Rent a Boat in Jacksonville

Located in Northern Florida just south of the Georgia border, Jacksonville sits just inland from the Atlantic ocean on the St. John’s River. Area waterways provide easy access to the Atlantic, Lake George, Doctor’s Lake, and the famed Intercoastal Waterway, while the city’s abundant launch ramps and marinas make Jacksonville, also known as “Jax,” a great place for sailing and power boating. 

Jacksonville features great fishing, with a wide variety of species both offshore in the deep waters of the Atlantic and inshore in the St John’s River and other area waterways as well as great snorkeling and diving, wakeboarding and tubing, kitesurfing, and much more. 

With more than 1,110 miles of interior shoreline, easy access to the Atlantic, and so many opportunities for aquatic adventures, it’s easy to see why Jacksonville is a great destination for boaters. 

What To Know

Jacksonville’s easy access to both inshore and offshore boating make a few different boat styles popular, which include – 

Pontoon boats , runabouts, bowriders, and deck boats are common options for inshore cruises, fishing , snorkeling, wakeboarding, and cruising the extensive area waterways.  

Jacksonville’s great offshore fishing makes center consoles and small cruisers popular boat rental options, although larger sportfishing boats and luxury yachts are also commonly seen on the ocean and river. 

Safety Requirements :

Boating License/Education Rules : Anyone born on or after January 1, 1988 who operates a vessel powered by 10 horsepower or more must pass an approved boater safety course and have in his/her possession photographic identification and a boating safety education identification card issued by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

Life Jacket Requirements : Children ages 6 and under must wear a personal floatation device (PFD).

Manatees are a frequent sight in the inland waterways such as the St. John’s River and ICW so remember to watch for these protected creatures, protection zones, and your speed when present.  

Visit the  Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission to learn more.

Weather Conditions

Jacksonville has beautiful coastal weather all year long, with summer high’s in the 90s, although the area’s ocean breezes keep the heat from becoming oppressive. Jacksonville can also see more clouds and rain in the summer than other times of the year. 

Spring and fall seasons bring milder weather, while winter temps usually stay in the 50s and 60s. Winter temperatures can occasionally drop below freezing, although it doesn’t happen often or for too long. 

Since Jacksonville is not located directly on the coast, the city is a little better protected and less likely to see any effects from hurricane season. 

Avg. Temperature High : July is Jacksonville’s hottest month with temps around 90°F

Avg. Temperature Low : January is the area’s coolest month with temps around 46°F

Avg. Water Temperatures in and around Destin :

83°F in the Summer (June, July, August)

68°F in Spring (March, April, May)

76°F in Fall (September, October, November)

65°F in Winter (December, January, February)

Things to Do in Jacksonville by Boat

Visit Exchange Club Island

Located in the middle of the St. John’s River just to the east of Jacksonville, Exchange Club Island is only accessible by water. Sitting partially beneath the Matthews Bridge, the 34-acre island features a winding nature trail, picnic shelters, and a place to dock. 

Tie up your boat and walk the island, bring food and refreshments, check out the wildlife, or just sit and watch the other boats go by. While a visit to Exchange Club Island is a peaceful way to spend the day, getting there and back by boat is half the fun. 

There is no bad time to visit the island. However, be aware that there are no facilities or shops on the island so watch the weather and be sure to take plenty of food, water, and sunscreen along.

Cruise the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW)

Jacksonville is home to 40 miles of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway,  which runs more than 3000 miles from Boston all the way around the tip of Florida and up to Texas. Consisting of natural waterways connected with man-made channels, the Intracoastal Waterway, or ICW, provides boaters with a beautiful way to cruise from place to place or just spend a day enjoying the scenery and wildlife.  

Jacksonville ICW cruisers can see beautiful houses and abundant wildlife including herons, egrets, manatees, and more. A cruise along the ICW can also include swimming in beautiful coves, and exploring the coast, or it can just be a great way to enjoy a beautiful day on the water.

Fish inshore on the St. John’s River or Offshore in the Atlantic

Sitting near the mouth of the St. John’s River where it connects with the Atlantic, Jacksonville offers boaters the choice to fish offshore for big stuff, or in the rivers and waterways when the weather makes it a challenge to head for deeper water. 

Jacksonville’s abundant waterways and fish species even make it easy to fish from a kayak if the mood strikes. 

Deep Sea Fishing in the Atlantic (Offshore)

Target species : Marlin, sailfish, mahi-mahi, tuna, wahoo, snapper, mackerel, cobia, shark

Seasonality : March through November are best for many species. Although things cool down in the winter, there is still plenty to catch year-round

Fishing the St. John’s and Inland Waterways (Inshore)

Target species : Trout, redfish, sheepshead, black drum, tarpon, snook, flounder

Seasonality : There is something to catch all year long

Boat selection :Pontoon boats, center consoles, aluminum fishing boats, flats skiffs, runabouts

Where to Go Boating in Jacksonville

Fort George Inlet

Located just north of the St. John’s River where the Fort George River meets the Atlantic, Fort George Inlet is a sheltered area just off the ocean and very popular hotspot for boaters. Surrounded by a sandy, hooked-shaped peninsula with sandy beaches and crystal-clear water, the large, open basin provides a great spot for wakeboarding, tubing, fishing, or whatever watery activity you prefer. There are also plenty of areas to explore by boat.

Nearby Marinas : Fort George Island Marina, Morningstar Marinas, Harbortown Marina

Closest Boat Ramp : Cedar Point Boat Ramp, Mayport Boat Ramp, Joe Carlucci Sisters Creek Boat Ramp

Wake Zone : Although none are listed, watch for signs on all Jacksonville waters designating an area as “Idle Speed – No Wake” or “Slow Down – Minimum Wake.”

ProTips : Fort George Inlet is a very popular destination for area boaters and can get crowded on holiday weekends. Also, beware of the inlet’s many shallow sandbars. 

Lat/Long : 30.41781 N, -81.41305 W 

Google Maps Link

Bayard Point

Located approximately 17 miles south of the city on the St. John’s River, Bayard Point is another popular Jacksonville boating destination. Bayard Point is also the site of Jacksonville’s unofficial holiday, Boaters Skip Day, when hundreds of boat owners “play hooky” from school or work to meet up and enjoy a day on the water. With it’s natural beauty and large, shallow sandbar, the area is perfect for rafting up with other boats or finding a place to beach and explore the natural surroundings. 

Nearby Marinas : Black Creek Marina and Bait Shop, Amity Marina, Julington Creek Marina

Closest Boat Ramp : Shands Boat Ramp, Palmo Boat Ramp

Wake Zone : No wake zones and manatee areas exist throughout the St. Johns River, watch for signs designating an area as No Wake or Minimum Wake and understand what they mean. 

Tips : The Bayard Point area and the sandbar is a very popular destination for area boaters so it can get crowded on holiday weekends.  

Lat/Long : 29.93982 N, -81.60419 W

Jacksonville Beach

On a beautiful, sunny day, there are few better places to be than out on the ocean. For Jacksonville boaters, going out to the Atlantic is as easy as running up the St. John’s River or driving to a ramp out near Jacksonville Beach and hitting the open water. Cruising along Jacksonville Beach gives boaters and sailors plenty to see and do, whether the plan calls for sightseeing, fishing, or diving the wrecks and reefs off the beach. 

Nearby Marinas : Fort George Island Marina, Morningstar Marinas, Harbortown Marin

Closest Boat Ramp : Mayport Boat Ramp, Jim King Boat Ramp, Joe Carlucci Sisters Creek Boat Ramp, Oak Harbor Public Boat Ramp

Tips : The Florida sun can catch people off-guard if they are not used to it. Be sure to bring plenty of food, water, and sunscreen for a great day on the water. 

Lat/Long : 30.30960 N, -81.38878 W

Yacht Rental Jacksonville

Oh, the splendor of Jacksonville's waters, its maritime traditions, and the sight of a beautifully crafted yacht grazing its waves - truly a spectacle to behold. Yet, it's not merely the aesthetics that draw us in, it's the intricate dance of nature and human ingenuity.

Why Rent a Yacht in Jacksonville?

It's the rhythmic hum of the Atlantic Ocean, whispering stories of its depth and diversity, that beckons us towards this coastal spectacle. Jacksonville's coastline is not simply a geographical boundary; it is an ecological marvel, a union of land and sea, underpinning an environment rich in biodiversity. As you traverse its waterways on your rented yacht, you're not just voyaging through water, you are traversing through centuries of natural evolution and human history.

The St. John's River, for instance, the city's aquatic spine, offers you a unique journey through a range of ecosystems, starting from its marshy headwaters and meandering through to the expansive Atlantic. As you sail down this river, you witness a stunning tableau of flora and fauna, alongside a fascinating display of human architecture.

Why rent a yacht in Jacksonville? The answer lies not just in the thrill of navigation or the luxury it provides, but in the opportunity it presents - to immerse oneself in an environment where nature's grandeur dances in perfect harmony with human innovation.

Noteworthy Nautical Destinations in Jacksonville

The vast, captivating waterscapes of Jacksonville offer a multitude of exquisite locales to explore on your yacht. Each with its unique charm and story, these destinations invite you on a journey of discovery and appreciation.

🚢 St. John's River

Sailing up the St. John's River, you witness an intriguing amalgamation of the natural and urban landscape. Starting from downtown Jacksonville, you pass by the stunning city skyline, which gradually fades into a dense canopy of cypress and oak trees. You can dock your yacht at the Metropolitan Park Marina to attend events or visit the Museum of Science and History nearby.

🚢 The Jacksonville Beaches

Your yachting adventure in Jacksonville would be incomplete without a venture to its delightful beaches. Anchoring your yacht off the coast of Neptune Beach or Atlantic Beach allows you to indulge in their sandy stretches and clear waters. The vibrant nightlife and restaurants here are also worthy of exploration.

🚢 Fort George Island

Enveloped in rich history and natural beauty, Fort George Island presents a different facet of Jacksonville's charm. You may anchor your yacht at the Kingsley Plantation, a historical marvel dating back to the 19th century. The island's diverse ecosystem, filled with marshes, maritime forests, and wildlife, is another major draw for nature enthusiasts.

🚢Amelia Island

North of Jacksonville, Amelia Island is a worthy detour for any yachting excursion. Its historic downtown, Fernandina Beach, offers quaint Victorian architecture and an array of charming shops and restaurants. Mooring your yacht at the Fernandina Harbor Marina allows you to explore this captivating island and its unique attractions, like the Amelia Island Lighthouse and Fort Clinch State Park.

🚢 The Intracoastal Waterway

Last but certainly not least, the Intracoastal Waterway - a network of rivers, canals, and bays - is a yachting paradise. The meandering waterway offers a multitude of secluded anchorages, perfect for those seeking a peaceful respite. One such gem is the Sisters Creek, a serene tributary lined with mangroves, offering you an idyllic setting to drop your anchor.

🚢 Guana River

A natural haven, Guana River State Park, is an excellent place to anchor your yacht for the day. Its serene waterways lead you into a world of untouched natural beauty, where one can observe an array of bird species, including the roseate spoonbill and wood stork. The Tolomato River offers opportunities for fishing and photography alike.

🚢 Mayport Village

Mayport Village, located at the confluence of the St. Johns River and Atlantic Ocean, is a historic fishing village that maintains its old-world charm. A journey on your yacht to this quaint locale would allow you to engage with the local fishing community, savor the fresh catch of the day, and explore the iconic Mayport Lighthouse.

🚢 Pablo Creek

Nestled between the Intracoastal Waterway and St. Johns River, the Pablo Creek offers a quiet retreat from the bustling city. It is a delightful place to moor your yacht for a day of fishing, or perhaps to enjoy a peaceful sunset with a panoramic view of the surrounding marshlands.

🚢 Black Creek

Sailing up the Black Creek, a tributary of the St. Johns River, brings you closer to Jacksonville's diverse ecology. Its densely forested shores and calm waters are a haven for wildlife, including ospreys, manatees, and alligators. The secluded anchorages here provide an excellent spot for those seeking tranquility amidst nature.

🚢 Ortega River

Finally, the Ortega River offers a blend of upscale residential scenery, marinas, and pockets of unspoiled nature. A journey on your yacht through this river lets you admire some of Jacksonville's finest waterfront homes, interspersed with views of lush flora and fauna. You could dock your yacht at the Ortega Landing Marina to explore the nearby Riverside and Avondale historic districts.

These destinations, nestled within Jacksonville's vast waterscape, offer experiences that extend beyond the thrill of navigation. They serve as gateways to the city's diverse natural environments, its rich history, and vibrant culture - making them must-visit spots on your yachting journey.

Considerations Before Renting a Yacht in Jacksonville

As you consider stepping onto a yacht, there are numerous factors to bear in mind. Firstly, the size and type of vessel are crucial. A mammoth of a ship may seem appealing, but a smaller craft might offer you more intimacy with nature and greater ease in maneuverability, particularly in the narrower tributaries.

The time of the year is also a significant consideration. Jacksonville's climate is generally favorable, but one must be aware of the possible fluctuations and plan accordingly. The warmer months offer a splendid opportunity to observe migratory birds and aquatic life.

Additionally, the knowledge of the local waters and weather patterns is invaluable. While nature can be our greatest ally, it can also become our greatest challenge. Hence, it's crucial to respect its unpredictability and approach it with a sense of curiosity and caution.

Finally, safety must never be overlooked. A yacht, while a testament to human engineering, also carries its risks. Regular maintenance, safety gear, and a well-trained crew are paramount to ensure a safe and enjoyable journey.

The Ideal Yacht for Jacksonville Waters

The choice of a yacht is a deeply personal decision, influenced by a multitude of factors ranging from your sailing expertise to your preference for luxury and comfort. However, when sailing in Jacksonville, one must consider the unique characteristics of the local waters.

A mid-sized motor yacht, between 40 to 60 feet, is an excellent choice for these waters. Their size ensures a fine balance between luxury and agility, making it ideal for both the wide expanse of the Atlantic and the narrower passages of the St. John's River.

These yachts also come equipped with sophisticated navigation systems, making them particularly suitable for areas where weather conditions can change swiftly. The interiors often bear an intimate setting, allowing you to enjoy the comfort while remaining connected to the surrounding environment.

In essence, the best yacht for Jacksonville's waters is one that allows you to immerse yourself in the region's stunning natural beauty while ensuring comfort, safety, and maneuverability.

In conclusion, renting a yacht in Jacksonville is a way to experience a profound journey - a journey that allows us to engage with nature, marvel at human ingenuity, and discover a deeper understanding of our relationship with the environment. As we sail through its waterways, let us appreciate not only the sheer beauty of the journey but also the countless stories these waters have to tell.

Unfurling Further Understanding: Frequently Asked Questions

As we navigate these expansive waters of knowledge, we realize that each ripple of understanding often gives rise to a wave of questions. A curiosity is a compass that guides our exploration and a current that propels us forward on this voyage of discovery. We've anticipated a selection of the inquiries that frequently arise on the topic of yacht rental in Jacksonville and have endeavored to provide thorough and thoughtful responses in the spirit of fostering deeper understanding and appreciation.

What qualifications do I need to rent a yacht in Jacksonville?

To charter a yacht in Jacksonville, you generally need to have a valid boating license or certification, demonstrating your understanding of maritime rules and safety. However, many yacht rental companies offer vessels with a professional crew, thereby eliminating the need for personal qualifications. Always check with the individual charter company regarding their specific requirements.

How much does it typically cost to rent a yacht in Jacksonville?

The cost of yacht rental in Jacksonville varies based on several factors such as the size and type of the yacht, duration of the rental, and whether you require a crew. Generally, prices can range from several hundred to thousands of dollars per day. We recommend reaching out to different charter companies for a more precise estimation tailored to your specific needs.

What services are usually included in a yacht rental?

Yacht rentals typically include the use of the vessel and its onboard amenities. Some rentals come with a full crew, including a captain and steward, while others might only provide a captain or allow for self-captaining. Additional services could include catering, water toys, and pre-planned itineraries. Always confirm what is included with your specific rental agreement.

Can I bring pets aboard a rented yacht?

Policies regarding pets vary widely among yacht rental companies. While some may allow pets onboard, others might have strict no-pet policies. It's always best to ask the rental company about their specific policies and any potential cleaning fees involved before bringing your furry friend on your maritime adventure.

What should I pack for a yacht trip in Jacksonville?

For a yacht trip in Jacksonville, pack clothing suitable for the weather, with layers to accommodate changes in temperature. Sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses are essential to protect from the Florida sun. Don't forget your swimwear if you plan on taking a dip. If you're planning to fish, check with the rental company to see if you need to bring your own gear. Always remember to pack any necessary personal items, such as medications, and of course, a camera to capture the picturesque journey.

Embarking on a yachting adventure in Jacksonville opens up a world of captivating experiences and exploration. As you find your bearings and set sail, these responses to frequently asked questions should provide a reliable chart to guide your course. However, as with any grand voyage, the magic lies in the discoveries you make along the way. The joy of yachting is not only in reaching your destination but in embracing the journey itself. Happy sailing!
