About chartering in Palm Beach
Chartering in Palm Beach offers a luxurious blend of exclusive waterfront living and effortless access to Florida's turquoise Gold Coast waters. You depart directly from the Town of Palm Beach Marina, the only public marina in Palm Beach welcoming vessels from 60 to 294 feet, situated just steps from the world-famous Worth Avenue. A single day trip easily reaches the pristine beaches of Peanut Island, the scenic Intracoastal Waterway, or the open Atlantic waters ideal for snorkeling and swimming.
The setting is defined by opulent mansions, palm-fringed shores, and a vibrant atmosphere of high-end dining and shopping visible from your deck. Most charters begin at the central Town of Palm Beach Marina on Australian Avenue, offering a short bridge connection to West Palm Beach's bustling restaurants and bars. This prime location places you within walking distance of Palm Beach's elite eateries while providing immediate access to the Intracoastal and offshore anchorages.
Your day trip can extend to the historical bunker tour on Peanut Island, a local boating hotspot with pristine snorkeling opportunities. Alternatively, cruise the Intracoastal Waterway past impressive estates and Municipal Beach, soaking up the exclusive slice of Florida living. For those seeking open water, the route reaches the Atlantic Ocean for swimming and sunbathing just minutes from the marina.
