South Beach's Favorite Party Boat Experience
"There were 9 of us that booked Southbeach Party Boats and we had such a blast! Captain Ryan was a ton of fun! Bobby did a nice job at service recovery!! They take you around the bay and then dock at a nearby island where you can swim, drink, dance , tan and eat food! They grilled some burgers and hot dogs that were delicious!! They provide wine and beer! The plus was that you can bring your own booze on Board!! I am definitely coming back to this booze cruise when I return to South Beach!!"
"South Beach Party Boats is the way to go if you are looking for a SUPER fun experience. They played the music we wanted, had all the beer, wine and water we could ask for, they even had a beer opener! These people were prepared and you could tell they just want everyone to be happy and have a good time. Also, it was a GORGEOUS boat ride and loved seeing different parts of Miami. Even the party bus was awesome and picked us up right on time! Seriously I dont have any complaints."
"We were the first boat trip of the day and the crew was late and needed a half hour to stock the boat, that was the only bummer of the experience, loosing a half hour. The boat was so much fun and provided enough food and booze to satisfy and played awesome music! They had rafts and paddle boards to add to it. Would definitely recommend and would do it again!"
"Amazing! It was more than I ever expected It to be. I went and celebrated my birthday with a couple of friends and its absolutely one for the books. The ride was great, they allowed us to connect our own aux, and although we had other people on the boat with us we all got together and had an amazing time. Thank You South Beach Party Boats for a birthday my friends and I will never forget. I'll be sure to recommend you all to anyone and everyone I know. Thanks Again!!"

- buy local and sustainable food products

Notable Landmarks and Sites We’ll See
As you soak in the sun, we’ll sail past some of San Diego’s most spectacular coastal sites introducing (or reacquainting) you with the:
USS Midway Aircraft Carrier– The USS Midway was commissioned one week after the end of World War II, was the largest ship in the world until 1955, and was the longest-serving aircraft carrier in the 20th century. The Midway was so large it could carry 120 planes on its armored flight deck and was the first aircraft carrier unable to cruise the Panama Canal due to its sheer size. While you are visiting San Diego, be sure to check out the USS Midway Museum to learn more about this iconic ship. Star of India – Star of India is the world’s oldest active sailing ship. She is an iron ship with a long and storied past that includes collisions, mutiny and cyclones. She worked as a cargo ship and then spent half a century bringing emigrants to New Zealand. You can tour the Star of India at the Maritime Museum of San Diego. North Island Military Base – Dubbed the official birthplace of aviation, the North Island Military Base is an active military base home to two aircraft carriers and 23 fixed and rotary wing squadrons. Cabrillo National Museum – The Cabrillo National Monument and museum mark the location where the first European set foot on the western US. There is a lot to take in at Cabrillo park including the Old Point Loma Lighthouse and the rocky intertidal zone. Hotel del Coronado – The Hotel Del is a historic beachfront luxury hotel situated in the city of Coronado, just over the bridge from downtown San Diego. It opened in 1888 as the largest resort hotel in the world and today is the second-largest wooden structure in the US. If you are visiting San Diego, it is definitely worth spending a couple of hours at The Del — grab lunch or stroll the pristine beach.

The Ultimate Guide to Choosing Your Ideal Yacht Charter Service
A re you dreaming of gliding through the crystal-clear waters under the endless blue sky? Do you crave the freedom of charting your course across the open sea, with the only sound being the gentle slap of waves against your yacht's hull? If your soul yearns for the ultimate adventure on the waters, then a yacht charter service could be your beacon in the night.
It's not just the rich and famous who charter yachts anymore. The popularity of yacht rental Dubai has soared as more people seek to escape to the seas for a vacation that's a cut above the rest. But with the plethora of options available, choosing the right yacht charter service can seem as daunting as navigating the high seas in a storm. Fear not, as this ultimate guide will steer you towards selecting the yacht charter service that perfectly suits your needs and dreams.
Understanding Yacht Charter Services
Before you set sail, it's important to understand what yacht charter services are and the unique experiences they offer. A yacht charter is essentially renting a yacht for a period, along with its crew if you opt for a crewed charter, to explore your chosen waters.
From the Caribbean to the Mediterranean, and the Pacific to the Indian Ocean, yacht charters can take you virtually anywhere there's water. You can choose to relax and enjoy the pampering of a luxury yacht, or you might prefer the challenge of captaining your own course on a smaller, bareboat charter.
Types of Yacht Charters
Yacht charters come in various flavors, each tailored to different tastes and levels of experience.
Bareboat Charters
The purest form of sailing freedom, bareboat charters, are for seasoned sailors who want to be the masters of their destiny. You'll be responsible for the yacht's navigation, steering, and safety, and must possess sufficient experience and qualifications.
Crewed Charters
If you fancy a hands-free vacation where all you need to do is relax, eat, and explore, a crewed charter is for you. You can choose the level of service with a crewed charter, from a skippered yacht where the captain takes the helm, to a fully crewed luxury liner with chefs and waitstaff to cater to your every whim.
Luxury Charters
For the ultimate indulgence, luxury charters offer opulent accommodations, fine dining, and a service level that rivals the best hotels. These charters often include amenities like on-board spas, private beaches, and a fleet of water toys to play with. A dinner cruise Dubai offers an unforgettable evening of gourmet dining, unparalleled views of the illuminated skyline, and a unique perspective of the city's architectural marvels from the tranquil waters.
Factors to Consider When Booking
When you're ready to book a yacht charter, it's vital to consider the following factors to ensure you select the right service for your needs.
Your budget will largely dictate the type of yacht charter available to you. Remember to consider all costs, including the charter fee, fuel, mooring fees, food, and any extra activities or services you might want to include.
Destination
Where you want to sail is a significant decision. It could be a serene bay in the Mediterranean, a bustling port in the Caribbean, or a remote island in the South Pacific. Consider the season, too—some regions are best visited during specific months to enjoy the most favorable weather.
Yacht Size and Type
Consider the number of people in your party and the type of experience you're after. Do you want a sailing yacht or a powerboat? How many cabins will you need? A spacious catamaran might be perfect for larger groups, while a sleek monohull might be more fitting for a romantic escape.
Crew Expertise
The expertise and personality of the crew can make or break your charter experience. Research the charter company you're considering to ensure they employ skilled and congenial staff.
Top Destinations for Yacht Charters
The world is your oyster when it comes to yacht charters, and here are some of the top destinations that entice sea lovers from all corners of the globe.
The Exotic Whitsundays

The Warm Caribbean Seas
The Caribbean has long been a favorite for yacht charters, with its myriad islands offering something for everyone, from the festive lifestyle of Saint Tropez to the tranquility of the British Virgin Islands.
The Rich Culture of the Mediterranean
Sailing the Mediterranean promises a blend of history, culture, and luxury. You can hop between the ancient ports of Greece, the chic French Riviera, and the rugged coastline of Croatia.
Preparing for Your Yacht Charter Adventure
With your yacht charter booked and your destination selected, the final step is preparation. Here are some tips to ensure you're ready for the adventure of a lifetime.
Plan Your Itinerary
While spontaneity has its charms, having a rough itinerary will optimize your time and ensure you don't miss out on any must-see spots or events in your chosen destination.
Pack Wisely
Space is precious on a yacht, so pack light, and pack right. Comfortable, practical clothing and footwear are a must, along with essentials like sunscreen, hats, and gear for water activities.
Know the Rules of the Sea
Familiarize yourself and your party with the sailing regulations of your destination. This will ensure a safe and legal voyage and help prevent any unexpected surprises.
By meticulously going through the selection process and diligently preparing for your voyage, you can turn your yacht charter into the adventure of a lifetime. Whether you're seeking the solitude of the open sea, the serenity of a remote island, or the sophistication of a coastal city, the right yacht charter is waiting to whisk you away to your watery dreams. Bon voyage!

We found Ocean Therapy Charters almost by accident and are glad we did! They went out of their way to help make our trip happen. The boat was in excellent condition and they only take up to six divers; we were fortunate as we were the only two on this outing. It had been 7 years since I last dove so I was a bit nervous at the beginning. Dive master Mike was attentive and my insecurities quickly vanished, he was an excellent underwater guide, knowing where to look for the elusive sea life. Both the pilot and assistant were friendly attentive making for an excellent overall experience. You will not be disappointed.
Amazing dive locations, clean and safe boat, and accommodating crew! My son and I did a 2 tank dive, 1 deep wreck, and one medium depth. Roger was our dive master and stand-up comic. I have never laughed so much underwater in my life. The high quality DPV scooters just pushed the dive over the top!

Three Thai missing boats loaded with smuggled diesel found off Malaysian coast
Monday, 17 Jun 2024

Thailand looks to maritime tourism connectivity with vietnam, cambodia, thailand passes landmark bill approving same-sex marriage.
BANGKOK: The three boats that disappeared from a marine police station last week with some 330,000 litres of diesel were found in Malaysian waters on Sunday (June 16) and are being towed back.
Pol Maj-General Jaroonkiart Pankaew (pic), deputy commissioner of the Central Investigation Bureau (CIB), said the three boats are expected to reach Songkhla pier on Monday.
Jaroonkiart was speaking to reporters just before boarding a police plane to Songkhla, where he will interrogate the crew of the three boats himself.
The three fishing boats were among five seized by the coast guard in the Gulf of Thailand on March 17 with 28 crew members. Most of the crew are of Thai nationality.
Three of the five boats were found to be loaded with some 330,000 litres of diesel smuggled from a neighbouring country to sell cheaply in Thailand. The other two boats were empty.
The five boats were towed to the Sattahip marine police’s pier in Chonburi. On the evening of June 11, officers guarding the boats allowed them to be moved away from the pier due to strong winds.
The officers believed the heavy winds and big waves would cause the boats to smash into the pier and get damaged.
However, no officers were dispatched to watch the boats and the three loaded with diesel disappeared late that night.
Channel 8 reported earlier that certain members of the coast guard had allegedly siphoned some diesel from the boats to sell and had let go of the boats to conceal their crimes.
On Monday, Pol Maj-General Preutthipong Nutchanart, commander of the marine police division under CIB, said it was found that some of the oil on the three boats was missing. He did not elaborate.
He also said eight of the 16 crew members on the three boats had also disappeared.
Preutthipong added that he believes some members of the Sattahip coast guard definitely had a hand in letting the boats go. He said Jaroonkiart has given him seven days to investigate the case and determine who was involved.
Meanwhile, Pol Colonel Chatchawal Chuchaicharoen, commander of Crime Suppression Sub-division 2, said he had learned from lawyers that only 11 of the 28 crew members arrested on March 17 were still available to face charges after being released on bail. The 11 suspects are scheduled to report for interrogation later on Monday. - The Nation/ANN

ABOARD THE USS LABOON IN THE RED SEA (AP) — Yemen’s Houthi rebels launched a boat-borne bomb attack against a commercial ship in the Red Sea on Wednesday, authorities said, the latest escalation despite a U.S.-led campaign trying to protect the vital waterway.
The use of a boat loaded with explosives raised the specter of 2000’s USS Cole attack, a suicide assault by al-Qaida on the warship when it was at port in Aden, killing 17 on board. Associated Press journalists saw the Cole in the Red Sea on Wednesday, now taking part in the U.S. campaign while visiting one of her sister ships, the USS Laboon.
Yemen’s military spokesman Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree claimed responsibility for the attack, identifying the vessel targeted as the Liberian-flagged, Greek-owned bulk carrier Tutor. He described the attack as using a “drone boat,” as well as drones and ballistic missiles.
In a warning to shippers, the British military’s United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center described the vessel as being hit in its stern by a small white craft southwest of the Houthi-controlled port city of Hodeida.
The captain “reports the vessel is taking on water, and not under command of the crew,” the UKMTO said. He also “reports the vessel was hit for a second time by an unknown airborne projectile.”
The U.S. military’s Central Command also acknowledged the attack, saying the Tutor “most recently docked in Russia.”
“The impact of the (drone boat) caused severe flooding and damage to the engine room,” it added.
The U.S. military separately destroyed three anti-ship cruise missile launchers in Houthi-held Yemen, as well as one rebel drone over the Red Sea. The Houthis launched two anti-ship ballistic missiles over the Red Sea, but they caused no damage, Central Command said.
The Houthis, who seized Yemen’s capital nearly a decade ago and have been fighting a Saudi-led coalition since shortly after, have been targeting shipping throughout the Red Sea corridor over the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip.
They say the attacks are aimed at stopping the war and supporting the Palestinians, though the attacks often target vessels that have nothing to do with the conflict .
The war in Gaza has killed more than 36,000 Palestinians there, while hundreds of others have been killed in Israeli operations in the West Bank. It began after Hamas-led militants attacked Israel on Oct. 7, killing about 1,200 people and taking around 250 hostage.
The Houthis have launched more than 50 attacks on shipping, killed three sailors, seized one vessel and sunk another since November, according to the U.S. Maritime Administration. A U.S.-led airstrike campaign has targeted the Houthis since January, with a series of strikes May 30 killing at least 16 people and wounding 42 others, the rebels say.
Associated Press journalists on an embark with the U.S. Navy were interviewing Cmdr. Eric Blomberg, the commanding officer of the Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer Laboon, when the alert came in on the attack. Blomberg took multiple calls from sailors on board the vessel, giving updates on the apparent attack.
The Laboon is one of the destroyers accompanying the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower aircraft carrier and both has shot down Houthi fire and escorted vessels through the region. Though Blomberg and others stressed they were still investigating the attack, he said it appeared the vessel targeted had nothing to do with the Israel-Hamas war.
The Houthis “hit ships that are completely not associated or tied to the U.S. or Israel at all,” Blomberg said.
“These are just innocent merchant sailors carrying goods through the Red Sea, trying to get it through the least-expensive route, and they’re paying for it,” he said.

Middle East crisis — explained
The conflict between Israel and Palestinians — and other groups in the Middle East — goes back decades. These stories provide context for current developments and the history that led up to them.
‘All eyes on Rafah’ is the Internet's most viral AI image. Two artists are claiming credit
Bobby Allyn
The image on the right was generated by Zila Abka in February. She says she created it with Microsoft’s Image Creator. On the left is the viral image that Amirul Shah said he created also using an AI image generator tool. Amirul Shah/AI generated image and Zila Abka/Microsoft Image Creator hide caption
Two Malaysians separated by 900 miles are both taking credit for a synthetic image of Gaza that became the most viral ever AI-generated photo, underscoring the complexities of authorship and ownership in an online landscape increasingly overrun with content created by artificial intelligence.
The story behind the “all eyes on Rafah” graphic, which has been shared about 50 million times on Instagram and other platforms, likely begins on the northern tip of the Southeast Asian island of Borneo.
There, back in February, Zila AbKa was at her home playing around with Microsoft’s AI tool Image Creator.
AbKa is a 39-year-old science teacher and an AI art hobbyist. She’s also a pro-Palestinian activist. She wanted to make a piece of political art that depicted those sheltering in camps in the Gazan city of Rafah.
Zila Abka is a school teacher in Malaysia. She is active in the Facebook group Prompters Malaya, a gathering place for mostly Malaysian AI artists to show their work. Zila Abka hide caption
After the phrase “all eyes on Rafah” started going viral, AbKa said she wrote a prompt for the AI tool to create an image that would have the phrase spelled out by white tents amid dense rows of other tent encampments. The words had become a rallying cry after a World Health Organization representative used them to draw attention to the situation in the region where hundreds of thousands of displaced people have fled.
When Microsoft’s Image Creator spit out a graphic, AbKa put two watermarks on it: One indicating it was generated by AI; another saying she was the creator.
She liked it. So she shared a post on Feb. 14 in her language — Malay — to the Facebook group Prompters Malaya , a gathering place of about 250,000 mostly Malaysians who share AI-generated art, sometimes about the war in Gaza.
“I wanted to spread and highlight the issue and hoped that everybody would do whatever they could to show solidarity with Gazans right now,” AbKa told NPR.
AbKa has not previously spoken out about making the image.
AbKa: 'I think this is mine,' but the watermarks are gone
From there, she basically forgot about it — until last week, when she saw a very similar image on Instagram, spreading rapidly following an Israeli strike in the city that killed dozens and prompted worldwide condemnation.
But the image was altered. Her watermarks were gone. And the image was expanded to include snow-capped mountains looming over the tents, an almost surrealist touch, an AI riff on Gaza’s Middle Eastern landscape.
Zila Abka generated this image in February. Zila Abka/Microsoft Image Creator hide caption
At first, she was offended that someone had laundered her image and removed her name from it. In addition, she was initially alarmed that the “AI generated” disclaimer was missing just as tens of millions of people were re-sharing it across the internet.
She zoomed in to examine every letter and corner of the viral image. She concluded that it had to be hers.
“Everything about the structure of the words and the arrangement of the ‘tents,’ it’s all the same, except for the expanded part,” she said. “When I saw it, I thought, yeah, I think this is mine.”
But her annoyance over not getting credit soon dissipated.
“I don’t think any generated AI image is fully someone’s belonging,” AbKa said.
Indeed, the U.S. Copyright Office has repeatedly rejected copyright protection for AI-generated images since they lack human authorship, placing the AI images in a legal gray area.
It was, however, AbKa’s unique prompt that summoned the image. She said that should be worth something, though galvanizing support for Gaza was always her main impetus.
“If the aim is to spread awareness,” AbKa said about the version of the image that went viral, “then I think I should thank that person.”
The person behind the account 'Shahv4012'
Amirul Shah is a college student and photographer in Malaysia. The “all eyes on Rafah” image he created has been shared nearly 50 million times on Instagram. Amirul Shah hide caption
That person is Amirul Shah, known as Shahv4012 on Instagram. He is also Malaysian.
The two do not know each other, nor have they ever communicated.
AbKa believes he took her image, edited it and created an Instagram “template,” which has since surged on social media, amassing nearly 50 million shares on Instagram and millions more on other social media platforms.
AbKa thinks Shah cropped her image right above her watermarks, then edited it with a tool that uses AI to expand and re-imagine the background of a photo. She believes this because she tried it herself on her own AI rendering and got results strikingly similar to the viral image.
Shah’s image has his own watermark on it with the tag of his Instagram account dedicated to his photography, @chaa.my_, giving the impression that the whole thing was his original undertaking.
Amirul Shah added his generated image to an Instagram template that was amplified by celebrities like Dua Lipa and Bella Hadid. Amirul Shah/AI generated image hide caption
When Shah was reached for an interview, he denied copying AbKa’s creation. Instead, he shared a different version of events.
Shah, a 21-year-old college student in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s capital, has not previously spoken out about his process.
A photography enthusiast, Shah says he was toying around with an AI image generator recently. He thinks he used Microsoft’s Image Creator, the same service AbKa used, but he claims he can’t remember.
When he added it to an Instagram "template," it ricocheted around the world, as influencers and celebrities like Dua Lipa and Bella Hadid amplified it to their millions of followers.
The image looks uncannily like AbKa’s, but he claims he hadn't even seen AbKa's before making his own.
Still, the size of the words, placement of each letter and AI-generated clusters of tents next to the phrase are identical. But Shah’s version is portrayed from an higher aerial view, with deeper and longer shadows cast by snowy mountains.
He said he was giving all sorts of Gaza-related AI images a try as a form of activism, not angling for virality.
“My intention was not for popularity,” Shah told NPR. “I wanted to uphold justice for all Palestinians who are there.”
Shah says AI images spread faster
Technologists say that generating the same exact AI image twice is exceedingly unlikely.
In dozens of attempts to recreate the image using Microsoft’s Image Creator, NPR was not able to prompt the tool to create a visual that came close to the viral one. Most of the time, the tool struggled to correctly spell “All eyes on Rafah,” a limitation of many AI image generators, which tend to depict words misspelled or warped in some way.
These are the results produced for NPR by Microsoft’s Image Creator after given a prompt to produce a realistic-looking aerial photo of Rafah, with the phrase “all eyes on Rafah” superimposed among the tents. NPR/Microsoft Image Creator hide caption
Shah, who regularly shares posts on social media highlighting the plight of Palestinians, said he has noticed that real photos and videos of the war tend to have limited reach on Instagram.
“The picture from AI can spread faster in a short time,” he said. Shah says another problem is that he has had graphic images of war removed by Instagram for violating the platform’s policies. He said he’s aware that repeat violations can mean that “users can get blocked,” he said.
Felix Simon, a research fellow at the University of Oxford who studies AI’s impact on public discourse, said the image being created by artificial intelligence fueled its virality far less than other factors.
“The simplicity of the slogan, the symbolism at work, the timing and political context, and the fact that it was shared by celebrities,” said Simon, adding that “the lack of graphic content makes it less likely to get taken down, which helps, too.”
It is a concern that has been echoed by other activists who have claimed graphic imagery that shows the atrocities of the war in Gaza can be removed from platforms, or suppressed by social media algorithms.
Some commentators criticized the meme for portraying a sanitized version of war that renders human horrors on the ground in Gaza into an easily-shareable AI image.
Both AbKa and Shah reject that idea, saying AI images can be a useful way to grab peoples' attention and make them engage in some way with the war.
Yet there is no agreement among them about who created the viral image that has spurred discussion around the world about the authenticity of online activism and renewed attention on an internet increasingly rife with realistic-looking AI depictions.
When pressed in direct messages on Instagram for a response to AbKa’s contention that her image was copied, Shah blocked an NPR reporter.
NPR researcher Susie Cummings contributed to this report.
