FAQ

1. Is it expensive to rent a yacht?

   Not at all! It’s actually quite affordable when you break it down.

   For example, if you book a yacht for $2,500 and split the cost among 13 people, it comes out to only $192 per person—a small price for a luxury experience on the water!

2. What payment methods do you accept?

   We accept payments through Zelle, credit cards, bank transfers, PayPal, Venmo, and cryptocurrency for secure and convenient transactions.

3. Can we play our own music on board?

   Yes, our yachts are equipped with modern sound systems compatible with various devices through Bluetooth. Feel free to bring your playlists to set the perfect ambiance for your voyage.

4. What’s included in the rental price?

   The price includes the yacht rental, captain, crew, fuel (for local trips), soft drinks, and water. Additional services like catering, DJs, jet skis, and luxury transfers are available upon request.

5. Can I bring my own food and drinks?

   Yes! You are more than welcome to bring your own food and drinks on board.

   For yachts equipped with a full-size kitchen, we also offer private chef services to elevate your dining experience. Additional fees apply.

6. Will we see dolphins or whales?

   While we can’t guarantee dolphin or whale sightings, dolphins are very common in the waters off Southern California, and there's a good chance you'll spot them during your trip.

   For whale watching, the best time is during migration season from December to April, when whales travel closer to shore—especially near Zuma Beach. Let us know if you're interested in a wildlife-focused experience, and we'll help plan the best route!
