Frequently Asked Questions for Sun, Sea & Just Your Crew — Key West Private Boat Charter

Question 1

Is there free parking?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we have free parking on site! If the available spaces are full please utilize street parking. Parking at the Stock Rock Cafe is prohibited.

Question 2

What time should we arrive?

Accepted Answer

Please arrive 30 minutes prior to your charter. This allows us ample time to load the boat and provide a safety briefing for your charter.

Question 3

How do I choose my Captain?

Accepted Answer

Under U.S. Bareboat Charter Law, our charters operate as a private vessel rental, which means you are required to select a licensed captain for your trip. Don't worry — we make it easy! Simply browse our roster of experienced, USCG-licensed captains and choose the one that's the best fit for your group. Each captain brings their own personality, local knowledge, and expertise to make your experience truly one of a kind. Once you've picked your captain, they'll take care of everything — from navigating the best spots to keeping your crew safe and having a blast on the water. Your adventure, your captain, your way!

Question 4

How much does the captain cost and how do I pay them?

Accepted Answer

Captain fees are paid directly to your captain of choice and are separate from your charter booking. Captains charge a flat rate of $50 per hour, so for our 4-hour charter that's $200 total. Payment is made directly to your captain via cash or Cash App — simple, easy, and hassle-free. We recommend reaching out to your chosen captain ahead of your trip to confirm availability and get everything squared away before your big day on the water!
