Where the pontoon meets the party!

Mini Pontoon Rentals

Small boats. Big vibes. Our self-guided mini pontoons put you in the captain’s seat for a safe, easy cruise to the Haulover Sandbar. Want the VIP treatment? We also offer private group tours during the week to destinations like Peanut Island, the Islamorada Sandbar, and island hopping in the Florida Keys. Reserve your boat today before they’re all gone—availability at the sandbar fills up fast!

About Us

“From local sandbars to custom tours, we make getting on the water easy.”

At Pirate Flag Pontoons, we believe the best days in Miami happen on the water — and you don’t need a captain’s license (or a mega yacht) to enjoy them.

We offer self-guided, 2-person mini pontoon rentals that give you the freedom to cruise to the famous Haulover Sandbar on your own terms. Our boats are easy to operate, safe, and designed for chill vibes. Whether you’re looking for a spontaneous weekend escape or just want to drop anchor and unwind, we make it simple, fun, and affordable.

We’re a small local business — not a big marina. That means every rental is personal, every boat is cared for, and every guest matters.

Pirate Flag Pontoons is owned and operated by a South Florida native who’s spent a lifetime exploring the waters from West Palm Beach down to Key West. When you rent with us, you’re tapping into years of local know-how and the kind of experience that only comes from growing up on these shores.

You don’t need experience to feel like a captain — just sunscreen, a playlist, and a sense of adventure.

Where the pontoon meets the party — we’ll see you at the sandbar. 🏴‍☠️
