The Palm Beach International Boat Show (PBIBS) is making waves once again as it returns to West Palm Beach’s waterfront from March 19-23, 2025. This year, the event is bigger than ever, extending to five full days to accommodate the increasing demand from marine enthusiasts, industry professionals, and luxury lifestyle seekers.

With over $1.2 billion worth of yachts and accessories on display, PBIBS offers a spectacular showcase of vessels ranging from 8-foot inflatables to nearly 300-foot superyachts. The highly anticipated Superyacht Show at Palm Harbor, now newly expanded, is a must-visit for those looking to explore the pinnacle of luxury boating.

A Look at the Superyachts on Display

Among the most impressive vessels on display, visitors can step aboard some of the world’s most magnificent superyachts, including:

  • Bold – At 279 feet, it’s the largest yacht at the show, complete with a helipad and designed for global adventures.
  • Amaryllis – A 257-foot luxury vessel featuring a fitness center, spa, and six elegant staterooms.
  • Synthesis – An award-nominated 242-foot yacht with a private owner’s deck and hot tub.
  • Eternity – A stunning 213-foot superyacht offering premium comfort and design.
More Than Just a Boat Show

Beyond the yachts, PBIBS offers a range of experiences, including the VIP Windward Club, educational seminars, and the exciting AquaZone, featuring thrilling watersports demonstrations.
