Our Grill & Chill Charter is the full South Florida boat day — eight hours, the complete Intracoastal run to the Haulover Sandbar and back, and steaks coming off the grill while you're anchored in turquoise water. This is the package for groups who want the whole experience with nothing rushed.
The Journey: Port Everglades, Nature Preserve & the Intracoastal
The run to the sandbar is roughly three hours round trip, and it's a highlight in its own right. Shortly after departure you pass by Port Everglades, where you may see some of the biggest cruise ships in the world up close, as well as very large cargo ships towering over the channel — it's a genuinely striking perspective you can only get from the water.
After the port, you pass through a nature preserve, a quiet mangrove-lined stretch where the pace slows and wildlife is common. From there you continue down the Intracoastal Waterway where the multi-million dollar mansions, waterfront bars and restaurants begin. Optional stops along the route are always on the table, and local dolphins often show up alongside the wake.
The Grill: Steaks on the Ocean
The onboard BBQ grill is what sets this charter apart. Bring your steaks, burgers, chicken, shrimp or whatever your crew is into, and we'll fire it up once we're anchored. There's no better lunch than something hot off the grill with your feet in the water.
Your Boat, Your Vibe: Be Your Own DJ
Connect your phone via Bluetooth to our high-powered, crystal-clear sound system and run your own playlist all day long. Your soundtrack, your day.
Destination: Haulover Sandbar & Sandspur Island
We anchor near the lush, tropical Sandspur Island. With eight hours on the clock, there's real time to settle in:
Unwind & Float
Roll out our massive floating aqua mat or grab one of our personal inflatables — or bring your own — and kick back in the warm, waist-deep turquoise water.
Swim & Explore
Take a dip or paddle over to Sandspur Island to explore its sandy shores and tropical paths.
Eat, Party or Chill
Fire up the grill, mingle with the crowd at Haulover Sandbar, or set up your own quiet sanctuary right by the island.
