607  Crewed Luxury Yachts for Charter in the Bahamas

Bahamas Yacht Charter

A Bahamas yacht charter promises guests a slice of tropical perfection and unparalleled escapism. The idyllic chain of islands that form the Bahamas provides yacht charter guests with a decadent cocktail of sun-drenched sands (even pink ones), crystalline waters teeming with marine life, and diverse topography.

Comprising more than 700 heavenly islands with precious few inhabited, the cruising grounds of the Bahamas archipelago offer a fascinating mixture of seclusion and connectedness. Expect a gloriously slower pace of life that harmonizes with the gentle tide, blended with a fiesta of blazing color and soft-calypso: an endearingly exotic charter experience.

Silhouetted by coral cays, aquamarine shallows are garlanded with glistening coves and iridescent bays are often only three or four meters deep, making the Bahamas both a perennial family favorite and a jet-setter's paradise. It's ideal territory for shallow draft yachts or catamarans, who can cozy up to seldom-visited anchorages and soak up their celestial calm, or delve deeper for an aquatic adventure.

Bahamas Yacht Charters: At a Glance

  • Constant sunshine Its sun-drenched shores amid cinematic landscapes charm yacht charter guests all-year-round. A blissful sanctuary awaits you when you reach these islands.
  • 700 islands, cays, and islets Make up the achingly beautiful jigsaw that is the Bahamas archipelago; expect beaches and bays that make your heart sing as par for the course. You'll be spoilt for choice with stunning anchorages.
  • 4% cruising fee Attractively low fees help to make the Bahamas an enduringly popular yacht charter destination.
  • Easily accessible Reaching the Bahamas is a mere hours flight from Florida or three hours from New York and Toronto. The Bahamas also has excellent transport links to other worldwide destinations.
  • Tropical thrills The Bahamas is a place of endless adventure and intrigue: from swimming with inquisitive pigs and gliding alongside friendly nurse sharks; to strolling otherworldly pink beaches and diving into coral-filled caves that once appeared in a James Bond film. The list really does go on and on.
  • Shallow waters The Bahamas' alluringly clear waters aren't deep, so shallow draught motor yachts, sailing yachts or catamarans provide guests with more opportunities to admire the Bahamas' natural splendor.

Where to Charter a Yacht in the Bahamas

Sensationally beautiful cays dapple every part of this glittering archipelago, so Bahamas yacht charter guests can take their pick of destinations to venture to. Every kind of possible itinerary can be catered to here; from simply recalibrating on silky sanded beaches lapped by gentle waves of unearthly blue: to shimmying the night away at twinkling bars until dawn; to whiling away sun-kissed afternoons golfing, snorkeling, fishing, and even horseback riding.

Types of Charter Yachts in the Bahamas

Crewed motor yacht charters and luxury catamaran charters are undoubtedly the best way to discover the Bahamas.

As one of the most popular destinations for yacht charters in the Caribbean , guests have countless fleet options when it comes to a Bahamas crewed charter. If you are unsure whether to opt for a motor yacht, sailing yacht or catamaran to cruise Bahamian waters, here are some main points to consider:

Shallow Cruising Grounds

The waters all around the Bahamas are fairly shallow, often no more than 4 meters deep, and even less in some places. Therefore, yachts with shallow drafts make the ideal choice for luxury charters around this enchanting region.

Most sailing charter yachts come equipped with a retractable keel, facilitating access to the beautiful turquoise shallows, although larger sailing yachts may still find their draft too deep for some areas, even with their keel up!

To get around this, some of the larger luxury yachts drop their anchor further out into the deeper waters and use their onboard tenders to explore the area, where guests can experience the thrill of getting up close and personal with the archipelago’s astonishing marine fauna, including rays, sharks and inquisitive swimming pigs. The yachts’ tenders also enable even greater access to the Bahamas' myriad exquisite island reefs and blue lagoons.

Motor yacht charter in the Bahamas

A luxury motor yacht provides guests with a tranquil haven to uncover the startling beauty of the Bahamas. Whether you want to peacefully bronze under Bahamian rays or get out the jet skis and whizz around deserted islands, a crewed motor yacht charter in the Bahamas provides you with boundless itinerary options. 

Sailing Yacht Charter in the Bahamas

Chartering a sailing yacht in the Bahamas means you can embrace all that these substantially beautiful islands have to offer. Cruising further afield to otherwise inaccessible sleepy villages with chalk-white beaches and waters suffused with a pale aqua glow is worth incorporating into any itinerary.

Catamaran Charter in the Bahamas

Given that the majority of catamarans have shallow drafts, crewed catamaran charters are a highly popular choice for Bahamas vacations. As you can cruise close to the cays, guests can savor the liberating feeling of being able to jump off-board at almost any point. Whether it's to dive amid sunken shipwrecks and admire shoals of fish that shimmy through fronds of coral in a kaleidoscope of color or to dance the night away at a private island under a blanket of stars; the choice is all yours.

How Much Does It Cost To Charter a Yacht in the Bahamas?

Bahamas yacht charters are plentiful, which means there are a vast array of motor yacht and catamaran charters to suit every type of budget. The average prices for motor and sailing yacht charters in the Bahamas are as follows;

For motor yacht rentals in Bahamas, prices can range from $42,100 to $1.47m per week, plus expenses

For luxury sailing yacht rentals in Bahamas, prices can go from $30,000 to $343,476 weekly, plus expenses

Tax for Yacht Charters in the Bahamas

What is the cost of tax for yacht charters in the Bahamas? From the 1st of July 2022, a new 10% VAT rate will be levied on the total charter fee, and is applicable to all yachts cruising in Bahamian waters. The new 10% levy does not replace the current 4% cruising fee which remains payable to the Port Department. 

All yachts wishing to cruise within the archipelago must now register for VAT in the Bahamas and receive a Bahamian TIN number. 

Please consult your chosen yacht charter broker who will be able to offer personalized advice on VAT and any other business for your next Bahamas yacht charter.

Foreign-Flagged Yachts in US Waters

There are strict and complicated rules governing commercial yacht charters (non-private) cruising US waters, which in general means that only US-flagged yachts or US built yachts with a coastwise endorsement can conduct yacht charters in the US. Furthermore, yachts that are available for charter are considered to be "engaging in a trade" and thus ineligible for a US cruising licence. Most luxury charter yachts are also not US duty paid.

As the majority of the charter fleet are foreign-flagged yachts, Bahamas yacht charters will likely begin outside of the US, usually in the Bahamian capital of Nassau where there is a large busy international airport.

That said, it is possible to pick-up charter guests in the US so long as the yacht's next port of call is outside of US waters. This can be a good option for those wishing to meet the boat in Florida and cruise down to the Bahamas from here.

Where Should I Begin My Yacht Charter in the Bahamas?

The vast majority of yacht charters in the Bahamas embark and disembark in the country's picturesque capital  Nassau , which is home to its best-known international ports, dotted with top-rung marinas all along its azure waters. The city is justly renowned for its throng of fine-dining options, boutiques, hip eateries, and casinos fringed by towering palm trees. Nassau is also conveniently located for cruising to the Exumas and beyond.

Atlantis Resort, Nassau

For a real respite from the crowds, it's common for yacht charter guests to embark their vessel at Marsh Harbor on the  Abaco Islands ,  where you can trace the mesmerizing string of sandy cays that can be found here. Its shores, a serene and shimmering topaz, are perfect for dropping anchor and taking the toys for a spin.

When is the Best Time to Visit the Bahamas by Yacht?

One of the great joys of choosing a Bahamas yacht charter is that its balmy climes and shallow waters make it more or less ideal to cruise all-year-round* .  But the Bahamas does have a peak season from mid-December to mid-April. The average temperatures of both Bahamian summers and winters are unsurprisingly tropical: hovering between 24-29 degrees and rarely dipping below this. 

Palm tree lined beach in the Bahamas

During the summertime (from May until October), guests can expect endless sunshine and some humidity, while from November until April, the Bahamas has a slightly cooler temperature and colder waters.

*However, whilst Bahamian weather is pleasingly warm all-year the islands do fall within the hurricane belt, running from June until the end of November along the US East Coast and the Caribbean. The Western Caribbean's own hurricane season usually starts from mid-September until early November.

Nevertheless, it is worth keeping in mind that hurricanes in the Bahamas are fairly infrequent, and even less so than on the US East Coast.

Marinas in the Bahamas

It is not hyperbole to say that the Bahamas offers some of the most spectacular marinas in the world: from glamorous hotspots replete with award-winning restaurants, designer stores, and buzzing beach bars, to the exquisite barefoot luxury that emanates from the less frequented.

Marina in the Bahamas

A slew of activities is on offer here, including bonefishing, ocean fishing, dolphin watching, golfing, and snorkeling. And that's not even to mention the dizzying array of casinos, water parks, and marine reserves you can also find. Simply put, marinas in the Bahamas are simply of the finest caliber.

But which marinas are the best? Below are some charter favorites:

  • Hurricane Hole Superyacht Marina : the newly renovated marina at Paradise Landing close to the famous Atlantis Resort in Nassau offers a raft of 5-star amenities, wellness facilities and world-class retail outlets, not to mention exclusive restaurants and bars, alongside an on-site customs facility and slips catering to yachts up to 420ft (128m) LOA.
  • Treasure Cay Beach, Marina and Golf Resort (The Abacos): well-protected deep water marina, with excellent provisioning. Features an outstanding golf course, as well a spa for an extra dose of pampering. Excursions to see the delightful water-bound pigs can also be arranged here. It offers a 164-berth capacity up to 46m.
  • Green Turtle Club and Marina (The Abacos): tranquil and conveniently located to Abaco's hotspots as well as a perfect spot for beach hikes and land-based activities. Accommodates 40 berths up to 39m.
  • Atlantis Marina: iconic megayacht marina featuring a protected harbor with 63 berths up to 67m. Has an extensive number of facilities including a golf course, casino, spa, water park, and more. You can also arrange swimming with dolphins excursions here.
  • Emerald Bay Marina (The Exumas): large superyacht marina that has a berth capacity of 150 for yachts up to 79m. Within easy reach of many mesmerizing cays, including Cave Cay and Staniel Cay.
  • Palm Cay Marina (Nassau): ideal jumping point for exploring Paradise Island and the Exumas, with state-of-the-art facilities and amenities. 194 berth capacity up to 33m.
  • Highbourne Cay Marina: exclusive marina on a privately owned island, seen as the gateway to the Exumas. Accommodates up to 26 berths.

Popular Anchorages in the Bahamas

The Bahamas has jaw-dropping anchorages in abundance, flecked all along the 590-mile-long archipelago.

In the Exumas , you must cruise towards Leaf Cay to meet the colony of stocky but amiable Iguanas who call it home. You won't miss them: they'll be ready and waiting to greet you when you drop anchor. You should also pay a visit to  Staniel Cay, where the famed  Thunderball Grotto ( named after the 1965 James Bond film) is located, to see a cave illuminated by light and flourishes of angelfish. Closeby, you'll find Big Major Cay's  swimming pigs, who have a seemingly never-ending capacity for treats, and Shroud Cay's sea turtles contently floating amid a dramatic underwater backdrop. Simply put, it's a wildlife lover's paradise.

In the Abacos, head south to the isolated Great Guana Cay and  spend an afternoon snorkeling around the marine park, or alternatively, head straight to its golf course. Further north, you'll find Green Turtle Cay : where fishing boats stand charmingly in front of timber houses in a perfectly graduated shade of pastels. Swimming pigs (yes, there's even more here!) are located in nearby Noname Cay . And last but not least, bathe in the calm, warm shores of  Treasure Cay,  where you will find some of the best beaches in the world.

Elsewhere, other popular anchorages include those in  Eleuthera , an island steeped in cultural significance but manages to retain its erstwhile charm. Set towards  St. George's Cay to drink up the peaceful ambiance of Spanish Wells beach  and meander the historic  Governor's Harbor.

Best Airports in the Bahamas for Yacht Charters

airplane flying past palm trees Bahamas

Reaching your crewed yacht charter in the Bahamas is a breeze, with more than 20 international airports at your disposal, plus myriad smaller private and public airports. However, some are more conveniently located to popular yacht charter destinations than others. Here are the most popular airports for yacht charters in the Bahamas:

  • Nassau Lyndon-Pindling International Airport: best for charters starting in vibrant Nassau, as it is conveniently located to the docks of many world-class marinas and can be a quick tender ride from the airport. 
  • Georgetown, Great Exuma Airport : ideally located to reach the world-famous swimming pigs in the Exumas. Daily international flights are available.
  • North Eleuthera Airport: an international airport that is best for reaching the quaint Eleuthera and Harbor Island.
  • Marsh Harbor International Airport: ideal for charters commencing on the crystal clear shores of Abacos, being only 7.9km away.
  • Treasure Cay Airport : smaller than Marsh Harbor International Airport, this one is perfect for Northern Abacos yacht charters, taking a short water taxi ride to Green Turtle Cay to reach your destination.

Booking Advice from the Experts

We strongly recommend booking with your yacht charter broker at least three to six months in advance, as the Bahamas is a highly popular Caribbean luxury yacht charter destination. By doing so, you will increase the likelihood of securing your preferred dates and you will have a greater selection of yachts on offer to choose from.

This also ensures your broker has enough time to craft a personalized itinerary and secure a berth at a popular marina.

Local Insight

Diving in the Bahamas

  • Keep in mind that the endless sunshine from mid-December until April attracts a high number of visitors to this idyllic location, and this is when the Bahamas is usually at its busiest.
  • New Providence Island (where Nassau and the extraordinary Atlantis Resort and Marina are situated) tends to be heaving with cruise ships. If you are looking for a calmer charter, this is worth taking into consideration.
  • Weather conditions and wind strength play a crucial role in anchorage spots in the Bahamas, so plan any overnight anchorages accordingly.
  • Some anchorages can be a bit of a challenge to set: it's common for heavy grass to cover a large section of some of the better spots to drop anchor 
  • Anchorages that appear to have a sandy bottom can oftentimes be just a thin layer of sand over a coral reef or rock, making it difficult to dig the anchor in. Don't be misled by them!

Most Popular Superyacht Hotspots in the Bahamas

Treasure Cay Abaco Bahamas beach

In the north of the archipelago you'll find the Abacos : widely considered to be the boating capital of the Bahamas thanks to its unique geography. Epitomising laid-back Bahamian living, an Abacos yacht charter is ideal for those in search of stillness and solitude. Soak up its subtle alchemy at the vast 2,100 marine reserve in Pelican Cay,  fringed by blossoming coral, tame sea turtles, and dancing angelfish, or explore the superb surfing opportunities at Fowl Cays . For a journey through vivid color, pass a leisurely morning in nearby  Hope Tow n, admiring crayon-hued Bahamian architecture and  Elbow Cay's candy-striped lighthouse whilst drinking in their unpretentious ambiance.

After an afternoon spent floating on a late-summer heat haze, further on to Green Turtle Cay and sip on that famous Bahamian cocktail, the Goombay Smash, by a seafront taverna as the sun casts a peachy glow. Of course, no visit to the Abacos would be complete without a trip to the acclaimed  Treasure Cay Beach : its milky white sands and cyan shallows see it routinely end up on the world's most beautiful beaches list.

Home to 365 cays, days here could easily drift by diving off burnished rocks until the sun slowly slinks away. Life truly does revolve around the water in the Exumas, so think every watersport you could possibly imagine is a go here. Plus, it's the perfect shallow cruising ground for yacht charters, with no cruise ships in sight making it a discerning choice for those looking for repose.

Sailing towards Big Major's Cay is love at first sight for most: it's where you will find Pig Beach ,  and its utterly charming piggies gliding surprisingly effortlessly across the water. Nearby, plunge into the sea with nurse sharks at Compass Cay before ending the day sauntering along the remote  Three Sisters Beach as the sunsets. Whilst you are here, go onshore and absorb Bahamian culture to its fullest in  Georgetown.

An Eleuthera yacht charter has come to encapsulate the island's name, which in Greek means 'freedom'. Secluded, slender, and over 100 miles long, Eleuthera is unquestionably the prettiest out of the Out Islands, fully earning its name as the Nantucket of the Caribbean. With the island's soft, salmon-colored sandy beaches and pastel-painted houses set among pineapple fields, it's hard not to become infatuated by its perfectly-packaged tropical charms.

Make sure you also visit the historic capital  Governor's Harbor  and the verdant  Hatchet Bay whilst you are cruising its unspoiled shores.

Harbour Island

stunning pink sandy beach in bahamas

Situated in the northwest of Eleuthera, Harbor Island is renowned for its astonishing Pink Sand Beach , which gets its unique rosy hue from the presence of millions of tiny crushed coral seashells. Packing a powerful punch to the senses, this seemingly endless stretch of sand which is cool-to-the-touch (and ideal for barefoot walking) extends over three miles and adored by the well-heeled. And you'll understand in an instant why when you visit.  Languid afternoons spent upon its long arc of soft sugar-textured sand, hugged by pale-blue waters and bathed in golden light will linger long in your memory.

But that's not all Harbor Island has to offer. It would be remiss not to mention Harbor Island's lively night scene, and the number of sophisticated boutiques huddled here: with Dunmore Town the ultimate go-to destination for designer wear.

Don't Miss:

Andros Barrier Reef: delve into shipwrecks and be greeted with a vast array of marine life at the third longest reef in the world. If you fancy bonefishing, this is among the world's best locations.

Warderick Wells: tether here to discover some of the rarest life forms on earth, as well as lobsters, turtles, and parrotfish.

Wax Cay: grab your jet skis for a thrilling trip through the cay's myriad of mangroves.

Lucayan National Park: a stunning park that is also home to the world's longest underwater cave system.

Walker's Cay: if you love sport-fishing, then this spot should be your prime choice.

Junkanoo: be serenaded by island-inspired calypso and flamboyant dance troupes in this vibrant street parade held every Boxing Day.

Glass Window Bridge: drink in the majestic panoramas here, with views of the rich, sapphire-tinted waters of the Atlantic to the left, and the aqua Caribbean to the right.

John Watling’s Distillery: set in a former plantation house, sample a traditional rum cocktail at the Red Turtle Tavern, bordered by leafy black olive trees.

Clifton Heritage National Park: snorkel around the largest underwater sculpture in the world — an 18-foot statue of a Bahamian girl.

Bimini: less-frequented, this island is one of only a handful of places in the world where you can swim with wild dolphins, so make the most of it.

Bahamas Yacht Charter Q&A

Your vessel will need to have a shallow draft (no more than 4m) as Bahamas waters aren't deep. If you would like to visit the Bahamas by superyacht, it will need to have a shallow draft below 4m or a retractable keel to cruise comfortably and make the most of the idyllic anchorages found here.

Browse with ease on our site a wide-ranging selection of motor yachts, sailing yachts, and catamarans for charter in the Bahamas. Select by your chosen dates, number of guests, yacht type, features, and preferred onboard toys and we'll show you what's available.

If you decide to make an enquiry, a yacht charter broker will then contact you to provide you with a custom charter proposal based on your needs.

You can also reach out to your yacht charter broker directly, and they will be able to research for you the ideal yacht charter in the Bahamas.

Mid-December to mid-April is the Bahamas' peak season, characterized by endless sunshine and pleasingly warm waters.

Nassau is the invariably popular choice to begin a Bahamas yacht charter. Not only is the city astoundingly beautiful and replete with world-class marinas, hip boutiques, restaurants, and more, but reaching other Bahamas destinations like the Exumas is a breeze.

In most cases, a completed charter agreement and 50% of the charter fee is required as a deposit to secure your luxury yacht charter, which is payable once the contract has been signed.

The Bahamas is a highly popular yacht charter destination, which for guests means there is a yacht to suit practically every budget.

When booking, keep in mind the additional costs that aren't included in the base rate, namely tax and the APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance). Typically set at 30% of the charter fee, the APA is paid in advance and covers expenses such as fuel, berthing, food,  drinks, as well as any special requests (such as for tenders that are not carried by yacht, equipment hire, etc.)

Booking with 12 Knots was a great experience, they helped answer all our questions ahead of time. Would use them again to find a bareboat charter. Looking forward to many more travels using them.

“The sailing was great. The Exuma Islands were amazing.”

I apologize for the delay. We have been out of the country for almost a month. The sailing was great. The Exuma Islands were amazing. The staff at Navtours were helpful and professional. On the last day (on the crossing back)—the impeller went bad. W…

“I've used 12 Knots twice”

I've used 12 Knots twice now and everything has gone smooth, their site is easy to navigate, and the prices have been tough to beat.

Great experience round trip Nassau to Georgetown on a Moorings 46 PCE power cat. Moorings base now very well run. Boat performed well with no significant issues. Returned Norman Cay to Nassau in 2 meter seas as a good test. 12 Knots provide excel…

What's in a name, a kittiwake is....

The catamaran has a special name that reflects its seagoing character.

According to Wikipedia, kittiwakes are a seabird species in the gull family Laridae. The name is derived from its call, a shrill ‘kittee-wa-aaake, kitte-wa-aaake’.

They have a white head and body, grey back, grey wings tipped with solid black, and a yellow bill. They can have either black or red legs.

In contrast to the dappled chicks of other gull species, kittiwake chicks are downy and white since they are under relatively little threat of predation, as the nests are on extremely steep cliffs. Unlike other gull chicks which wander around as soon as they can walk, kittiwake chicks instinctively sit still in the nest to avoid falling off.

Kittiwakes are coastal breeding birds ranging in the North Pacific, North Atlantic, and Arctic oceans. They are the only gull species that are exclusively cliff-nesting.

Our catamaran crew members are experienced, friendly, and ready to ensure that you have a fabulous crewed charter yacht vacation. The captain and chef bring a high level of service and attention to the finer details, which will certainly make any charter with them an adventure of a lifetime!

Guest Review:

“My husband and I, along with two friends, decided to charter Kittiwake and sail the Exumas. I can say without reservation it was one of the most enjoyable and restorative vacations we’ve ever taken. The new boat was ultra-comfortable and spacious, with plenty of places to curl up and read or watch the mind-blowing scenery unfold. And Kittiwake’s many amenities provided a luxurious touch. Most importantly, though, was the crew. From the moment we came onboard, the Captain and Chef took care of us in every respect. Their professionalism and commitment to our enjoyment never ceased to impress us.

There’s so much more I could say about this trip. Five out of five stars. It would be impossible to place a value on how much we loved it. We’ll be back.”  ~ Dave L. and Stuart M.

Everything You Need to Know About a Bahamian Yacht Charter

Are the exuma islands worth exploring on a yacht charter in the bahamas.

The Exumas are most certainly worth exploring during a luxury yacht vacation in The Bahamas. This stunning archipelago is the most popular cruising area during a Bahamas yacht charter, but don’t let the moniker “popular” make you think they are crowded, as they are anything but. Comprising 365 islands, islets, and cays with anchorages from an hour to seven hours apart, there is plenty of space to find privacy, even during the peak cruising season, so where you go depends on how many islands you want to visit. Once you experience a boat charter in The Bahamas, you’ll see why people come back again and again.

Why charter a motor yacht in The Bahamas?

A crewed luxury motor yacht is a great way to cruise the crystal-clear waters of The Bahamas. Motor yachts offer great interior volume and superb onboard amenities. Motor yachts are also more accessible than sailing vessels, with many boasting elevators that ensure easy access to all decks. Large motor yachts often include a large garage, enabling them to carry a tender, or in some cases, several tenders, as well as a superb selection of water toys. On larger motor yachts and superyachts, expect to find amenities such as a cinema, swimming pool, hot tub, a spa, gym, beach club, and multiple deck areas for sunbathing, relaxation, and entertaining. Superyachts may also include a helipad and submersibles. The wide range of amenities and voluminous interior spaces of a motor yacht make them a popular choice with families and large groups of friends. For the best choice of motor yacht charters in The Bahamas, contact Northrop & Johnson.

  • Do I need a boat licence for a yacht charter in Bahamas? A yacht charter in the Bahamas means that you are required to carry a cruising permit. This can be obtained online prior to your arrival or in person when you enter one of the ports in the Bahamas. As it saves a lot of hassle, officials really appreciate it when you obtain the cruising permit online. This cruising permit is required for anyone looking to sail in Bahamian waters and will be checked by officials.
  • How much does it cost to charter a yacht in the Bahamas? Charter a yacht in the Bahamas for a luxury boat holiday. It is not a destination for budget travellers.

Yacht charters in the Bahamas can be made with or without a skipper. However, the price of hiring a skipper will be added to your bareboat charter.
  • How much are the marina fees? Marina fees can vary depending on the season, the size of the yacht and the marina, but in general a smaller yacht can cost between 7-10 EUR per foot per week, while a bigger one would cost 10-15 EUR per foot per week.
  • How much does the fuel cost? With an all-inclusive offer you don't have to worry about paying extra for fuel. It is usually included in the original price.
  • How much do you tip your skipper? You should expect to tip your skipper around 20%, but you can always tip more.
  • How do we arrange shopping for our charter? There is usually a supermarket at the marina, that is often more expensive.

Sailing Guide Bahamas

Charter a yacht in the Bahamas to discover hidden bays and beaches, soak up the sun and admire the beautiful architecture. As part of the Caribbean islands, it is one of the destinations that people immediately associate with sailing. This comes as no surprise considering the ideal wind conditions and the stunning coastline.

Things to do and see when sailing in the Bahamas

You might be surprised, but the Bahamas has more to offer than picturesque beaches and remote bays. Discover what the capital Nassau has to offer and where to get the most delicious food, but don’t forget to head out to one of the 700 islands that make up this island state.

Activities in the Bahamas

  • Explore Nassau , the capital of the Bahamas. Discover the city with a guided walking tour or by yourself. There is so much to see. The colourful houses are one of the most stunning features of the city.
  • Sail to one of the many stunning beaches the Bahamas has to offer. Stop by Pink Sands Beach for a bit of a unique experience or anchor in front of Blue Lagoon Island for a classic Caribbean beach day or to learn more about the pirates that were raging in the region in former times.
  • Atlantis Paradise Island Water Park makes for a fun day out in Nassau - not just for families, but also for people who have not yet lost their inner child

  • The Ardastra Gardens & Wildlife Conservation Centre is the Bahamas first zoo. Originally it started as a breeding centre for flamingos as they were becoming scarce here, but today you can find all kinds of other animals in the zoo
  • Go back in time with Pirates of Nassau , a museum where you can learn more about pirates and their rummages in former times. We are sure that you will pick up a fact or two about pirates that you didn’t know before
  • Charter a private yacht when visiting the Bahamas. It is the best way to go around the islands and you can sail to beaches where no-one else is around. Wouldn’t it be a dream come true to have a stunning beach all to yourself?
  • Head to Gold Rock Beach where ‘Pirates of the Caribbeans’ was filmed
  • Visit Pig Beach for an unforgettable beach day. The name has been given to this beach for a reason. A whole bunch of wild pigs live here and are super friendly to anyone coming near them. Otherwise the island is uninhabited. This is definitely a different kind of beach day that you won’t forget
  • Versailles Gardens in the middle of the Caribbean? Yes, you’ve read that correctly. Admire the architecture and lush green gardens. There are no entry fees or opening hours, but it is part of The Ocean Club, a fancy hotel .

Beaches in the Bahamas

  • The Pink Sands Beach in the Bahamas is a special one. Pink shimmering sand makes this a particularly beautiful spot to stop on your sailing vacation.

Explore the history of the Bahamas

Unlike the Seychelles, the Bahamas have been inhabited since around 500 AD. The first settlers arrived from other parts of the Caribbean. The Bahamas were later discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1492, but the first European settlement was only established in 1648 on Eleuthera. As so many other countries colonized by Europeans, the Bahamas also have a terrible past with slavery. The Queen’s staircase is an important building in Nassau, but is also a reminder of slave labour. Around 600 slaves built this staircase between 1793 and 1794.

Visit Parliament Square to admire the stunning architecture and step into the House of Assembly to witness Bahamian politics first hand. If you are lucky, you can watch a live political debate here. All important government buildings are located in this area.

Discover mystical Bahamas

Many myths and legends surround the Bahamas. One of them is the story of a scary sea monster said to live in the caves of Andros. Described as a creature that is half shark and half octopus, it is a legend used to describe the unexplainable disappearance of various ships in the area. Far more likely is a natural phenomenon that can occur at times and make the water swirl so hard that the ships that are just passing by are swallowed, never to be seen again. But one question remains: How do scientists explain the tentacles some eye-witnesses claimed to see?

Sailing conditions in the Bahamas

The Bahamas are part of the Caribbean islands which means that the islands are generally blessed with warm temperatures and sunny weather . However, as the Caribbean covers quite a large territory, the climate can vary on different islands.

While it is wise to avoid the Bahamas during Hurricane season (June-November), the winter months are the perfect time for a sailing adventure in the Caribbean. Between December and April you have ideal wind conditions ranging between 15-25 knots. It is warm, sunny and mostly dry.

If you are planning on sailing to the Bahamas from another location, you should bear in mind that sailing in an open ocean needs a lot of planning and expertise. The wind conditions make it the perfect sailing adventure, but keep in mind that the weather can be quite unpredictable and only experienced sailors should take the risk.

Rent a catamaran in the Bahamas

Pros of renting a catamaran in the Bahamas

You can find yacht rentals in the Bahamas and in different dream destinations around the world on the Nautal website. Flexible cancellation or changes up to 15 days before check-in is allowed on selected boats. Check the conditions established with each boat owner. 

A yacht trip in the Bahamas offers sun, sand, sea and so much relaxation. You will experience freedom like never before when you charter a yacht in the Bahamas, with the licence to explore wherever and whenever you want without restrictions, at a scale and pace that suits you and your party. You can travel from port to port, enjoying adventures and excursions in your own time and at your own speed. 

With temperatures above 68ºF the whole year round and over 700 beautiful islands, cays and atolls forming spectacular archipelagos for exploring and relaxing in paradise, yacht vacations in the Bahamas are the optimal choice for seeing the best of both worlds. View the islands from a constant panoramic point of view, as you cruise by and admire the spectacular scenery while sunbathing on the comfortable sun pads with a cocktail. The crystal-clear water surrounding your Bahamas yacht rental is a sublime temperature for cooling off and swimming with stingrays and beautiful tropical fish by the coral reefs. 

What is the price of a yacht charter in the Bahamas? 

Chartering a yacht in the Bahamas costs from $4,140 per day in high season and from $24,500 per week. Yachts are generally rented with a captain and the most luxurious vessels come with a crew. Check the mandatory and included extras with the owner. Some factors that can influence the price are the type of boat, length, age, capacity, season, duration of charter, with or without a skipper, extras, etc. 

Charter a yacht with a skipper 

Do not worry if you are not confident in your navigation skills: you are easily able to embark on a skippered yacht trip in the Bahamas. Your skipper will likely be a local who will get you safely where you want to go and back again. While the sailing conditions in and around the Bahamas are generally mild with steady winds and calm seas, there are moments when storms can blow in, which is where the beauty of having a practised skipper in charge is beneficial. You can head to the cabin to stay dry and cosy while the captain expertly returns you all safely to dry land. 

If you choose to charter a yacht with a crew as well, you are guaranteed a trip of luxury.  A crew will typically consist of a couple of hostesses, a cook, and a couple of deckhands, all of whom will work their hardest to ensure that you have an amazing trip in which you don’t have to worry about anything other than relaxing.

What weather and sailing conditions can you expect when you charter a yacht in the Bahamas? 

The weather in the Bahamas is subject to great seasonal variation. You will typically see the hottest temperatures for your yacht trip in the Bahamas in August when the temperature can get as high as 88°F.  In contrast, January is the coldest month, with temperatures dipping as low as 70°F. 

The wettest month in the Bahamas, which usually sees around 1.9 inches of rain, is October .  On the other hand, if you go in December , which usually sees just 0.4 inches, you are guaranteed plenty of sun.  November is the windiest month, with wind speeds getting as high as 14.9 mph.  September is usually the calmest month for your Bahamas yacht trip, with wind speeds reaching just 11.8 mph.

When is the best time to charter a yacht in the Bahamas? 

Although you can sail in the Bahamas throughout the year, we recommend that you book your Bahamas yacht charter for some time between December and April.  During this period, the weather is warm and it falls outside of the hurricane season, which runs from June until November.  This guarantees that you will encounter mostly calm waters, perfect for setting sail.  If you want to avoid the crowds, we recommend that you go towards the end of this period, from March to April, as during these months, there will also be lower prices and more boat availability. 

What can I do with a yacht charter in the Bahamas? 

Schooner Cays are 100% on our list. Explore this gorgeous sand bank and clear water area or alternatively, organise a private helicopter or jet experience and view this spectacular natural beauty from above.  

The southeast of the Bahamas is fairly empty in comparison to other island zones, so if you are looking to cruise the crystal seas on a tranquil and exclusive yacht charter, this can be done best here. 

On the other hand, if you are looking to stay close to civilisation, Great Exuma has touristic beaches and locations with all sorts of wildlife such as swimming pigs (yes, really!!), iguanas and other fascinating species.  

Nassau the capital of the island chain, offers wonderful shopping opportunities, crisp white sandy beaches and stunning diving locations offshore where you can marvel at coral reefs, marine life and the beauty of the aquamarine sea. It is probably one of the largest communities in the Bahamas, with most of our yacht rentals based there. Delve into its vibrant culture and ample local delicacies in bars and restaurants waiting to prove how delicious this Caribbean cuisine really is!  

Treasure Cay on Great Abaco Island is a remote and truly breathtaking place where there are hardly any crowds. The turquoise sea and the snow-white sand are truly a pleasure to admire from your yacht rental.  

The Mermaid Reef diving spot near the Harbour View Marina Marsh Harbour is very reputable and a fantastic place for exploring the underwater sea world and delightfully peculiar coral reef. 

At the tip of Great Abaco, Eastern Shores is picture-perfect with its stunning houses lining the coastline. You can rent these fabulous houses, as well. Many of them have their own exclusive access to the sea through a private pontoon. 

Green Cay Island is only accessible by boat – there is no airport – so travelling to the island on your rental yacht is a great way to explore the area and enjoy the sight of green turtles getting on with their lives and ignoring the intrusion of people into their domain.  

Paradise Cove is a little slice of heaven on earth, close to the stunning Deadman's Reef which is best seen from a boat. Make sure your camera is waterproof: you will not want to lose these photos!  

Then move around the island to beautiful Port Lucaya, where you can explore the market and admire Bahaman life at its leisurely best. 

The Bahamas have a treat in store for you with its spectacular cuisine and cooling cocktails full of fruity flavour! The Bahama Mama is our favourite cocktail with an overwhelmingly good combination of rum, coconut rum, lime juice, pineapple, orange and grenadine!  

The cuisine on these paradisiac islands is uplifting and spicy with seafood playing a special part and lemon, pepper, garlic and curry doing their important bit, too. 

Lobster, stews and grilled fish are all local delicacies served here and “the conch” is a mollusc dish which can be cooked in various ways. 

What ports are in the Bahamas? 

You can rent a yacht in the Bahamas in several different locations. Our most popular being Nassau. 

Here is a list of other yachts rentals in the Bahamas: 

  • Albany Marina
  • Abaco Island
  • George Town

Recent reviews in the bahamas.

We loved our day with Captain Morgan and Chris so much. They took us to a couple of snorkeling spots, swimming with the pigs, and lunch at Footprints Beach Bar and Grill on Rose Island. It was absolutely beautiful. We were having such an awesome time that we extended our trip another hour. It was such a great day! We can't wait to do it again.

Captain Frank was amazing! He was extremely knowledgeable of the area and went above and beyond to make sure we had a fabulous experience and he succeeded! Our day with Captain Frank was the best day of our 7 day visit to the Bahamas. Thank you again for an unbelievable day!

I booked a trip on very short notice and everything went very well. The crew put together a trip based on our wishes. We did the pig swim, a bunch of snorkeling with Nemo like fish as well as turtles. Then a remote beach restaurant with some Tiki huts, volleyball, signature drinks and fresh fish on the menu

Captain C is seriously the best!! He was knowledgeable, kind and so helpful! We had the most amazing time! We booked the 9am-1pm excursion, which I was honestly hesitant that we could get everything done in the 4 hour window. I was wrong! Captain C started our adventure at a beautiful coral with tons of fish for us to snorkel. We then headed over to pig island, we were the ONLY PEOPLE THERE! We got to spend about 25 minutes with the pigs, it was seriously something we’ll never forget. After we finished there we loaded up to head to the most beautiful private island you can imagine. Lastly he took us over to snorkel with the sea turtles! Nothing felt rushed, it was the perfect amount of time at each stop. If you’re thinking about booking, do it! It’s worth every penny. All 3 kids (ages 13 down to 6) had a magical day and kept telling us that it was the most perfect day!

Our trip was great. We departed late due to an issue with the second boat in the fleet but they made it right by extending our time and even providing one of the highlights of our trip with a ride back to our cruise port. Captain Perez, Captain Bigs and first mate Trey were absolutely great! Our entire group had an amazing time!

Rent 25' Bertram Powerboat for sightseeing, snorkeling and fishing in Nassau

Ednie is a very experienced, knowledgeable captain your family will feel safe heading into the wild blue sea, whether it’s your first time or you’re an avid boater. The boat is very comfortable and well appointed. He tailors your day to suit your family by communicating well in advance of your trip to best plan your day. In fact, it’s one of the reason we selected him…most other captains on this site that I contacted, with one other exception, simply sent a canned response. Ednie reached out directly and quickly with messages letting me know he’d clearly read my inquiry and was thinking about my family’s particular situation. So I had two boys with me, small party of three, and all they wanted to do was fish. And all we did WAS fish! Ednie knew great spots for us to start, had plenty of bait, knew how to entice with which bait, plenty of gear in good condition. The boat is comfortably appointed for sitting in sun or shade. Bring your phone and hookup to his Bluetooth speaker system (also very good) for tunes all day. He gave the boys good tips on how to improve their technique since they were unaccustomed to fishing in these conditions, and both heeded his advice and caught well! Ednie knew just when to try a new spot and had no problem accommodating. He also pointed out lots of interesting bits of info about the area while we were moving about. Pickup and drop off were well coordinated and easy. The entire trip was an overwhelming success. I would recommend Ednie to anyone with a group under 10 so you have room to mill about and be in and out of the sun.
