Planning a day on Miami’s glittering waters? Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just craving a luxurious escape, a private yacht charter with jet skis can offer a memorable experience. We’ve looked into this tour offered by Book my Boat—a three to four-hour journey aboard the luxurious Maxium 50—and here’s what you need to know to decide if it’s right for you.
What we love about this experience is the combination of luxury and adventure — cruising on a sleek Italian yacht with access to two free Jet Skis creates a balanced day of relaxation and adrenaline. Plus, the personalized service from a bilingual, certified crew ensures your safety and comfort are prioritized.
A potential consideration is the duration, which might feel a bit short if you’re eager to explore extensively. Also, while the inclusion of Jet Skis adds a fun twist, it’s only 30 minutes each, so if high-speed thrill rides are your main goal, make sure your expectations align.

The Yacht: A Floating Luxury Retreat

The Maxium 50 isn’t just visually impressive; it’s a solid platform for both relaxation and adventure. Inside, you’ll find two spacious cabins, a fully equipped kitchen, a modern living area, and a bathroom with a freshwater shower.

This stretch of water is filled with sights that take on a different character from the land—more intimate, more relaxed.
Depending on your preferences, your captain can guide you toward famous Miami islands like Star Island, home to celebrity mansions, or Monument Island, where you can anchor to swim or just soak up the sun. Many reviews mention the stunning views—“The skyline and the mansions look even better from the water,” one traveler noted.
Island Stops and Water Activities

One of the most praised features of this tour is the ability to anchor near picturesque islands. Here, you can swim in warm, clear water, float on the water mat, or lounge on the deck while sipping cold drinks. The yacht is equipped with a refrigerator, microwave, and a cooler with water and ice, so snacks and drinks are always at hand.
For those eager to get their adrenaline pumping, the two Jet Skis included for tours of four hours or more are a highlight. Each guest gets 30 minutes of high-speed fun, which many reviewers say feel like “a thrill you won’t forget.” It’s a chance to zip across Biscayne Bay, explore hidden coves, and experience Miami’s tropical vibe from a different perspective.
Some reviews emphasize the value of this combo—while the Jet Skis are a time-limited treat, they add significantly to the overall adventure without pushing the price beyond reason. Plus, the Bluetooth system means you can blast your playlist, making the ride even more fun.
