Why a yacht for Art Basel
- Art Week traffic between Miami Beach, the Design District and Wynwood is heavy; a yacht turns the gap between events into the best part of the day.
- A private yacht is an easy, memorable way to host clients and collectors, from a sunset cruise past Star Island to a full afternoon on the bay.
- Departures from Miami Beach marinas keep you close to the Convention Center and the beach-side fairs.
Planning tips
- Book now: Art Week is one of Miami’s busiest weeks, and the best yachts for 10 or more guests go first.
- Plan around the fair: a 4-hour sunset charter fits neatly after an afternoon at the fair.
- For client hosting, add catering and a bartender; we arrange both.
