Miami Spice & Spa Months
July · August · September 2026 The city’s most indulgent season is here — and the most luxurious wayto experience it is from the water.
Miami’s Most Indulgent Season — And the Best Way to Live It
Every summer, Miami does something remarkable: it slows down just enough to savour itself. From July through September, the city launches two of its most celebrated annual programs — Miami Spa Months (July–August) and Miami Spice Restaurant Months (August–September) — transforming South Florida into an extended playground of world-class dining and curated wellness. More than 30 of the city’s finest spas open their doors at exclusive seasonal rates. Hundreds of Miami’s top restaurants offer three-course prix-fixe menus that make Michelin-recognized kitchens genuinely accessible. The summer heat becomes an invitation, not an obstacle. And the smartest way to experience all of it? Starting and ending each day on the water with Wonder Yachting.When Everything Happens
Both programs overlap in August — the sweet spot of Miami’s luxury summer calendar.
Why a Yacht Charter Makes the Whole Season Better
Miami in summer is warm, vibrant, and unhurried. The Spa and Spice programs are designed for people who know how to enjoy themselves — and a private yacht charter is the ultimate expression of that philosophy.
Spend the golden hour cruising Biscayne Bay before your Miami Spice dinner reservation. Arrive at the restaurant relaxed, golden, and ready — no traffic, no waiting.
Many of our charters can be paired with on-deck wellness experiences — massage therapists, cold-press juice menus, and curated relaxation packages on the open water.
Summer is Miami’s local season. The water is warm, the bay is open, and the city feels genuinely yours. It’s the version of Miami the locals know — and the tourists miss.
South Florida summer light is extraordinary. A yacht on Biscayne Bay during magic hour is one of the most compelling photo backgrounds in the world. Your feed will agree.

By the Numbers
Miami Spice 2026 — The City’s Greatest Culinary Event
Miami Spice is the most anticipated dining event in South Florida. Every August and September, the city’s top restaurants — including Michelin-recognized kitchens and James Beard nominees — offer three-course prix-fixe menus that let you experience the very best of Miami’s food scene at a fraction of the usual price.
Think private dining rooms at waterfront restaurants. Bold Latin fusion in Brickell. Japanese omakase in the Design District. Wood-fired creativity in Wynwood. The program covers every cuisine, every neighbourhood, and every style of dining that makes Miami’s food scene one of the most exciting in North America.
Creative wood-fired Asian cuisine in one of Miami’s most dynamic neighbourhoods. A perennial Spice favourite for bold flavours and refined technique.
Vibrant Latin-inspired flavours with a lively atmosphere that mirrors Miami’s energy. Perfect before or after a sunset cruise on the bay.
A refined Japanese dining experience at one of Miami Beach’s most iconic luxury hotels. Elegance in every detail — from the menu to the setting.
Globally-influenced seafood, sushi, and prime cuts in a rooftop setting with views of South Beach. The kind of dinner that begins on the water and ends on the water.
Three Ways to Combine a Yacht Charter with the Season
The beauty of a Wonder Yachting charter during Spice and Spa Months is the flexibility. You design the day — we make it happen.
Morning spa treatment at one of Miami’s top Spa Months venues, then an afternoon yacht charter timed perfectly to catch golden hour over Biscayne Bay. The most restorative day in the city.
Start the evening with a two-hour sunset cruise, champagne in hand, skyline glowing. Then dock and walk directly to your Miami Spice reservation — the only way to arrive at dinner.
Full-day charter with curated on-deck catering: gourmet mezze, fresh ceviche, tropical cocktails. A private floating lunch that rivals anything on the Spice programme — with infinitely better views.
Why Summer is an Underrated Time for a Miami Yacht Charter
Summer is when Miami belongs to those who know it best. Here’s why the season is quietly one of the best times to be on the water:
- 01 Warm, clear water: Biscayne Bay reaches its most inviting temperatures in July and August — perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and anchoring in calm conditions
- 02 Fewer crowds on the water: The peak tourist season has passed. The bay is less congested, the marinas are quieter, and your experience feels genuinely exclusive
- 03 Extraordinary light: South Florida’s summer sun creates warm, golden hours that last well into the evening — a photographer’s and content creator’s dream
- 04 Extend to the Keys or Bahamas: Summer weather is ideal for a multi-day charter south toward the Florida Keys or across to the Bahamas — the perfect complement to a Spice and Spa week
- 05 The city at its most authentic: When the tourists leave, the locals come alive. Restaurants are more attentive, service is more personal, and Miami feels genuinely like yours
