Did you realize that August is almost over here? That means the last weeks of summer in Miami are coming to an end. There is still enough time to create a few more summer memories without any tedious planning. Whether it be spending time with the family, having fun with friends, or relaxing by the sight of the sunset, South Beach Party Boats has a charter that will make your transition into the new fall routine smooth. Here are five great ways to end summer.

1. All – Ages Snorkel & Splash

Spending time with the family on a snorkeling excursion is a moment to remember. Kids love splashing in the water or jumping off the water trampolines. Plus the boat is equipped with snorkels and masks and life vests to see the beauty under the sea. The trip includes unlimited snacks and soda, while $3 beer and wine is available to adults. This is a great photo opportunity for lasting family portraits or just the latest live story on your Instagram feed! On a sunny afternoon, the Biscayne marketplace turns into water adventure kids crave and will be telling their friends all about when they return to school. Let your kid live and experience a family friendly water adventure.

2. Private Charter

Celebrate your special events this year by booking a private charter. Let’s celebrate on a yacht, whether a wedding, birthday celebration or a corporate retreat. The private charter will be a hit with all  your friends, family and colleagues and friends will be impressed by your choice of venue and will be talking about it at the office. Give us a call direct to see what we can do to make it extra special.

3. Island Boat Party with BBQ

Gather all your friends and venture out onto an island, where you’ll have a beach day all planned out. Unlimited beer, wine, and soda, with snacks and grilled burgers at your service. The sandy shores and palm trees are sure to set the tone a memorable end of summer festivities.

Get your last summer selfies and celebrate the beginning of something new. Divide your fun from chilling on the beach, mingling in ultimate water sports, and being the life of the party on the deck as the DJ spins the record. You will never have a dull moment at this all-inclusive island party.

4. Play Water Sports

5. Key Biscayne Sunset Sail

Last but not least, the best way to end summer is to cruise on the Key Biscayne Sunset Sail. The Sunset Sail through Key Biscayne creates the perfecdt backdrop of a romantic evening for two or perhaps a pre-dinner sailing trip to kick off a girls trip. You will sail through the eastern coast of Florida to see Downtown Miami in a new way. Sip complimentary champagne as the sun sets in to forget all your worries and offer you a chance at new beginnings. The city of Miami is filled with magic and is truly unforgettable. Allow the sun to radiate its warmth as the winds and soothing waves make peace with summer and fall.

Book Your Key Biscayne Sunset Sail 

A Downtown Miami sunset is an extraordinary and scenic sight to gaze upon, especially when viewing from a luxurious sailing catamaran overlooking the heart of Miami. Who needs a movie when there is all this beauty around?

There are a multitude of yachts and other boats that flood the Bayside Marketplace’s dock, but the Caribbean Spirit stood out with its pristine red and white exterior. The catamaran is a large and very comfortable yacht with grand, high sails were hard to miss that birds found a peaceful resting spot.

Following the safety precautions from the captains, we sailed away from the Marina and walked onto the beautiful white deck. We were greeted by smiling bystanders on other boats, to whom we waved excitedly back to.

Cruising through Downtown Miami

As we passed the prestigious Miami hotel, the Intercontinental, the sun began to show itself. It peeked from behind the clouds, while a rainbow formed toward the outer edges. Guests onboard surrounded the left of the deck to get alluring photographs. The calming island reggae music set the tone while the relaxing winds swept across our faces. Joyfully, we gazed at the serenity and immersed ourselves in the peace that surrounded us.

Sunset Sailing off the Eastern Coast of Florida

The sun was slowly revealed as it moved across the horizon. A pop sound signaled champagne bottles being opened by the boat crew as complimentary glasses of the bubbly were passed. We were now watching the sunset in true Miami style. The Cruise continued towards the direction of the sun.

The charter passed by an open ocean where we could see the sun tucking beneath the horizon, gleaming its radiant reflection upon the waters.

We returned to the Marina, presented by a well-lit festive marketplace of vibrant restaurants and live music. It was the perfect Saturday night to grab a bite to eat and enjoy the live music at Bayside.

Itinerary:

• Check in 15 Minutes Prior to Trip Departure
• 2 Hour Sail Enjoying Sights and Sunset
• Complimentary Soda, Snacks, and Glass of Champagne
• Return to Dock
• (Schedule may vary, please refer to your booking confirmation)

Book Your Key Biscayne Sunset Sail 

Enjoy Miami as you’ve never seen it before! Listen to some music and sip champagne as you relax in the nets or watch from the cabin. We offer $3 Beer and Wine as well as with complementary soft drinks and appetizers during the Trip. As the sunsets, the skyline turns on and we enjoy the beauty of the bay. The entire trip, you are able to move freely around the boat, walk around the decks and find the perfect picture backdrop. Sail into the night, relax to the motion of the ocean, and watch the as lights illuminate the night.

You haven’t fished for your boating outfit yet, did you? And America’s birthday is just around the corner, too. Look, I know it’s late, but you still have plenty of time to piece together an outfit that makes you shine out in the sun and water. It doesn’t matter what your personality or style is, right below are some ideas you can use to get you looking right.

Classic & Cool – Keep it Simple: Starting from the Top

Sun rays are beaming and it’s going to be scorching hot so let’s find the perfect pair of sunglasses with a cute hat to keep your face from melting. Add a pair of denim shorts and a cool shirt and you can’t be hot and bothered, even in Miami. Mix and match, but keep it classic and minimize your accessories. This way you won’t have to worry about losing an earring.

Versatility – Body Goals

Want to save some coins? Cop a one-piece swimsuit. Put on a pair of boyfriend jeans or shorts on top of your suit and volia! You’ve got yourself an insta-outfit. By doing this, your day look effortlessly turns into an evening look, which takes your style from boat to shore. You’ll be comfy while watching the fireworks.

Sundress

A summertime staple — light, airy and easy to put on. When you decide to get in the water, you can quickly take off the dress overhead and put it back on later in no time.

And fellas, can’t forget about you guys…

But you can still look festive. Shorts and button down tops will help catch the winds from the sailing all day until the fireworks. Boating shoes are ideal for walking along the dock so that you will not slip when the floor is wet.

All in all, the Fourth of July is all about celebration. And with these ideas, you are sure to be the life of the party — stylish and comfortable.
