Everything You Need for an Unforgettable Bahamas Yacht Charter Experience
Every charter we run is 100% private. When you book with Bahamas Yacht, the vessel belongs entirely to your group from the moment you step aboard to the moment you return to the dock. No strangers, no shared tours, no compromises on where you go or what you do. Our fleet includes luxury sailing catamarans, sleek motor yachts, and large group vessels ranging from 56 feet to 100 feet, giving us the flexibility to match every group size and every occasion. Whether you are planning a half day cruise to Rose Island, a full day adventure to Exuma, or something in between, our team builds the experience entirely around you. Take a look at our full fleet page to see all available vessels and starting rates, then reach out to us and we will match you with the right yacht for your day.
Food tastes better on the water and our fleet proves it. Many of the vessels in our collection come with private chefs who prepare fresh gourmet meals throughout the day using quality local ingredients. Think grilled lobster with garlic butter, local mahi mahi with mango lime sauce, Brazilian picanha steak, fresh fruit, seasonal sides, and a chef surprise dessert to finish the day. Other vessels include lighter spreads of snacks, fruit platters, and refreshments that are perfect for casual day charters. A few of our more budget friendly options allow guests to bring their own food and drinks on board as well. Whatever the situation, we will always be clear about what catering is included when we send you a quote so there are no surprises. For guests with dietary restrictions or custom menu requests, just let us know and we will do our best to accommodate.
A private yacht charter in Nassau is one of the most impressive and effective ways to entertain clients, reward a team, or host a company celebration. There is no conference room in the world that can compete with the backdrop of the Bahamas from the deck of a private yacht. Our fleet includes vessels that can accommodate small executive groups all the way up to large corporate gatherings of 60 or more guests. We can work with you on custom menus, branded experiences, entertainment options, and any specific requirements your event calls for. Whether you are planning a client day out on the water, a team building experience, or an annual company party, our team handles the logistics so yours can focus on the people you are hosting. Reach out through our contact page and we will put together a proposal built around your group and your goals.
The Bahamas is one of the most photogenic places on earth and a day on a private yacht gives you the kind of moments worth capturing properly. We can arrange professional photographers, videographers, and drone operators to document your entire charter from start to finish. Having a dedicated photography team on board means you and your guests can stay fully present and enjoy every moment while someone else handles the camera. Whether you are celebrating a wedding, a birthday, a proposal, an anniversary, or simply want to bring home something far better than a phone photo, our photography add on delivers a collection of high quality images and footage that will last a lifetime. Photography and videography services are booked separately from the charter and availability is limited, so we recommend requesting this add on as early as possible when you contact us to plan your charter.
The right music transforms a great day into a legendary one. Most of the yachts in our fleet come equipped with high quality sound systems that connect to your own playlist via Bluetooth, so the soundtrack to your day is always in your hands. For groups that want to take the energy further, we can arrange dedicated DJ services, live music, themed setups, and entertainment packages tailored to your occasion. Whether you are hosting a bachelorette party that needs to keep the energy high from noon to sunset, a birthday bash with a specific vibe in mind, or a corporate event that could use a curated atmosphere, we have connections to the right talent to make it work aboard your chosen vessel. Entertainment add ons are quoted separately and we recommend mentioning this when you first reach out so we have enough lead time to make the right arrangements. Have questions about what is possible? Visit our FAQ page for more details or send us a message directly.
Snorkeling gear is included on every vessel in our fleet as a standard item, because the waters we cruise through deserve to be explored properly. Our most popular snorkeling destination is Green Cay at Rose Island, home to a large resident family of sea turtles that guests can swim with in completely natural conditions. No crowds, no tanks, no tour groups — just clear water, tropical fish, vibrant coral, and sea turtles swimming right beside you. Beyond Rose Island, guests on longer charters can explore the underwater world of the Exuma Cays, including the famous sunken plane near Norman's Cay which sits shallow enough for snorkelers to explore without scuba gear. Sharks, iguanas, and the world famous swimming pigs round out the Exuma experience for guests who make the journey. All of these snorkeling adventures are available as part of your private charter itinerary. Browse our fleet options to find the right vessel for your group, or contact us to start planning.
At Bahamas Yacht, everything we do is built around giving your group the most exceptional day on the water possible. We are not a large agency and we are not a booking platform. We are a small, hands on team with deep knowledge of the Bahamas, the yachts in our fleet, and the captains who operate them. That means when you reach out to us, you are talking to people who genuinely know the answers to your questions and care about getting the experience right for you. Whether you are planning a quick half day cruise to Rose Island or a full week of island hopping across the Bahamas, we are here to help you put together something worth talking about.
Our services go well beyond simply putting you on a boat. From the moment you first contact us, we are working to understand what your group needs, what your occasion calls for, and what level of luxury fits your budget. We handle the vessel selection, help you plan your itinerary, coordinate any add ons you want, and make sure everything is in place before your charter day arrives. If you have questions about anything along the way, our FAQ page has answers to over 50 of the most common questions we receive.
Nassau sits at the center of one of the most beautiful island chains in the world and the possibilities for exploration are genuinely endless. Rose Island and Green Cay are just 20 minutes away and consistently rank among the most memorable experiences any guest has ever had, thanks in large part to the resident sea turtles at Green Cay that guests can snorkel with in the wild. For guests who want to go further, the Exuma Cays offer the world famous swimming pigs, nurse sharks at Compass Cay, iguanas at Allan's Cay, and the mystery of Pablo Escobar's sunken plane near Norman's Cay. Spanish Wells, Harbor Island, the Berry Islands, and Staniel Cay are all reachable on select vessels in our fleet. Whatever direction you want to go, our captains know the best spots and our team will help you build an itinerary that makes the most of your time on the water. Browse our yacht fleet to see which vessels reach which destinations.
We have hosted intimate romantic getaways for couples, wild bachelorette celebrations for groups of 30, family reunion cruises, corporate client entertainment days, wedding ceremonies on the water, and everything in between. The one thing every single charter has in common is that it was 100% private and built entirely around the group aboard. That is what makes a Bahamas Yacht charter different from a tour. You are not on someone else's schedule. You are not sharing the space with strangers. The vessel is yours from start to finish, and our crew is there to take care of you and only you for the entire day. Ready to plan yours? Contact us here and we will get started.
Our fully all inclusive vessels feature private chefs who prepare fresh meals throughout the charter, with menus that often include grilled lobster, local mahi mahi, seasonal Bahamian produce, and gourmet desserts. Open bar packages on these vessels typically include a full selection of premium spirits, signature cocktails, local beer, wine, champagne, and non alcoholic options. For vessels with lighter inclusions, guests are often welcome to bring their own food and beverages or request a provisioning service. We will always tell you exactly what is and is not included before you book.
We can arrange professional DJ services, live music, drone and camera photography and videography, custom decorations for birthdays and anniversaries, specialty cakes, champagne toasts, floral arrangements, and more. These services are all quoted separately from the charter rate and require advance notice to arrange properly. The earlier you let us know what you want, the better we can deliver it. Visit our frequently asked questions page for more details on what add ons are available, or reach out to us directly and we will talk through the options for your specific occasion.
There are few wedding venues in the world more stunning than the deck of a private yacht with turquoise Bahamian water all around you. We work with couples and event planners to coordinate everything from the vessel selection and ceremony setup to catering, photography, and guest management. Whether you are planning an intimate ceremony for 10 people or a larger celebration aboard one of our big group vessels, our team is experienced in making events on the water run beautifully. Reach out early so we can hold the right vessel for your date and begin coordinating all the details.
