Private Sunset Yacht Cruise in Miami
There is a moment in Miami, just before the sun goes down, when the towers of Downtown and Brickell turn gold and the water of Biscayne Bay goes still and pink. The best seat for it is the deck of your own yacht. OREA Miami arranges private sunset yacht cruises in Miami: no crowded tour boat, no fixed route, just your group, a licensed captain and crew, and the skyline at golden hour.
Every sunset cruise is all-inclusive. Captain and crew, fuel, soft drinks, the standard crew gratuity and taxes are already in the price. Our concierge team can add champagne, a dinner menu, florals or a photographer, so the evening is ready the moment you step on board.

A suggested sunset itinerary
A 4-hour sunset cruise usually starts in the late afternoon. Here is a typical evening, adjusted to your departure:
- Late afternoon boarding.Board in Brickell, Downtown, on the Miami River or at the Venetian Islands for skyline views from the first minute, or in Coconut Grove for a leafy, relaxed start.
- Afternoon swim.Anchor somewhere calm while the sun is still warm. From the Grove, Key Biscayne and Stiltsville are close; from the Venetian Islands, a quiet spot off Miami Beach.
- Star Island and Fisher Island.Cruise past the waterfront homes and out toward South Pointe, where the bay meets the ocean.
- Golden hour on the bay.Position in front of the skyline as the sun sets behind the city. Champagne glasses up, the photographer at work.
- Blue hour and city lights.Cruise back as the towers light up, then head straight to dinner. Our concierge team can hold the table.
