San Diego Bay is one of the most scenic harbors in the country. A private yacht charter puts you at the center of it — with your group, your music, and your own schedule.
The Vessel: Paradise Party Yacht
The Paradise Party Yacht is a 60-foot vessel with two full decks. The open upper deck offers panoramic 360-degree views of the bay. The covered lower salon provides shade, seating, and climate comfort with a fully enclosed and heated interior.
The vessel holds up to 15 persons — one of the few on San Diego Bay that exceeds the standard 13-person harbor limit. Professional Radar and Sonar navigation systems are standard equipment. The USCG licensed Captain and crew member are included on every charter.
The Route: San Diego Bay's Landmark Circuit
Every charter follows the full landmark circuit of San Diego Bay. Departing from Safe Harbor Sunroad Resort Marina on Harbor Island, the yacht navigates south past the USS Midway, the downtown Embarcadero, the Rady Shell at Jacobs Park, and the Seaport Village area.
The Coronado Bridge comes into full view as the vessel approaches the southern bay. The Hotel Del Coronado is visible on the Coronado shoreline. The naval fleet anchorage — active Navy destroyers and cruisers — is part of the southern route. The return leg passes the Star of India tall ship before docking back at Harbor Island.
Amenities Included on Every Charter
The Paradise Party Yacht is fully BYOB. Commercial refrigeration holds a constant 34°F. Ice, cups, plates, napkins, utensils, bottled water, and a blender are included. The 3000-watt Disco grade sound system connects via Bluetooth. Karaoke gear is available. A private restroom is maintained throughout the charter.
The upper deck has open-air seating and standing room. The lower salon has comfortable seating, the galley, and the sound system controls. Guests move freely between both decks throughout the charter.
Charter Lengths and Options
Two-hour charters cover the full landmark circuit of San Diego Bay. Three-hour charters add the anchor and swim stop at Glorietta Bay — a sheltered cove adjacent to the Hotel Del Coronado where the lily pad float is deployed and guests swim directly from the vessel.
Charters are available seven days a week, year-round. Morning, afternoon, and sunset departure times are available subject to calendar availability.
Who Books a San Diego Yacht Charter
The most common occasions: birthday celebrations, bachelorette and bachelor parties, anniversary dinners on the water, proposals, corporate client entertainment, family reunions, and graduation parties. The private environment works for all of them.
Groups range from 6 to 15 persons. The vessel is well-suited for groups that want a private, high-quality experience without the complexity of a large event venue.
