Private Miami Boat Charter: Sightseeing, Sunset & Sandbar

Miami sunset cruises compared: shared, cocktail or private

Sunset boats in Miami by price, length, drinks and how private the boat is.

By Andrew, City by Six · Miami · Updated 2 Nov 2026

The short version

A sunset cruise in Miami means Biscayne Bay with the skyline turning on behind you. The shared cruises are the cheap seats; the private boats cost more but you pick the route and the music.

Check the departure time against the sunset on your date: in winter the sun sets close to 5:45 pm, in summer after 8 pm.
