About this Experience

What you'll do:

Step aboard a 49ft Sport Yacht in San Diego's Mission Bay and take over the entire vessel for your group, no shared decks, no strangers, just your crew and open water.

  • Take the helm or hand it off — Charter bareboat if someone in your group holds a valid USCG license, or add a licensed captain so everyone can fully relax and enjoy the ride.

  • Cruise Mission Bay and beyond — Explore the calm waters of the bay, head toward open ocean, or anchor in a sun-drenched cove while your group soaks up the afternoon.

  • Set the vibe on your terms — Connect your playlist to the onboard sound system, pop bottles on the deck, and arrange the space exactly how you want it for your group.

  • Elevate with a sushi spread — Add a freshly prepared sushi platter for up to 10 guests, served mid-cruise for a move that turns a good party into a great one.

  • Graze your way through a charcuterie board — Upgrade with an artisan arrangement of meats, cheeses, and crackers that lands on deck ready to serve.

From the moment you board to the moment you dock, this is a fully private boat party on one of San Diego's most iconic stretches of water, no itinerary to follow and no timeline but yours.

Why we love it for your party:

  • Full vessel privacy — Your group of up to 12 has the entire 49ft yacht to yourselves, so the energy, pace, and playlist are entirely in your hands.

  • Captain add-on available — A licensed captain can be booked at $125/hr, so no one in your group has to skipper; everyone gets to be a guest.

  • Flexible charter windows — Choose from 3 to 8-hour options so your day on the water fits your schedule, whether it's a quick sunset cruise or a full afternoon out.

  • Sushi cruise upgrade — Freshly prepared sushi for up to 10 guests, served onboard, with the kind of detail that makes people talk about your party afterward.

  • Charcuterie platter add-on — Artisan meats, cheeses, and crackers arranged and ready to go, no prep, no plates, no stress.
