"To really see Miami, you must get out on the water!"
If you follow this often dispensed local's advice - and be assured: it's a great advice you won't be sorry to obey! - and book a day yacht charter, you're in for a spectacular experience.
Just imagine cruising the crystal waters of Biscayne Bay and Florida Keys, exploring the Bahamas and Caribbean islands... They say that South Florida, enclosed by its azure waters, is just enchanting as a picture of scenic beauty and serenity when you're watching from aboard the yacht charter or a boat.
Yacht charters offer you an opportunity to spend an unforgettable sun-filled, seawater-drenched day. An experience of a lifetime is guaranteed, whether you are looking for something extravagant, or an intimate event is more up your alley.
Let your dreams come true, whether they include exploring the Biscayne Bay or the ocean, or relaxing along the Inter-coastal waterway. You can go swimming or snorkeling in the crystal waters of South Florida, jet ski near a tropical island, celebrate an event like a birthday, anniversary, proposal - or even a wedding.
Getting married in a private ceremony on a yacht is becoming increasingly popular for those wanting a more nontraditional but memorable experience. The super producer Pharrell Williams recently got married on a private yacht with a few close friends and family.
While we're on a subject of celebrities, they can be often seen aboard luxury yachts: starlets sunbathing, and millionares fishing in the rich waters. Navigating around Star Island, you will sail past the luxury residences of celebrities like Shaquille O'Neal, Rosie O'donnell,... or Al Capone, for instance.
Miami is one of the greatest cities in the world to party, and it can't get better than partying aboard the luxury yacht!
All you have to do is sit back and relax; an experienced crew is there to cater to your any need. That day is for you to enjoy!
Day yacht charter may even surpass your wildest dreams and expectations: enjoy luxury and comfort, excellent professional customer service, exceptional cuisine. It's a memory you are sure to cherish for years.
In Miami, you can find charters and cruises tailored to your desires. You can choose from a dazzlingly rich array of yachts: there are luxury yacht, sport yachts, fishing yachts, and even mega yachts. Boats include a selection of sport boats, power boats and party boats!

Packing for a Cruise Trip
Packing for a cruise or any trip for that matter is something most of us dread. There are plenty of things that we need to take care of and yes, it can turn out to be really challenging. So, if you're in a fix, take a look at the following points and it would probably help you out a bit:
How much space do you have?
You should know that on cruises space is usually limited especially if you're going on one of the inner cabins. Therefore you should only take with you what's really essential. Also, take a look at the itinerary of what the cruise ship is going to supply you with, why carry what you're going to get anyway?
Pack the essentials first
No matter what the cruise is, you should make sure that you carry the essentials with you such as undergarments, a pair of jeans maybe? Sunglasses and other creams that you use to protect yourself from the sun are also a necessity
If there's a pool on the ship then you should make sure that you carry swimwear so that you would be able to enjoy yourself in the pool while you travel along.
Any excursions planned?
There are plenty of things that you're going to be doing when on the ship as well as off the ship. Cruises aren't just rides on the boat you know. Therefore, you should plan as to what you're going to do when you get out for excursions as well.
No matter where you're going you would need the right clothing and footwear, and that's definitely something you shouldn't compromise on.
Maybe you're just going to be checking out bars and places to eat, in that case you may need formal wear as some restaurants won't allow you in when dressed in jeans and other informal clothing.
Documents
You need to make sure that you carry all the documents that you need for the trip. Ask your guides what would be needed; create a list and strike of items as you pack them in.
One of the most important documents that people often forget is their ticket itself! So, along with your passport, visas and other documents see to it that the ticket is placed in a safe, yet easy to reach spot so that you could show it to anyone who needs it.
On the whole cruises are fun, so have fun and don't worry about the packing too much.

Florida Has 5 of the Top Cruise Cities in the United States
There are now five cruise ports in Florida, with four located on
the east coast. When choosing a location to cruise from, obviously
location plays a great deal into your decision. The closer you can
originate your to your targeted destination, not only will you sail
there quicker but all things being equal at a lesser cost. And even
though cruise ships from multiple Florida cruise cities may go to
similar points, Miami will probably be closer to your destination. Each
location, however can give a unique experience.
1. Miami. Many call this the cruise capital of the world, as from here you can cover the entire Caribbean, perhaps the most popular cruise destination in the world. From Miami you can also get to the Bahamas for a long weekend getaway of two, three or four days on a number of different lines.
Miami is ideal for getting to the eastern Caribbean, as it is closest to these islands from anywhere in the United States. Plus the small eastern Caribbean islands are closely bunched together, meaning less sailing time and more shore time. These cruises typically last from five to twelve days. Western Caribbean might be slightly longer, and includes some great Mexican locations along with Jamaica.
Other destinations you can reach from Miami include the Panama Canal and then onto the Pacific ports in Mexico and California, plus South America. There are also cruises across the Atlantic to Europe.
2. Ft. Lauderdale. Some of the most popular Caribbean itineraries depart from Fort Lauderdale. Also known as Port Everglades, this is a great place to spend some time before and after the cruise. Ft. Lauderdale is really a gem of a place to visit.
3. Port Canaveral. A popular destination to start a Caribbean, Bahamas or Transatlantic cruise. Carnival Cruises were one of the first to see the benefits of cruising out of the central Florida port, and it is now used by Disney Cruises to couple their Disney World vacations with a Disney cruise.
4. Tampa. You will have easy access to the Caribbean from this accessible Florida Port. Carnival, Holland America, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Lines offer four, five, seven and fourteen day cruises from here. Although this port is far from the largest as far as activity, it is developing into one of the most customer-friendly. It is next to a complex offering dining, shopping and an IMAX theater, in addition to the Florida Aquarium.
5. Jacksonville. There are four, five and seven day cruises from here, and due to its proximity to the Bahamas a great deal of the cruises will go there. Jacksonville is also the hub of northern Florida and has a great many attractions before you board.
