California Luxury Yacht Charters

There’s nothing quite like exploring the west coast of America on a luxury yacht charter vacation.  The best time of year for a California yacht charter is from May to November, however Southern California’s season can be enjoyed all year round. During your voyage, your captain will probably dock in one of the two natural harbours, San Diego or San Francisco Bay.  There are plenty of man-made attractions, natural playgrounds and dramatic landscapes to enjoy on shore. It’s not surprising that California attracts millions of visitors from around the world every year. This sunshine state, located on the western coast of the US also has attractions galore.

Take a stunning coastal drive in a 4x4, try sailing on Lake Tahoe or watch a killer whale in action at SeaWorld in San Diego. The Redwood National Park as is also well worth a visit. The park has a forest of the world’s tallest trees, fantastic scenic routes as well as enjoyable activities like horse riding and mountain biking.

Yacht LUNA in SAN DIEGO CALIFORNIA

With its Hollywood heritage and characterful islands, cruising is ideal in Southern California. Newport Beach is the perfect playground for mega yachts. The waters at Newport Beach, just off the coast of Los Angeles are also popular with Hollywood legends. From John Wayne to Dean Martin, Marilyn Monroe and Angelina Jolie, many stars have enjoyed and still do enjoy the laid-back atmosphere here. Moor up at Newport Beach Yacht Club, one of the oldest in the US and take a stroll over the bridge to Balboa Island. The island has sweet houses with white picket fences, salt water taffy shops as well as clapboard ice-cream stores, it’s full of nostalgia.

During a trip to California as part of your yacht charter itinerary, why not add Disneyland to your must-visit list? Located in Anaheim, Disneyland’s world-famous amusement park is ideal for all the family.  There’s a movie theatre, thrilling roller coaster rides to dazzling shows, Disney characters to themed neighbourhoods like Tarzan’s Treehouse. Relax and recharge your batteries on Venice Beach, Los Angeles. It’s one of L.A.’s most popular beaches, a laid-back three-mile sandy beach, ideal for topping up your tan. Check out Ocean Front Walk with its street performers, people doing their own thing, biking, roller skating and even bodybuilding.

No trip to California would be complete without seeing the iconic Golden Gate Bridge near San Francisco. This famous red-orange bridge is one of the most photographed bridges in the world. After visiting the Golden Gate Bridge, why not ask your captain to either sail north to Long Beach, south to San Diego or even further south to Mexico?

OUR CLIENTS SAY IT BEST

We had a birthday party onboard the Regency tonight. The entire crew were amazing. Francini was our director and made sure everything was set up and all of our needs were met. She was very kind, made sure everyone had a good time. She made herself available to all of our guests through the entire cruise.
What can I say except that this company provides excellence in everything that they do! I rarely find such genuine care and comfort from the beginning of the process to the end – I felt very taken care of and valued. In addition, the party was better than I expected! The service was amazing, the food was outstanding – I am still getting comments even months after – my guests are still telling me what a great time they had and asking when are we going to do it again! All of my guests (and me too) loved cruising into the sunset with cocktails and passed hors d’oeuvres on the sky deck, dining at dusk with the great cafe lighting that Asdruval Party Rentals provided and then dancing the night away to awesome music by Brad at Rhythm City!
My cousins rented a Yacht for my Aunt’s 70th birthday party. We launched from Marina Del Ray and the boat did a loop around the marina for 5 hours. It goes by pretty fast especially since you’ll be enjoying dinner, entertainment, and when available, the open bar. The staff were amazing and the bartender kept up with all the orders with no hiccup. Years ago, my other cousin had a reception on another type of Yacht for their wedding reception. Maybe one day I’ll throw something on a Yacht and invite my closest friends. I think this is a better way to throw a special party than the usual land locked location.
I had my 50th birthday party on October 27th 2017. Erin was my party planner she made sure everything ran smoothly I had no worries. The decorations were beautiful I had a gatsby-themed party. I wish I could name everyone who helped on the yacht. I had 130 guess on the DANDEANA yacht all my guests were attended to no problems. The food was delicious the drinks were great the service was fabulous. This is my second yacht charter with this company and they never seem to fail me. Thank you everyone who helped for me to have a grand 50th birthday even the ones behind the scenes, I appreciate you all I’ll see you at my next event thank you everyone. Captain was great; thank you Jeffrey for greeting everyone. The casino on board was perfect, my band was great, my DJ was great. Thanks again I will never forget this day.
We held my Mom’s 70th birthday here on 1028 and we had an amazing time. The boat was gorgeous, very clean, modern and elegant. The staff was extremely attentive and helpful. Our planner, Erin, was very helpful. She was flexible and accommodated all of my needs, and gave great advice given her experience. I would absolutely recommend this boat for any of your parties.
Fantasea hosted my mother’s ash scattering at sea earlier today and I could not have been happier with the results. The food and service were excellent! Kudos to Jasmine, Erin, Capt Luis, Capt Carlos, Mariano, Julio, Wilson and Francini for their wonderful team work! I highly recommend Fantasea!

Popular Yacht Rental Ideas

Sunset cruises.

Sunset is a wonderful time to enjoy out on the water. The late afternoon is when a lot of the marine life in the harbor is most active! Seals, sea lions, and various species of birds are easy to spot. Enjoy drinks and hors d'ouevres, or even dinner aboard against a backdrop of the setting sun on the Pacific Ocean. To book a sunset cruise, simply choose how many hours you'd like to rent the yacht, then choose a time near to the sunset of that day. For example, in the winter, book a charter beginning between 4:00pm - 5:00pm. In the summer, the sun sets later, so book a charter beginning between 6:00pm - 7:00pm.

Birthdays and Celebrations

Celebrate your birthday on Calico! We encourage you to bring any decorations you like! Turn up the music and enjoy our crisp sound system integrated throughout the yacht. Make photos and memories against a backdrop of Marina del Rey harbor. Rent the yacht for longer to cruise to the Santa Monica Pier or Malibu. Great for engagements, graduations, or any other celebration. Bring your preferred food and/or drinks to fit the occasion and your style. At booking there is space to let us know about any special occasions! We can help you get things onboard in advance if you require.

Marriage Proposals

There is no better way to propose than on a yacht. Pop the question with champagne, roses and that perfect song. Option to have a hidden photographer onboard, waiting below to catch the perfect moment against a backdrop of the Pacific Ocean and Marina del Rey. After that "yes!", celebrate with complimentary champagne and a dozen red roses. At Calico Yacht Charter, we have ensured the success of dozens of romantic proposals! Your captain can pretend like it's a normal harbor cruise, so your partner is never the wiser. He will work directly with you to ensure that every detail is how you imagine it. After booking, give us a call when you have a secluded moment. Let us know what you envision, and we'll make it happen!
