For a romantic private yacht charter in Cozumel for two, a small sport yacht like Island Girl (27ft, up to 7 guests) starts at $15,500 MXN (about $940 USD) for a 4-hour private trip — captain, crew, fuel, snorkel gear and drinks all included. That gives you a fully private boat and crew for a proposal, anniversary or honeymoon day without sharing space with strangers.
Because every Altamar charter is private, the boat, the route and the pace of the day are yours. You choose whether to anchor at a quiet reef, drift over the turquoise shallows, or simply cruise the coastline at sunset with your favorite drinks in hand.
Which yacht is best for a couples day in Cozumel?
For just the two of you, a smaller sport yacht keeps things intimate and affordable. If you want to bring a few close friends or family to witness a proposal, a mid-size boat gives you deck space without feeling crowded.

How do I plan a surprise proposal on the yacht?
A private charter is one of the easiest places to pull off a surprise. The crew can help time the moment — for example, right as you anchor at a calm turquoise cove or as the light turns golden late in the day.
A few simple ways to make the moment special on board:
- Ask the crew to slow down and anchor at a scenic spot for the big question
- Bring a bottle of something special — your own drinks are welcome alongside what's included
- Plan the proposal for the back half of a 4-hour trip so you can relax and celebrate afterward
- Coordinate with the crew ahead of time so photos and timing line up
- Keep the group small if you want an intimate moment before telling everyone
What can couples do during the charter?
Cozumel's calm, clear water makes it perfect for slow, romantic days. Snorkel gear is always included, so you can jump in together over the reef and then dry off on the deck.
Popular ways couples spend the day:
- Snorkeling side by side over Cozumel's famous reefs
- Anchoring in shallow turquoise water for swimming and photos
- Cruising the coastline with drinks and music
- A relaxed sunset stretch to close out an anniversary
- Bringing a picnic or ordering food to enjoy on board
How much does a romantic Cozumel charter cost?
The most budget-friendly private option for two is Island Girl at $15,500 MXN (about $940 USD) for 4 hours, with captain, crew, fuel, snorkel gear and drinks all included — so there are no surprise add-ons for the basics.
If you want more space or a luxury feel, mid-size and larger boats run higher. Explore sport yachts for intimate options, or a catamaran like Candela (40ft Lagoon, up to 25 guests, from $44,850 MXN) if you're combining the romance with a bigger celebration.
