Board the Galeon 55' with Naples Nantucket Yacht Group and trade shoreline crowds for a private sweep of Southwest Florida’s Gulf coast. Operating out of Naples City Dock in Naples, Florida, this 55-foot 2019 Galeon 550 Fly blends European styling with a beach-mode layout—fold-down terraces that open the cockpit into an expansive sun-soaked lounge—ideal for cruising to Marco Island, Keewaydin, and the region’s secret sandbars. The scene here is low, luminous coastline: long white-sand strands, mangrove islands, glassy seagrass flats and shallow turquoise shallows where rays and juvenile tarpon hunt. From the flybridge you’ll watch osprey quarter mangrove edges and dolphins thread channels; under anchorage you can step onto powder sand bars or glide on paddleboards.

Inside, luxe materials and panoramic windows give the salon an airy, modern feel, and the three cabins let small groups sleep onboard for multi-day escapes. The yacht’s performance—responsive hull, steady ride—and its twin engines make short hops between Naples and Marco Island easy, while captains from Naples Nantucket Yacht Group design itineraries that fold in waterfront restaurants, quiet coves and longer runs offshore. For families it’s a shallow-water playground with add-ons such as paddleboards, Seabobs and inflatable lounges. For celebrations, the fold-down bulwarks create an entertainment terrace that feels larger than the boat itself.

Practicalities arrive with equal polish: charters are available year round, with four-hour half days or eight-hour full days departing from Naples City Dock; pricing begins at published rates. Included are vessel use, light cruising fuel, water and ice—food, beverages and gratuity are not included. Each charter requires at least one adult age 21+ aboard. Weather dictates availability.

What makes this a stand-out is the combination of the Galeon’s ingenious beach mode and the local coastline’s variety. Naples’ offshore bars, barrier islands and mangrove-lined estuaries offer both calm anchorages for swimming and faster passages where the Gulf opens into broad horizon views. Naples Nantucket Yacht Group’s white-glove custom approach—tailored menus, toys, and a captain-led plan—turns a day on the water into both a relaxed retreat and an active coastal expedition. Whether you want to watch a sunset with champagne, anchor at a quiet sandbar for a picnic, or explore Marco Island’s inlets, a private charter on the Galeon 55' is one of the most direct ways to experience Southwest Florida’s shoreline on your terms.

Overnight and weekend charters shift the mood: staterooms include a roomy master and guest cabins, so mornings begin with coffee over wakes and evenings end under wide, star-filled skies far from light pollution.
