Looking for a party boat in Fort Lauderdale where nobody has to drive?
Pick a yacht or a pontoon, bring your crew, and a licensed captain handles the helm and the docking while your group handles the celebrating.
Party boat Fort Lauderdale trips are private, your group only, with room for up to 13 guests on the yachts.
Book directly online or call (954) 612-0030.
A party boat with us is not a seat on a shared cruise. The whole boat is booked for your group, so the guest list, the pace and the stops are yours to set. A licensed captain drives, and your group shows up ready to celebrate.
Most people planning a Fort Lauderdale boat party want three answers first: which boat fits the crew, what it costs and who is at the helm.
This page covers all three. Yachts hold up to 13 guests, and pontoons are the lower-cost option, with guest limits that vary by boat.
From the dock, the day can run down the Intracoastal past the waterfront homes, anchor at a sandbar for a swim, or finish at a waterfront restaurant. Want a calmer, sightseeing-first outing instead? Read our guide to boat tours in Fort Lauderdale.

A yacht gives a bigger group real space to spread out. The 2022 52 ft Schaefer flybridge, the 50 ft Azimut and the 50 ft Sundancer each carry up to 13 guests, with open deck room for lounging in the sun while the boat cruises the Intracoastal.
Ask the captain to anchor at a sandbar so everyone can float on the water floats, then wrap up with dinner at a waterfront restaurant. Stewardess service is available as an add-on.
Planning a yacht party rental in Ft Lauderdale for a birthday, a reunion or a weekend with friends? The Sundancer departs from Fort Lauderdale, Pompano or Boca, and the Azimut from Fort Lauderdale or North Dania, so you can pick the dock closest to your group.
A pontoon party is the relaxed, lower-cost way to celebrate on the water.
Starting rates are from $275 for the 24 ft Sweetwater tritoon and from $285 for the 27 ft Aqua Patio tritoon, plus the captain fee. Guest limits vary by boat, so confirm your headcount when you pick one.
The pontoons come stocked with ice, water, a cooler, a water mat, life-size party games, a football and a frisbee.
A grill is available as an add-on. Beach the boat at Whiskey Creek, cruise the river at sunset or pull up to a waterfront restaurant.
Party boat pricing depends on the boat, the date and whether the captain fee is already in the rate. A card marked Captain Included covers the captain. A card marked plus captain fee adds it on top.
The rates shown are starting rates. We quote the exact price once we know your date and group size. Call (954) 612-0030 and we will price it out.
Pontoons run from $275 for a compact tritoon to around $1,035 for the larger party pontoons. Yachts start at $845 for a flybridge and go up to $1,950 for the top models, such as the 2022 52 ft Schaefer flybridge.
