Overview

Let's go Sailing! 
Experience Miami's Biscayne Bay aboard one of Cool Destinations Beneteau stylish vessels in the company of experienced, but mostly fun, well traveled, passionate captains.
A Private Sailing tour aboard Cool Destinations vessels on the Miami Bay (called Biscayne Bay) is a unique experience. The perfect combination of unobstructed oceanic winds and lake like shoals makes this the perfect place to check sailing off your bucket list, or even better, introduce you to this wonderful sport/leisure activity!

Miami (pass by)

Miami has developed into a big, modern city and its ever changing sophisticated skyline is wonderful by day or night. We will pass under the Rickenbacker Bridge that connects Virginia Key and Key Biscayne to Miami and approach Brickell, the Miami River and Downtown, with vistas of Miami's waterfront, the Port and Fisher Island.

Historic Virginia Key Beach Park

On either side of the Rickenbacker bridge there are good anchorage areas where you can go for a swim, paddleboard or just relax and enjoy the amazing vistas of the city from the bay. In the meantime, we will barbecue some mean skirt steaks*, or teach you some paddle boarding techniques*. A 4 hour charter will allow for this.

Elliott Key

Elliott Key, in Biscayne National Park, Florida is the largest key in the park and is the northernmost of the true Florida Keys. It's located east of Homestead, Florida. Elliott Key is popular for boating adventures. The Elliott Key Sandbar, or Sands cut, is one of Miami's most popular boating attractions, but is big enough to let us stay away from crowds and loud unpleasant music. It is a great area for swimming, snorkeling, paddleboarding and sunbathing on deck. Please note that Elliott Key is 18 Nautical Miles South of our departure at Coconut Grove, so allow for an 8 hour experience to include this option.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Private Sailing on the Miami Bay – Biscayne Bay?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
