A Concert Like No Other

Instead of fighting traffic, parking and crowds, enjoy the evening aboard your own private yacht charter on San Diego Bay. Depart from Harbor Island and cruise along the San Diego waterfront before making your way toward the Rady Shell area. Once safely positioned by your captain, relax aboard the yacht and enjoy the atmosphere of a live waterfront concert with incredible views of the downtown San Diego skyline.

The Rady Shell sits directly on San Diego Bay at Embarcadero Marina Park South, making it a spectacular waterfront setting for live music.

Plan Enough Time for Your Rady Shell Cruise

Important: Ample time should be scheduled into your charter to allow the yacht to cruise from Harbor Island to the Rady Shell area and secure an appropriate anchorage position.

On popular concert nights, yacht space near the Rady Shell can become limited as additional boats arrive to enjoy the performance from the bay.

For this reason, we highly recommend planning your charter so the yacht arrives in the Rady Shell area approximately ONE HOUR before the scheduled concert start time.

Arriving early gives your captain more time to find an appropriate location, get safely situated and allows your group to relax and enjoy the waterfront before the music begins.

Your Private Concert Experience

Bring your favorite food and drinks aboard, connect your music for the cruise, and enjoy San Diego Bay before settling in for the concert. Your private yacht gives your group its own space to socialize, dine and take in the lights of downtown San Diego from the water.

Rady Shell concerts commonly run around two hours, although performance times vary by event. When planning your charter, we recommend allowing time for the cruise to the Shell, approximately one hour of pre-concert arrival time, the full performance, and the return cruise to Harbor Island.

Popular Concert Dates Fill Quickly

Rady Shell concert nights can be especially popular for private yacht charters. We recommend reserving early and checking the concert's scheduled start time before selecting your charter duration.
