MIAMI BEACH BOAT RENTAL FIELD GUIDE
Stiltsville by Private Charter: A Two‑Hour Biscayne Bay ULTIMATE Experience
A privately guided, two‑hour charter that pushes past Miami’s tourist shoreline to Stiltsville, Biscayne National Park and the bay’s hidden corners—this guide lays out what you’ll see, how it flows, and what to pack.
Stiltsville by Private Charter: A Two‑Hour Biscayne Bay ULTIMATE Experience.
Ocean Force Adventures’ Private Biscayne Bay ULTIMATE Experience is a guided, private boat charter that condenses Miami’s coastal contrasts into a focused two‑hour outing: celebrity mansions and Star Island one moment, historic Stiltsville and Biscayne National Park the next. The tour is built for small private groups and aims to move beyond standard sightseeing to the bay’s lesser‑seen places and natural encounters.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Stiltsville: Colorful houses above the bay
Seven distinctive, raised houses cluster on pilings in Biscayne Bay, relics of Prohibition‑era speakeasies and now managed through historic preservation efforts—Stiltsville is a central draw and a signature stop on the tour.
Dolphins and marine life on a popular dolphin tour
The outing frequently encounters wild dolphins and other marine life; operators report seeing dolphins so often the tour has become known as Miami’s most popular dolphin tour.
From celebrity islands to the Miami River
The itinerary moves through the familiar sights—celebrity mansions, Star Island, Fisher Island—and then carries farther to Port Miami, the historic Miami River, Key Biscayne and Scarface Mansion for a fuller picture of the bay and city edges.

You’ll move from shoreside glamour to low‑slung park landscapes and stilts‑above‑water structures, with time carved out for wildlife watching and interpretive commentary.
