The Bahamas offers a wide range of crewed motor yachts, and a limited number of sailing yachts. While many sailing yachts may offer inclusive rates (CT), most rates do not vary from season to season. Motor Yachts are generally based on WMT or "plus all expenses" terms. During the early fall yachts from the Caribbean travel north to New England or make the Bahamas & South Florida home for the summer months. In the fall, many yachts will pass through S. Florida on their way back to the Caribbean for the winter season. This seasonal migration offers great opportunity to charter a wider range of vessels in this increasingly popular cruising area! Whether you would like to Party in Key West during Fantasy Fest, roll the dice at the fabulous Atlantis Resort & Casino, or cruise the out islands of Abaco or Exumas - enjoying some of the most secluded waters & finest fishing found anywhere in the world, the Florida & Bahamas area offers something for everyone!
The most popular starting ports in Florida are Ft. Lauderdale, Palm Beach or Miami. In the Bahamas, they are Nassau, Freeport and Marsh Harbor. All have commercial airports (there are many private air strips too) so you can meet your yacht at the closest major port to your cruising destination. This allows charterer's to take advantage of the most time spent cruising and enjoying their yachting holiday.
