Private Yacht Charter NYC Aboard The Atlantis
An event aboard The Atlantis is one of the most refined private yacht charter experiences in New York City.
Operated by New York Cruises, the Atlantis is a state-of-the-art luxury yacht designed specifically for upscale corporate events, weddings, galas, mitzvahs, milestone birthdays, and private celebrations.
Cruising against the iconic Manhattan skyline, the Atlantis delivers a five-star dining experience paired with panoramic harbor views, impeccable service, and a layout engineered for events between 75 and 200 guests — our ideal event range.
Yacht Capacity & Event Experience
One of the most common questions we receive is:
How many guests fit aboard The Atlantis?
The answer depends on layout and event style.
Ideal Guest Range:
-
75–160 guests for seated dinner, buffet, or stations with dancing
-
Up to 180 guests for comfortable buffet or stations service
-
Up to 200 guests for hybrid dining formats such as cocktail style, formal buffet with courses or a luxury buffet
-
Up to 300 guests for cocktail & station-style receptions
While the Coast Guard maximum is higher, we design events around comfort, flow, and atmosphere — not crowding.
For most NYC yacht weddings and corporate events, 150 guests is the sweet spot.

Manhattan skyline
