Book Smart 

Save 25% on midweek charters when the rich and famous aren’t usually out. Twilight and sunset cruises also offer discounts. 

Split the Tab 

Divide costs among a group for an affordable per-person rate. Our 59-foot yacht sleeps 13, so pack it with pals! 

BYOB 

Provide your own Champagne, craft cocktails, or grazing platters and deduct costs substantially. Setup is also a non-issue.

Trim the Fat  

Opt for our basic equipment package rather than every bell and whistle. Focus funds on excursions instead of amenities.

DIY Decadence  

Instead of à la carte extras, commission our onboard chef to create a magnificent family-style meal at fair bulk pricing. 

Score Add-Ons Strategically

Save premium massages, bottomless mimosas, or breakfast buffets for special occasions rather than daily consumption.  

Take Advantage of Perks  

Redeem our seasonal discounts for social media promotions or cash back on repeat bookings with loyalty credits. 

Shop Smart Spots

Select affordable yet picture-perfect cruise zones like Miami River over further afield hot spots on your route.

Pilot Discounts

Yacht Photography Tips to Document Your Miami Adventure on a Private Yacht

/in /by

One of the best parts about chartering a luxury yacht in Miami is the breathtaking backdrops you’ll encounter along the way. From Star Island’s million-dollar mansions to Stiltsville’s colorful cottages, 

Extasy Yacht cruises many photogenic locales just begging to be captured. Here are some of our pro tips for snapping stunning shots to remember your day out on the water:

Come Prepared  

Pack extra batteries and memory cards to never miss a money shot. A waterproof case protects against sea spray. 

Capture the Journey

Record video of your yacht pulling into intimate shores or streaking across Biscayne Bay. Play with shutter speeds to blur palm trees artistically.

Rule of Thirds

A shot with your subject off-center creates much better dramatic visual tension. You can try framing your horizon on the top of the frame or bottom third lines on your grid.

Golden Hour Magic  

Mornings and evenings bathe everything in buttery natural light. Stake out prime sunset destinations to photograph like Monument Island backdropped in peachy tones. 

Zoom Responsibly  

Our lens can pick up details like stilt houses framed perfectly against cobalt skies. But ensure privacy by avoiding close-ups of residences without permission. 

Candid Moments Matter

Capture candid laughter over cocktails or crew skillfully handling the boat mid-spin. Candid shots portray authentic joy better than stiff poses.

Underwater Wonder  

Waterproof case in hand, slowly pan just below the surface taking in kaleidoscopic sea life. Stablehand may capture your dip for you too.  

Macro Magic  

Get up close to textures. Frothy wake suspended against the boat or emerald green leaves dripping with water make for intriguing abstracts.

Packing for Pleasure with Some Essentials for a Day of Ultra-Luxe Yachting in Miami

/in /by

A charter aboard Extasy Yacht is unmatched when it comes to aquatic luxury experiences in the coastal city of Miami.

To get the most out of an unforgettable day on the turquoise waterways, it’s imperative to come fully prepared with a curated collection of essential items. As South Florida’s premier charter vessel, we’ve revealed our tried-and-true onboard necessities for an elevated experience aboard our 59-foot stunner. 

First and foremost, sun protection is critical when spending prolonged time in the Florida rays. Pack broad spectrum SPF 30 or higher for all exposed skin, and don’t forget lip balm with SPF. A lightweight, breathable sun hat keeps both you and your coif photoshoot ready. Sunglasses with UV protection not only look the part but also shield delicate eye areas. 

Your day aboard will flow smoothly with a chic yet practical outfit. Linen or lightweight cotton is ideal for staying cool and comfortable. Sexy sundresses and shorts with cropped tops keep the vibe vacation-fresh. 

Don’t forget comfortable walking sandals or slides that can quickly convert to dancing heels after dark. Accessorize with oversized shades, beach bags, and gold jewelry for that effortless Miami flair.

Essential extras like a portable charger and Bluetooth speaker add spontaneous fun and functionality throughout the day. Pack small staples like hand sanitizer, zip locks, and wet wipes. Don’t leave without a camera to capture magical moments against iconic backdrops. An inflatable pool float brings whimsy to your charter; try our adorable blow-up swans! 

For pampering, toss in hydrating face mist, lip mask, dry shampoo, and mini products for touch-ups between cocktails and cantaloupe. 

Slap on an anti-chafing balm before boarding to avoid irritation in intimate areas. Extasy Yacht provides plush linens and towels, but you may want a cover-up or robe-up for dockside dining.

Personal snacks like dried fruits, nuts, and protein bars maintain sustained energy. Staying powered by beachy treats pairs perfectly with our signature cocktails! 

Most importantly, arrive with an open mind, dressed to impress, and primed for pleasure and luxury. 

Our seasoned crew ensures guests experience transportive escapism during every charter. Follow these pro tips to pack light yet prepared for a luxurious day aboard Miami’s leading charter vessel – Extasy Yacht style. Bon voyage!
