Private party boat vs public party cruise
Public party catamarans sell tickets per person and mix several groups on one deck, with fixed music, a fixed route and fixed timing. A private party boat is booked per boat: your playlist, your guest list and your pace.
For a group of ten or more, the cost per person of a private boat often gets close to a shared ticket, and you avoid sharing the dance floor, the bar and the photos with strangers.
Who books party charters
Bachelor and bachelorette groups, milestone birthdays, reunions of friends, destination-wedding guests the day before the ceremony, and corporate teams celebrating a result. Each group gets a different plan: some want loud music and a sandbar, others want a relaxed sail with drinks and snorkeling.
A typical party day on the water
Pickup from your hotel or villa where applicable, then boarding at the agreed departure point. The first stretch is usually a cruise along the coast with music on. Most groups then anchor at a shallow sandbar or the natural pool, where the water is waist-deep and calm, and spend time in the water.
Full-day plans can add a beach stop with lunch. On the way back, many groups time the return with the late-afternoon light for photos. The exact route depends on the port, the boat and the sea on the day.
Choosing the right boat for a party
Large catamarans offer the most open deck space, shade and stability, which matters when a group is standing, dancing and moving around. Motor yachts suit smaller groups who want a more upscale feel and indoor space. Speedboats are fast but not built for parties.
Drinks, food, music and decoration
Drinks, food, decorations, a DJ or photographer are arranged as optional extras. Tell us the theme (bride-to-be sash, birthday banner, matching shirts) and we check what the crew can prepare. [Confirm current drink packages and whether guests may bring their own alcohol.]
Safety and responsible fun
The captain has the final word on safety. Life jackets are on board, swimming happens only at approved stops and the crew may limit swimming for guests who have been drinking heavily. Glass bottles are usually discouraged on deck. [Confirm operator alcohol and glass policy.]
Timing and booking tips
Weekends, holidays and high season (roughly December to April) book up fastest. Send your date, group size, hotel and the vibe you want on WhatsApp, and we reply with suitable boats and a final price.
