    I can certainly say that booking a boat day with Captain Eddie absolutely did the trick and MADE our trip!

I went on the Dinner Cruise in December. Service: Wait in line to be boarded, check in, go hang out anywhere (inside, front/back of lower deck, front/back of upper deck), food will be served to you whenever you seat yourself (I was served at 5:30pm), non alcoholic drinks are complimentary at the bar otherwise it's BYOB. Fun cruise experience. I get sea sick and was not sea sick at all during the entire cruise. The front of the yacht can be really windy so keep that in mind, especially once the sun sets because it can get cold during winter. The yacht only travels intercostally, no open sea. That being said, it was iron and sad to see the beautiful picturesque sunset being obstructed by all the multimillion dollar homes lining waterway. Side salad of mixed greens, cucumber, shredded carrot, and grape tomato (ranch or vinaigrette dressing) was served alongside Lasagna topped with Italian sausage and a slice of garlic buttered French bread. It was all very homemade tasting and yummy! For dessert, a square slice of carrot cake was served, not too sweet and very satisfying (however, it does contain walnuts so beware if you have allergies).

    Started off great, got on boat at 3:45 for a 4 pm sail away. Got you inside, had some cheese and…read morecrackers. There was some soft drinks you need to BYOB. We left at 4:09, I think we were waiting for some latecomers. Ok the captain spoke some mentioning many of the different zillionaires on the waterway. It was my birthday and those who came forward were able to steer the boat for a few minutes. It was 5:35 and "bam" we made a u-turn. Yup, dinner was ready and warm lasagna and salad for all. Listen don't come for gourmet food, it may be Stouffers, with a great salad and garlic bread, but you are on a boat with 40 people. It was very enjoyable 5 star, maybe not; but the wife and I enjoyed it. Remember to bring your alcohol.

Was expecting some actual tour info, never visited this area and only new tidbit I learned was in regards to the golden gate. We did sail past a lighthouse but nothing was said about it! The tour guide, Tony was nice enough, but definitely wasn't engaging. Kinda gave the vibes as if our tour was an after thought and honestly didn't want to be there and not familiar with our boat. Tour also started late because we were sent the wrong address. Captain confirmed but wasn't at the confirmed location when we called and we had to drive elsewhere. No signs or flags just "walk to the back of the restaurant". The boat had tiki decor, but could definitely get a facelift. There were bean bags to sit on that have seen better days. Seats in the front would get splashed with water. The floor had wet turf, so be aware of that! Water was offered and stored in a cooler. The cooler also doubled as a seat. Lack of cup holders. Life jackets were dirty! Being that the tour was a sunset one we were anticipating sailing in the dark. Was not expecting to be sailing in pitch black. The only light was from the shore and other boats. Captain couldn't figure how to turn on the string lights. Even when he supposedly called for assist no one knew how to turn it on. We were offered to extend the trip but definitely declined since what would be the point?! We had a good time because of the fun that we brought. Likely wouldn't return with my family.

    I had an incredibly disappointing experience with Magical Moments Yacht Rental in Miami for my…read morebirthday. I initially booked a 50-foot boat leaving from Bayside, but a day before, the broker informed me the boat was unavailable due to a part issue. She offered a boat of the same size but leaving from a different marina. However, on the day of, we ended up with a 40-foot boat, departing from the Miami River, for the same price. The boat was supposed to arrive at 3 PM but didn't show up until 4:30-4:45 PM, drastically reducing our rental time. When we finally boarded, the captain tried to charge us nearly triple the balance due, leading to a back-and-forth between him and the broker. We were also given no choice in selecting the captain and were told to pretend we had chosen him via text. Leaving from the Miami River was a nightmare. It took an hour and 20 minutes just to reach open sea, during which we couldn't play music due to the residential area. Our six-hour rental was reduced by nearly three hours due to this. We were promised a landing on an island to mingle with other boats, but instead, we docked in the middle of the ocean with nothing to do but hang out on a water mat behind the boat. The entire experience was frustrating and ruined my birthday. The broker later apologized and offered a four-hour rental with 10 guests as compensation. Despite following up repeatedly, she eventually said the offer was only valid on weekdays, making it impossible for us due to work schedules. It was extremely disappointing to see on their social media channels that the boat we were supposed to have actually departed that same day at the same time it was scheduled for us, which makes me wonder what ended up happening. I will never use this company again. They failed to deliver on their promises, provided no compensation for the size difference in the boat, and caused a lot of unnecessary stress and disappointment. My guests and I were extremely dissatisfied with the service, and I wouldn't recommend Magical Moments Yacht Rental in Miami to anyone. Tuve una experiencia increíblemente decepcionante con Magical Moments Yacht Rental en Miami para mi cumpleaños. Inicialmente reservé un barco de 50 pies que salía de Bayside, pero un día antes, la corredora me informó que el barco no estaba disponible debido a un problema con una pieza. Ella ofreció un barco del mismo tamaño pero saliendo de una marina diferente. Sin embargo, el día del evento, terminamos con un barco de 40 pies, saliendo del río Miami, por el mismo precio. Se suponía que el barco llegaría a las 3 PM, pero no apareció hasta las 4:30-4:45 PM, reduciendo drásticamente nuestro tiempo de alquiler. Cuando finalmente abordamos, el capitán intentó cobrarnos casi el triple del saldo adeudado, lo que llevó a una discusión entre él y la corredora. Tampoco nos dieron la opción de elegir al capitán y nos dijeron que pretendamos que lo habíamos elegido por mensaje de texto. Salir del río Miami fue una pesadilla. Nos tomó una hora y 20 minutos llegar al mar abierto, durante los cuales no pudimos poner música debido a la zona residencial. Nuestro alquiler de seis horas se redujo casi tres horas debido a esto. Nos prometieron un desembarco en una isla para mezclarnos con otros barcos, pero en su lugar, nos estacionamos en medio del océano sin nada que hacer más que quedarnos en una alfombra de agua detrás del barco. Toda la experiencia fue frustrante y arruinó mi cumpleaños. La corredora luego se disculpó y ofreció un alquiler de cuatro horas con 10 invitados como compensación. A pesar de hacer un seguimiento repetidamente, ella finalmente dijo que la oferta solo era válida entre semana, lo que nos hacía imposible aceptarla debido a nuestros horarios de trabajo. Fue extremadamente decepcionante ver en sus canales de redes sociales que el barco que se suponía íbamos a tener en realidad salió ese mismo día a la misma hora que estaba programado para nosotros, lo cual me hace preguntarme qué fue lo que realmente sucedió. Nunca volveré a usar esta compañía. No cumplieron sus promesas, no ofrecieron compensación por la diferencia de tamaño del barco y causaron mucho estrés y decepción innecesarios. Mis invitados y yo estuvimos extremadamente insatisfechos con el servicio, y no recomendaría Magical Moments Yacht Rental en Miami a nadie.

    Helen S Drift Fishing

    I've been out on the Helen S which offers offshore drift boat fishing a couple of times. The…read morecaptain, Skip Dana, has years of experience at doing what he does so you're in pretty good hands. It generally sails 3 times a day with a morning, afternoon and evening trips of around 4 hours each. They provide you with rod, reel, bait and a fishing license is unnecessary. The times I've gone out on it were OK, but for drift fishing, the boat was somewhat overcrowded on those occasions. Hence, I would say the best times might be off season when there are fewer people around. I won't comment on the catch since that is generally a situation of the fish being cooperative, certainly not the lack of skill or in any way the fault of the ship, the crew or the fishermen.

The Helen S is a my favorite boat but the Fish City Pride is a perfect alternative. I prefer to fish the morning trips so that I'm at the marina early enough to watch all the boats and marine life. The staff are like family. Very helpful and always excited to see people catch fish. The mates are knowledgeable and quick to help with fish and tangles. The captains know all the best spots to fish and will personally clean your fish for you back at the dock. Other fishing charters include a 45 minute boat ride to the fishing hole. With this company, you've got lines in the water 10 minutes after leaving the marina. This means you get a full extra hour of fishing unlike the Ft Lauderdale based charters. They provide everything you need to fish. All you need is your sunglasses, sunblock, a sandwich, and something to drink. This is a alcohol free boat so leave the beer at home.
