Carpe Vita Charters operates from West Palm Beach, Florida, offering private charters aboard the Carpe Vita, a luxurious 42-foot catamaran. The company provides a curated selection of water-based experiences, including day ocean cruises, Intracoastal Waterway trips, sunset dinner cruises, overnight charters, and a Star Gazing Sleep Over that features commentary from a local astronomer. Each cruise includes provisions appropriate to the itinerary such as snacks, beverages, and gourmet dining on selected departures.
Clients board at West Palm Beach for departures that showcase coastal views, waterfront homes, and open-ocean scenery. The vessel is configured for comfort and relaxation, with space for lounging, dining, and enjoying coastal breezes. Crews operate the Carpe Vita to prioritize safety and a relaxed guest experience; licensed captain and standard safety equipment are provided for all charters.
Booking options accommodate private groups for celebrations, romantic outings, family excursions, and small corporate events. The Star Gazing Sleep Over blends daytime cruising with an overnight stay under the night sky, while the Sunset Dinner Cruise pairs gourmet seafood and coastal vistas. The Intracoastal Cruise focuses on calm waterways and waterfront sights; the 4 to 6 hour Ocean Cruise offers extended time on open water. Overnight charters allow multi-hour evening and sleeping arrangements aboard the vessel.
Carpe Vita Charters serves both local residents and visitors to the Palm Beach area, creating tailored marine experiences from a reliable, well-equipped catamaran. Reservations are available through the company for private charters and scheduled departures. Guests receive clear booking details and pre-departure instructions directly.
