Felipe
Founder & Director of Experiences

I built Miami Tours and Water Adventures after years in hospitality across the cruise line and maritime industry. Every charter we run is 100% private — your group, your date, your USCG-licensed captain. Andre, Franck, Sasha, Nico, and Erik command the fleet to the standards I set: professional, private, and unhurried.

The MTWA Standard

Why Every Charter Starts with a Credentialed Captain

Miami Tours and Water Adventures was built on one principle: guests who pay for privacy deserve the real thing. Every vessel in the fleet departs under a USCG Licensed Master Captain — Andre, Franck, Sasha, Nico, or Erik on your booking day. No walk-ups. No shared decks. No broker middlemen. Your confirmation email contains marina details — not a public sales page.

Standards & Operations

What Felipe Built Into Every Departure

Safety culture and hospitality either run through every decision or they do not exist. Felipe founded MTWA so guests never share a deck with strangers and never wonder who is driving.

  • USCG Licensed Master Captains

    Captain Andre, Captain Franck, Captain Sasha, Captain Nico, and Captain Erik hold the federal credential for commercial passenger operations in US waters. Verify any captain through the National Maritime Center.

  • Hospitality & Maritime Background

    Felipe spent years in hospitality across the cruise line and maritime industry. That guest-first standard shapes how the MTWA fleet operates — professional, private, and unhurried.

  • FWC & Commercial Livery Compliance

    Operations follow Florida FWC boating safety and commercial livery requirements on every departure — not optional add-ons for inspection days.

  • Private-Only Operations

    Marina meet-up details go out after you book — not on a public sales page. That keeps your departure day calm and your group the only group aboard.

Why MTWA Exists

I Saw Groups Paying for Privacy and Getting Crowded Docks

I spent years in hospitality across the cruise line and maritime industry before Miami. Here I saw groups paying for privacy and still arriving at crowded docks with shared experiences. That gap is why MTWA exists.

Biscayne Bay is not one water body. Government Cut opens to the Atlantic. Star Island and the Venetian Islands read differently at low throttle than at plane speed. A sandbar stop needs clear shallows and a captain who knows when wind will push you off anchor — which is why every departure runs under a credentialed captain, not a shared schedule.

Andre, Franck, and Sasha command the sport yachts because they know those routes cold. On the Azimut fleet, a hostess stages toys and drinks before you step on teak. You choose the next swim stop. Crew handles deployment.

Marina meet-up details go out after you book — not on a public sales page. That keeps your departure day calm. If you are comparing vessels, start with the charter that matches your group size and how you want to spend hours on the bay.
