Top Yachting in Florida

If you're planning to rent a boat, book in advance. I waited too long and missed out on a great opportunity!

I suggest arriving around 10 AM to snag a good spot for the best views and to avoid the midday crowds.

Take a walk along the docks and chat with local boaters; they have the best tips on hidden spots and local adventures.

Make sure to explore the area around the marina! There are some nice walking paths and parks nearby that offer great views. I stumbled upon one and it was a perfect spot for some relaxation after a day on the water.

If you're renting a boat, I suggest booking in advance, especially on weekends. It can get super busy, and I missed out on an amazing sunset cruise because I waited too long!

Check out the local seafood spots nearby – they have some great deals on fresh catches! I found a restaurant just walking distance from the marina that had happy hour specials, and it was a highlight of my trip.

My advice is to talk to the locals! They can give you insider tips on hidden gems nearby that aren’t in the guidebooks. I wish I’d done that sooner.

If you're not renting a yacht, consider bringing your own snacks and drinks. I spent way too much at the marina cafes and could’ve saved a lot!

I think you should explore the walking paths around the marina. It was so relaxing and way less crowded than the dock area.
