The Islander Private Charter

Your Boat. Your Adventure. Your Way.

Experience Panama City Beach from the water aboard The Islander, one of the area’s most spacious and versatile private charter vessels. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, entertaining clients, hosting a family reunion, or simply gathering friends for an unforgettable day on the water, The Islander gives you the freedom to create the perfect private boating experience.

With room for up to 49 passengers, a dedicated captain and crew member, a fully stocked bar, and direct access to Shell Island, this is more than a boat rental—it’s a private floating venue designed entirely around your group.

Why Rent Multiple Boats?

Keep Everyone Together

Large families and groups often find themselves splitting up across several boats just to fit everyone. With The Islander, your entire group stays together, making it easier to socialize, celebrate, and create memories.

No coordinating multiple vessels. No worrying about keeping everyone together. Just one private boat, one crew, and one incredible experience.

Explore Shell Island

Swim, Snorkel & Relax

One of the highlights of your private charter is the opportunity to visit Shell Island, one of Florida’s most beautiful undeveloped barrier islands.

Our vessel can anchor close to shore, allowing guests easy access to the beach and shallow emerald waters. Spend your time:

• Swimming
• Snorkeling
• Shelling
• Paddle boarding
• Floating in crystal-clear water
• Exploring the beach
• Looking for marine life

Multiple swim ladders make getting in and out of the water simple and convenient for guests of all ages.

Snorkel Equipment Included

Your charter includes snorkel equipment, allowing guests to explore the underwater world around Shell Island. Search for fish, shells, and marine life while enjoying some of the clearest water along the Emerald Coast.

Optional paddle boards are also available for guests who want to explore beyond the shoreline.
