Intracoastal Intimacy: Private BYOB Boat Tours Along Deerfield Beach (Without the Massage).
Set off from Deerfield Beach into the narrow, glinting channels of South Florida on a private boat charter operated by Massages On The Water. These BYOB excursions—hosted by Captain Buddha—run along the intracoastal waterways for groups up to six, with a choice of a water-focused visit to a popular sandbar for swimming and snorkeling or a dry tour past millionaire mansions and dolphin‑and manatee-rich waters; the operator provides a cooler with ice, snorkel gear, inflatables and a GoPro 12 with photos sent after the trip.

Sandbar Anchors: Swim, Snorkel, Float
On the Water Adventure the boat drops anchor at a popular sandbar where guests can hop off to walk, swim, snorkel and float; snorkel gear and inflatables are provided at no extra charge.
Millionaire Mansions & Playful Dolphins
The Dry Tour threads alongside yachts and waterfront estates while offering chances to see dolphins and manatees in the same channels where the local wildlife forages and plays.
BYOB, Cooler, and a GoPro for the Ride
These private charters are BYOB; the operator supplies a cooler with ice and some bottled water, complimentary snorkel gear and inflatables, and a waterproof GoPro 12—any photos or videos taken during the trip are sent to guests at no additional cost.
What the day feels like
How the Charter Feels
The trip unfolds like a compact, private coastal cruise: the boat moves along the intracoastal, anchors at shallow sandbar pockets for swims and snorkeling, or eases past high‑end waterfront homes and marine traffic while guests scan for dolphins and manatees. Music, BYOB conviviality and a relaxed captain-driven rhythm keep the outing informal and personal.
