Fun Charters Miami

This experience was AMAZING! I rented the Azimut 50 on April 19, 2014 for me and 9 other friends and it was the best birthday party I’ve ever had! My guests loved it so much they were all planning a quarterly event like this and we all vowed we wouldn’t go with any other company but with Captain Jeff and his crew! Their service was IMPECCABLE. They were so nice and outgoing and fun from the start, they made sure everything was perfect for us: Captain Jeff actually grilling our lunch for us (what?! I never would’ve expected him to do that! He even took orders on how we liked our steaks!), the first mate mixing drinks and shots (that were DELICIOUS), bringing cushions out to us when we gathered on the front of the boat, diving in the water after them when they fell in the water lol, cleaning the dishes we brought food in, heating up our dip and serving it, etc…
Their service was so good, even tho gratuity is included in the price they quoted me, my friends each wanted to give the captain and the first mate a tip.
The only thing that made me nervous was that leading up to the trip, they were so busy, communication wasn’t as quick as I would like and I’m naturally a paranoid, worried person. But DO NOT WORRY. They are GREAT and have everything taken care of!
Captain Jeff even trusted me to not pay my balance that day and he would send me an invoice. It seemed like my friends and the captain/​first mate were all old friends.
We cruised, we docked at a sandbar for lunch and time with the jetski, Jeff even took my scaredy cat friend out on the jetski to give her a little tutorial before she tried it on her own. So sweet! Photos came out wonderfully, weather was great even tho I was worried, Jeff reassured me the day before and he was right. You should celebrate on a yacht with this company!

At the very start I would say that I seldom write reviews however our experience with Capt. Jeff and Katrina was absolutely awesome so I think it is worth sharing. I went to Miami with my girlfriend and 4 close friends and we wanted to do something special/​memorable for my birthday. I spoke with Katrina on the phone and not only she provided all the details on the boat but also gave us ideas on how we can best spend our time, get food and drinks from a local store close-​by which was very useful. Upon arrival Jeff helped us with getting a paddle board and asked many questions so that we could have the best experience during our cruise. We went around different islands and also docked several times to swim. If you are looking to do something other than South Beach this is one of the best ways to spend time in Miami. All in all it was a great experience and will absolutely do it again next time we are in Miami. I wish both Jeff and Katrina the very best on their venture.

We went down to Miami for a wedding and decided to spend a couple extra days to hang out with friends and see Miami. We did an afternoon charter with Fun Charters Miami and had an absolute blast!
When we arrived we were so impressed with the boat and crew. The yacht had more than enough room for our group. Captain Jeff and Katerina made us feel at home right away. Before we even left the dock Katerina made sure we had a drink in our hands and Jeff answered all our questions. We didn’t know the area so we left it up to Fun Charters on where to take us. They took us out along the the beach and around Miami, pointing out interesting sites and landmarks along the way. We had the music going and drinks flowing! Then they took us to a little island where we all jumped into the water to swim! So fun!
The charter really made our trip. They were very professional while making sure everyone is having fun and providing the Miami experience we were looking for. They even gave us tips on hot spots to check out on land. I hope to go back to Miami soon and I will definitely use Fun Charters Miami again.

We rented a yacht with Fun Time Charters for 8 hours for 8 people this past weekend and had a great time. Katerina and Jeff were both very professional (good communications in making arrangements, clear pricing, on time) and very nice throughout the day. They know the area really well and knew just where to take our particular group and show us a great time. In our case, they took us to the party scene at the sand bar and gave us an inflatable island that was the hit of the party. Jeff was great about explaining local landmarks and activities and Katerina was really attentive in making drinks for everyone, tidying up the boat, etc. At the end of the day they took us tubing, which was a blast. Katerina even took some pictures and videos of us and emailed them to me later. There were no surprise charges and they were right on time and easy to find (which I’ve heard is not the case for some other companies). I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or recommend them to friends.

Was down in Miami for Spring Break and booked a charter as the icing of the cake of our week vacation…
Definitely did not regret the splurge! Had an amazing time! The boat was gorgeous and obviously well cared for. Jeff and Katerina were such great hosts! Captain Jeff was friendly and so patient in answering all our boating questions! While Katerina took great care of us below deck, being super attentive! We went out to the sand bank and went out on the Jet skies! Katerina was kind enough to let me borrow some sunglasses while I was on the jet skies to that I could actually see while still feeling the spray of salt water on my face :) Thank you again! We were also on the look out for Dolphins! Sadly, that was not to be but there is always next time!
All in all it was a truly amazing experience. The next time I am in Miami I look forward to booking again!

Excellent! I am a recent South Beach local that often has friends visiting from my home town that can not wait to step on a big boat! It is a must when in Miami. The ultimate experience of luxury on the water. Champagne flowing, ladies in bikinis, and endless sightseeing this area has to offer.
My friends and I have charted with Captain Jeff and Katerina several times in the past year and a half. We have fed the raccoons at «Raccoon Island», BBQ’ed at Monument Island, watched fireworks at Bayside, toured around Star Island, sighted the rich and famous on their yachts, jet ski with dolphins among a few things and this year are looking forward to taking out first trip to Bahamas.
My friends and I are immensely impressed with Fun Charters Miami team and have since recommended them without reservations to our friends and colleagues. Captain Jeff holds a prestigious license of a captain and has governed boats of impressive magnitude. Katerina goes above and beyond to make certain all the guests are having an amazing experience. Professional, reliable and friendly. They individualize every experience based on your interests. Give them a try today.

I’ve went on a few charter cruises in Miami over the past few years, and would definitely say that my best experience was with Jeff and Katerina of Fun Charters Miami. All of my experiences (including other charters) have been adequate. But Jeff and Katerina go over and above to make sure that everyone aboard has fun. They have a lot of experience and ‘local knowledge’ that make the trip memorable. I suggest a trip to Monument Island or down to the Biscayne sandbar to feed the almost-​tame racoons at a local island.

Highly Recommended!
My friends and I got the absolute VIP treatment last year during Ultra Music Festival. Captain Jeff and Katerina took us over to Bayside and after the concert threw us the best after-​party (not even mentioning dropping us off right next to our hotel at the end of the night, which made us feel like celebrities). Our 4 hour charter turned into a full day of fun on the water with Fun Charters Miami! Can’t wait to do it again this year!

I can’t imagine this person being sincere in her/​his review (prior review). We were taken to a sand bar, given extra time, Jeff and Katrina were very professional and fun and me and my wife had the best day. The captain gave us a tour of «star island» and showed us all the celebrity houses, Katrina showed us how to use a jet ski and went out of her way to feed all the guests that forgot to bring food.
By the way, I checked their credentials and Jeff is a captain and Katrina a steward.
No doubt they know what they are doing! Give them a try and you will not regret it!!!
