In 2026, Hollywood offers competitive pricing: Pontoons and Party Boats average $100–$250 per hour; Sailboats range from $150 to $450 per hour; and Luxury Motor Yachts typically range from $350 to $1,500+ per hour including a captain. For a full-day private experience, expect to spend between $800 and $5,500 depending on the vessel's size and amenities.
The 'Hollywood Highlight' is a trip to the Haulover Sandbar, just a short cruise south, for a quintessential South Florida water party. You should also cruise the Intracoastal Waterway to admire 'Millionaire's Row,' explore the mangrove trails of West Lake Park, and enjoy a sunset view of the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk from the ocean side.
Hollywood's waterways are part of a high-traffic maritime corridor with strict 'no-wake' zones and frequent drawbridge openings (like the Dania Beach Blvd and Sheridan St bridges). A USCG-licensed captain (usually included or available for $50–$100/hr) handles the technical navigation and radio comms, letting you focus on the music and drinks while they manage the local currents and bridge schedules.
The most popular hubs are Loggerhead Marina - Hollywood, the Hollywood Marina (near the bridge), and various docks near the Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort. Many hosts also offer convenient pickups at private residential docks along the North Lake and South Lake areas for a more 'VIP' experience.
Yes! Hollywood is the perfect 'middle ground.' A 45-minute cruise south brings you to the heart of Biscayne Bay and Downtown Miami, while a 30-minute cruise north takes you to the 'Venice of America' canals in Fort Lauderdale. These are the most popular full-day itineraries for 2026.
Most mid-sized rentals are BYOB, but Hollywood is a premier spot for 'Dock-and-Dine.' You can have your captain pull up to waterfront staples like GG’s Waterfront Grill or Le Tub. For 2026, many luxury yachts on Sailo also offer catering add-ons featuring local Floribbean cuisine or fresh seafood platters if requested in advance.
If you were born on or after January 1, 1988, Florida law requires a Boating Safety Education ID Card. If you book a captained rental, you are exempt as the captain is the legal operator. For bareboat (self-drive) rentals, this card is mandatory; visitors can obtain a 90-day temporary certificate online for a small fee.
For standard 2-to-4-hour Intracoastal tours or sandbar trips, fuel is frequently included in the total price. For full-day motorboat charters or high-speed runs to Miami, fuel is typically charged based on consumption at the end of the trip (the 'full-to-full' policy). Always verify this in the listing's 'Price Includes' section.
Standard private '6-pack' charters are limited to 6 guests, while larger luxury '12-pack' yachts allow up to 12 (sometimes 13). For larger celebrations like a corporate event or a bachelorette party, Hollywood features Inspected Passenger Vessels available on Sailo that can carry up to 30 or 50+ guests.
Safety is the priority. If the captain determines that conditions (high winds, heavy fog, or lightning) make it unsafe to sail, your Sailo host will work with you to reschedule or provide a full refund. Because much of Hollywood’s boating is in the protected Intracoastal, trips can often proceed even if the open ocean is too choppy for offshore cruising
