Fort Lauderdale Private Party Boat & Sandbar Swim Experience

★ 4.8 (34 reviews) · By Staying Afloat Party Boat

Gather your friends, family, or colleagues for a private boat experience like no other in Fort Lauderdale. You’ll have the entire catamaran to yourselves—play your music, bring your favorite food and drinks, and turn the famous sandbar into your personal party spot. It’s a fun, laid-back way to enjoy the water and soak up the sun without sharing with strangers.

As you cruise along the Intracoastal, your captain will point out stunning mansions and mega-yachts, sharing stories about the area’s most famous sights. Then, anchor at the lively sandbar, where you can swim, relax on unicorn floats, and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere. Whether it’s a birthday, reunion, or corporate outing, this private party boat keeps the good times rolling.

Designed for groups of 15 to 45 people, this experience offers nonstop fun, with no compromises on privacy or playlist. Plus, it often costs less per person than individual tickets—making it a fantastic way to celebrate or just have fun on the water.
