Why choose SD Charters for your San Diego Bay cruise
We believe your experience should be personal, peaceful, and perfectly paced. While public ferries and large sightseeing boats follow fixed routes and rigid schedules – often crowded and noisy – our charters offer a laid-back opportunity designed entirely around you.
Your cruise, your pace
No fixed routes, no stress. Spend more time where the view (or the vibe) is best for your group.
Locally owned and operated
We’re not a chain or a tour bus on water. Our captain knows the hidden gems and stories behind every dock and bend.
Private comfort
Our yacht accommodates up to 6 guests in total privacy, with cozy seating, 2 restrooms, and shaded areas on board.
Picture-perfect views
Get the best photo ops without jostling for space – including close looks at the Coronado Bridge, USS Midway, and Point Loma.
Family and pet friendly
Safe, calm waters and a welcoming crew make this a great outing for all ages (and furry friends, too).
Flexible booking
Choose your ideal time slot, duration, and route. We adapt the tour to your interests, not the other way around.
