,000 rate covers the full 8-hour day — no surprises on board, no extra charges for the jet ski or the flybridge.

Please note that the price above is the charter rate only. Florida sales tax of 7% and a customary crew gratuity of 15-20% are added at checkout. We keep this transparent so you know exactly what to expect before you confirm your booking.

GQ Concierge Add-On Services

GQ Concierge is a full-service luxury concierge company, not just a yacht rental. That means your charter can be as simple or as elaborate as you want it to be — and we handle every detail from the moment you reach out.

Add a professional photographer to your charter and we'll capture every moment from boarding at the marina to the golden-hour sunset. Your group will have gallery-quality images of the day without anyone holding a phone. For something even more cinematic, book our drone videographer — aerial footage of the 88ft Azimut gliding across Biscayne Bay with the Miami skyline rising behind it makes for content that stops the scroll.

Food and drink elevate any charter, and our private chef & catering service brings the restaurant to you. Choose from champagne and charcuterie spreads for a sunset cruise, or a full gourmet meal prepared on board while you anchor off Key Biscayne. We work with Miami's best caterers to match your menu to the occasion.

Getting to the marina should feel as luxurious as the day itself. Our VIP transfer service picks you up from your hotel or Airbnb in a Cadillac Escalade, Mercedes Sprinter, or Rolls-Royce — you arrive relaxed and on time, we handle the rest. Need flowers, birthday decorations, or a custom setup on board? Just ask. Tell us your vision via WhatsApp and we'll handle every detail.

Miami Charter Routes & Destinations

Miami is a city built for the water, and the Azimut Grande 88ft is the perfect way to experience it. Here are the four most popular routes our clients choose, each offering a different flavor of the Magic City.

Biscayne Bay & Star Island Cruise. This is the classic Miami yacht route. You'll glide past the celebrity homes of Star Island and Fisher Island while the downtown skyline towers in the distance. The 88ft yacht gives you the height and presence to see everything, and the flybridge offers the best vantage point on the bay. Your captain will point out the notable estates as you cruise at a relaxed pace.

Key Biscayne Sandbar. For a day of swimming and sun, this is the destination. The captain anchors in the shallow, crystal-clear water off Key Biscayne, and the jet ski becomes the star of the show. Guests take turns riding while others snorkel with the included gear or float in the calm bay. It's the most laid-back way to spend your 8 hours on the water.

Miami Beach & Government Cut. This route takes you past the iconic South Beach coastline and out toward Government Cut, where you'll watch massive cruise ships depart the Port of Miami. The contrast between your private 88ft yacht and those floating cities is part of the fun. The captain will find the best spot to pause and watch the action.

Sunset Cruise from Bayside to Fisher Island. For a truly memorable evening, time your departure from Bayside for the golden hour. As the sun drops behind the Miami skyline, the city lights begin to flicker on, and the water turns to gold. This is the route for proposals, anniversaries, and any moment that deserves a cinematic backdrop.

Best Occasions for Azimut Grande 88ft Charter

With space for 13 guests, the Azimut Grande 88ft fits a specific sweet spot — big enough for a real party, intimate enough that no one feels lost in the crowd. Here's who books this yacht and why.

Birthdays. A milestone birthday deserves a milestone setting. The flybridge becomes a dance floor, the jet ski adds an adrenaline break, and the Miami skyline provides the backdrop. We've hosted 30th, 40th, and 50th birthday celebrations that guests still talk about years later.

Bachelorette & Bachelor Parties. This is one of our most popular bookings for the Azimut Grande. The group gets the full day together on the water, with swimming at the sandbar, jet ski rides, and champagne on the flybridge. The size of the yacht means the whole crew stays together — no splitting up.

Corporate Events & Client Entertainment. When you need to impress, an 88ft yacht does the talking. Host clients for a working lunch anchored off Star Island, or close the deal with a sunset cruise past the skyline. The professional crew ensures everything runs smoothly while you focus on business.

Anniversaries. A private charter for two on an 88ft yacht is the ultimate romantic gesture. With 13 guests allowed, you'll have the entire vessel to yourselves — the captain and crew give you space while the scenery does the work.

Family Reunions. Multi-generational groups fit comfortably on this yacht. Grandparents relax on the main deck while the younger crowd takes the jet ski or jumps off the swim platform. The 8-hour charter gives you plenty of time to catch up without the distractions of land.

Content Creation & Photoshoots. The 88ft profile, the flybridge, and the Miami skyline make this yacht a content machine. Book our photographer or drone videographer and you'll walk away with a portfolio of images that capture the day perfectly.

Boarding takes place at a designated marina — we coordinate the exact location when you book. Miami offers several excellent departure points, and we'll match you with the one that best suits your route and your group's needs.

Our standard marinas include Miami Beach Marina, Bayside Marketplace, Island Gardens Deep Harbour, Coconut Grove Marina, and Sunset Harbour. Each offers a different starting point — Bayside puts you right in the heart of the action, while Island Gardens Deep Harbour is a favorite for its easy access to Biscayne Bay and the homes of Star Island.

Boarding at a different location is possible if it has suitable dockage access. The transit time to reach it is billed as charter time and must be arranged with GQ in advance. We'll confirm the details when you book so there are no surprises on the day of your charter.

Compare Similar Yachts

The table below compares the Azimut Grande 88ft with two other 88ft yachts in our fleet. We've included both the entry price and the per-hour rate, since a direct price comparison isn't fair when one yacht has a 4-hour minimum and another requires an 8-hour charter. The per-hour rate gives you the true cost comparison.

The Azimut Grande 88ft Is Not Right For You If:

• You're looking for a lower hourly rate on an 88ft yacht — the Princess 88ft comes in at $1,425/hr versus $1,625/hr for the Azimut, and its 4-hour minimum makes it a more flexible option for shorter outings.
• You need a 4-hour charter window rather than a full 8-hour day — the Princess 88ft starts at $5,700 for 4 hours, which suits a tighter schedule.
• You're planning a shorter day and want a higher-spec option with the same 13-guest capacity — the Sirena 88ft offers a 4-hour minimum at $8,900, though at a higher hourly rate of $2,225.
