Why Charter to Beer Can Island?

For guests looking for a true island getaway without leaving Tampa Bay, Beer Can Island offers one of the area’s most memorable charter destinations.

Your Day at Beer Can Island & Water-Time Amenities
Imagine stepping aboard your private yacht at Harbour Island Marina in downtown Tampa. As the skyline fades into the distance, you’ll cruise across beautiful Tampa Bay toward Beer Can Island. Once anchored, the day is yours. Spend the afternoon floating beside the yacht, swimming in the warm Gulf waters, listening to your favorite playlist, enjoying handcrafted cocktails, or gathering with friends on the flybridge while lunch is prepared below deck. When it’s time to cool off, step onto the hydraulic swim platform and enjoy easy access to the water. After swimming, rinse off, change into dry clothes in your private suite, and relax in the air-conditioned salon before heading back outside to watch dolphins, seabirds, and passing boats. The experience combines the comfort of a luxury resort with the freedom of exploring Tampa Bay by yacht.
One of the highlights of every Beer Can Island charter is transforming your yacht into a private floating playground with our water-time amenities:
Hydraulic Swim Platform
The yacht’s hydraulic swim platform lowers close to the water, creating effortless access for swimming and relaxing throughout the day.
Floating Splash Pad
Stretch out on the floating splash pad while remaining partially submerged in the refreshing waters of Tampa Bay. It’s the perfect place to cool off while staying close to the yacht.
Floating Dock
Expand your space on the water with a floating dock that creates an additional area for lounging, socializing, or simply enjoying the sunshine.
Aquaglide Soaker Lounge
Gather with family and friends in the Aquaglide Soaker Lounge, an inflatable floating lounge designed for relaxing conversations while surrounded by calm bay waters.
Together, these floating amenities create your own private waterfront lounge at Beer Can Island.
Luxury Amenities Onboard
Between swims and time spent on the island, enjoy the comforts of a luxury yacht designed for all-day cruising. Your charter includes spacious indoor and outdoor seating, multiple sunbathing areas, a fully equipped galley, flybridge bar and grill, air-conditioned living spaces, and private accommodations for changing throughout the day.
