Yacht charter in Cancun
A private yacht charter in Cancun means the whole boat is yours for the hours you book, with the captain and crew included. Our fleet carries 6 to 30 guests, and a four-hour charter starts at $600 USD for the boat, not per person. We operate our own boats, so you are booking with the people who run the charter.
What a yacht charter in Cancun costs
| Boat | 4 hours | Split between them |
|---|---|---|
| Hatteras 60 · 28 guests | $1,200 USD | $43 USD each |
| Sea Ray 50 · 17 guests | $880 USD | $52 USD each |
| Sea Ray 46 Flybridge · 15 guests | $800 USD | $53 USD each |
| Sea Ray 50 · 18 guests | $1,000 USD | $56 USD each |

Two-hour charters start at $300 USD and six-hour charters at $1,100 USD. Prices are for the whole boat. A dock fee of $14 USD per person is paid separately at the marina and is not collected by us. Crew gratuity is not included; 10 to 15% is customary.
29 of our 57 boats carry a published price. The other 28 are quoted when you ask, because their cost moves with the season and with availability, and publishing a fixed number for them would be inaccurate. See the full price breakdown.
Where a Cancun charter goes
The standard run is north to Isla Mujeres: about 40 minutes across the channel, anchoring off Playa Norte for swimming, with a stop at the reef for snorkelling. Four hours covers the crossing, a long anchor stop and the return. Six and eight hours add a second stop, a longer stay at the island, or a sunset return. Your captain sets the route on the day around the weather and what your group wants.
What is included and what is not
Every charter includes the boat to yourselves, the captain and crew, bottled water and ice. Food, alcohol and soft drinks are not included as standard.
We sell those separately and arrange them ourselves: food and catering on board, drinks and bar service, jet ski rental, paddle boards, floating mats and inflatables, photography and ground transport. Tell us what you want when you ask for your date and it is quoted together with the charter, so there is one price and one team. What all-inclusive actually means here.
Where to start
Choosing the boat for your group
Capacity is the first filter: the number on each boat page is the maximum the vessel is licensed to carry, and children count as guests. Groups of six to fifteen usually take a Sea Ray 46 or 50; sixteen to twenty a Sea Ray 60, Sunseeker 60 or Hatteras 60; larger groups and mega yachts are quoted individually. Browse the whole fleet, with capacity, hours and price on every boat.
Where charters depart from
There is no single departure marina: it depends on the boat, because size and draft decide where a vessel is berthed. Most of our fleet leaves from Marina Sunset Lagoon or Marina Puesta del Sol in the Cancun Hotel Zone. Other boats leave from Puerto Cancun, Marina Aquatours, Marina Margarita, Marina Nautilus, Playa Las Perlas, Hacienda del Mar, Marina Fish Fritanga, V&V Marina, Marina Flamingos in Puerto Juarez, or Costa Mujeres. Your confirmation states the exact marina, its address and your boarding time. Check in 30 minutes before departure.
We build the day with you
You charter the boat; the experience we put together with you. Everything below is quoted alongside the charter, arranged by our own team and delivered as one price, so you are not coordinating suppliers the day before.
- Food and catering on board
- Drinks and bar service
- Jet ski rental
- Paddle boards
- Floating mats and inflatables
- Photography
- Ground transport to and from your hotel
Tell us the group, the date and what you want on board. We come back with the boat price and each extra listed separately, so you can see every line and drop anything you do not want.
Why book with us
- We operate our own boats. No middlemen: you book with the people who run the charter.
- No deposit on most boats. You pay on the day of departure, cash or card. Each boat page says whether yours needs a deposit or a confirmation of attendance.
- Free cancellation up to 24 hours before. No charge, no argument.
- Bad weather means a new date. The captain or the port authority decides on the day. You do not absorb the weather.
- One team. Boat, food, drinks, jet skis, inflatables, photos and transport all come from the same quote.
Booking, deposits and cancellation
Most of our boats need no deposit: you pay on the day of departure, in cash or by card. Some boats need a deposit or a confirmation of attendance to hold the date, and the boat page says which applies before you book. You can cancel at no cost up to 24 hours before departure. If the captain or the port authority decides it is not safe to sail, your charter is rescheduled, so you do not absorb the weather. Full booking conditions.
