Catering vs Private Chef: Which to Choose

Delivered platters or a chef cooking live on board

Catering means food is prepared in advance by our 5-star chef team and delivered to the yacht ready to serve, the most popular option for birthday parties, bachelorette charters and day events. A private chef comes on board and cooks each course fresh in the galley, better suited to a dinner cruise or a premium evening charter. We help you pick the right fit for your group and occasion.

We had an amazing experience with Crown Yachts Miami. The crew and captain were friendly, professional and made sure we had the best time. We cruised past Star Island and later stopped at a sandbar to swim. Such a great day, thank you!

It was our first time exploring Miami by yacht and it was one of the best experiences we've had. The crew took great care of us the entire time. They were super friendly and patient. We stopped at multiple spots to take photos and the captain was more than happy to adjust the route whenever we wanted. Marinda also helped capture so many great moments for us, which made the whole experience even better. We will absolutely be returning!

Booked a Sunseeker yacht in South Beach last month and it was amazing. The yacht looked incredible and the whole setup was perfectly arranged. Everything was on point from the moment we arrived. Our captain Ben was also very friendly and professional. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing experience with Crown Yachts Miami! They took care of every item on our list and the yacht was even nicer than we anticipated. 10/10 would recommend for a top-notch experience in Miami. Communication was also smooth.

We rented the 66ft Azimut during our trip to Miami and it was honestly one of the best days of our vacation. Everything was smooth from the start. We ordered food and drinks ahead of time, and when we arrived, everything was already set up on the yacht and super fresh. The drinks were already chilled in the ice box, which was perfect. We had an amazing time out on the water, everything was exactly how we hoped it would be. Definitely recommend Crown Yachts Miami if you're trying to have a fun day out with friends. Would 100% book again!

FAQ

Fort Lauderdale Yacht Catering FAQ

How much does yacht catering cost in Fort Lauderdale?
Yacht catering in Fort Lauderdale from Crown Yachts starts from around $3.60 for individual items and from $30 per person for a full catering package. Platters start at $48, and a full spread for a group of 6 to 8 guests typically runs $200 to $400 depending on menu selections. Seafood and premium items such as caviar and beef tenderloin are priced individually. Contact our team for a custom quote based on your group size and occasion.
Can I rent a yacht with catering included in Fort Lauderdale?
Yes. We arrange yacht rental with catering in Fort Lauderdale as a single, seamless booking. You choose the yacht and the menu, and we coordinate delivery and setup with your captain so everything is ready when you board. Catering is a fully optional add-on, so you can book a charter with or without it.
Which marinas do you deliver catering to in Fort Lauderdale?
We deliver catering to all major Fort Lauderdale marinas including Bahia Mar Yachting Center, Las Olas Marina, Pier Sixty-Six Marina, Lauderdale Marina, Hall of Fame Marina, Cooley's Landing Marina on the New River, and Sunrise Harbor Marina. Contact us to confirm delivery timing for your specific marina.
How far in advance should we order catering for a yacht party?
We recommend ordering catering for your yacht party at least 48 to 72 hours before your charter. For large groups, custom menus, or premium items such as caviar and seafood platters, 1 to 2 weeks notice is ideal. We also accommodate last-minute requests, so contact our team directly and we will do our best.
What is the difference between catering and a private chef?
Catering means food is prepared in advance by our 5-star chef team and delivered to the yacht ready to serve. It is the most popular option for birthday parties, bachelorette charters and day events. A private chef comes on board with you, cooks fresh in the galley, and serves each course throughout the trip. The private chef experience is more formal and better suited to romantic dinners and premium evening charters.
Can menus be customized for dietary requirements?
Yes. Our team can customize menus to accommodate dietary requirements including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal, and specific allergies. We also have a dedicated kids menu for family charters. Share your group's needs and we will build a menu around them.
Can we bring our own food and drinks on board?
Yes, you are welcome to bring your own food and drinks. Most of our Fort Lauderdale charters are BYOB-friendly. That said, our curated catering menus take the stress out of planning and give your guests a premium on-water dining experience from the moment they board.
Can you arrange catering for large group yacht parties?
Yes. Our catering packages scale from intimate groups of 4 to 6 up to large groups of 50 or more across single or multiple yachts. All platters and menu items are clearly portioned so you can order exactly what your group needs. For large-group events, our team helps you build a full catering plan.
