Why Choose a Catamaran Charter?

If you’re looking for a San Diego yacht rental, you have options; we aren’t going to pretend to be the only boat in the bay. But, if you have ever experienced a sail on a cat, you’ll know why we are a bit biased.

Catamarans offer much more space than monohull boats making them the perfect choice for groups; on a catamaran there really is no bad seat.

Catamarans also offer more stability with less rocking back and forth than monohull boats, which can help with seasickness.

Thanks to their shallow draft, catamarans can access areas of the bay too shallow for most boats.

Triton is the largest catamaran in The Big Bay and one of the only options in San Diego if you are looking for a private catamaran charter that can hold up to 100 people.

Triton catamaran made her maiden voyage to San Diego in August 1st 2020. She is a brand new, GC70, 75 ft day charter catamaran that boasts capacity for 100 passengers and a large deck with outdoor seating.

Your charter will start in Mission Bay near the Quivira Basin and journey out to the ocean. Once in the ocean, you have the choice to either go north towards La Jolla, or south towards Point Loma. Both options have gorgeous views of the California coastline!

How long should we rent the yacht for?

Malarky has a minimum of 2 hours required to rent the boat. That being said, to get the most of the yacht charter experience we recommend 3-4 hours. This will allow you to anchor and play in Mariners Bay, and also explore the gorgeous San Diego coastline.

where are you located?

Malarky Charters address is   1441 Quivira Rd. San Diego, CA 92109 . We are located on the backside of the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay in front of the marketplace on the docks. The marketplace is titled “Market Mission Bay.” Once booked, you will receive a confirmation email with parking and walking instructions.

what is your cancelation policy?

All cancellations are to be made 14 days prior to the scheduled departure time to receive a full refund. Cancellation made within 14 days of the charter will forfeit their deposit. Any cancellations made within 72 hours before the charter will forfeit the full amount of the contracted services and are non-refundable.

Where do we go on the yacht charter?

Unlike other yacht rentals, Malarky Charters does not give you a “cookie cutter” experience. Our captain and crew will recommend a route, but ultimately you can go wherever you want!

What will we see during the charter?

During your private yacht rental, expect to see an array of wildlife and gorgeous scenery while cruising the coastline. Often we will see dolphins, gray whales, blue whales, birds, sea lions and more! 

What do we need to bring?

Malarky Charters allows you to bring your own food and drinks (this includes alcohol). Be sure to bring food that is easily accessible and easy to clean up! Please do not bring any red wine aboard, or glass cups. All liquids contained in glass will be put into plastic cups. Feel free to bring towels, sunscreen and a big smile!

What are some popular occasions to rent your yacht?

Celebrate any occasion you can imagine on Malarky Charters! Some of our most popular events are birthday parties, bachelorette parties, corporate outings, family gatherings, intimate wedding receptions, and more!

What types of Add-Ons do you have?

Our add-ons are another great reason to choose Malarky Charters. We have paddle boards, lily pads, tower pads, kayaks, a waterslide and more! Please give us a call or send an email to set up your boat rental add-ons!

HOSPITALITY

Adventure Without Limits

One of the many things that set us apart from other sailing options in San Diego is that we are Coast Guard certified to sail in the open ocean, not just in the San Diego Bay. This leaves your options wide open for your custom yacht charter. San Diego has many amazing shoreline attractions for day trips, sunset sailing & sunset cruises, as well as unforgettable overnight trips to Catalina Island, where you can anchor for one or more nights and explore that unique, sparsely populated and idyllic island. For the wildlife lover, the months of November through April tend to be perfect for getting up close and personal with Gray, Finback, and even Blue Whales during their southern migration down to Mexico. Other amazing ocean creatures such as pods of dolphins, sharks, sea lions, and seals can be observed year-round as well. Our expertly-trained captain and crew make for a safe and non-disruptive experience for the wildlife, and a smooth and comfortable experience for our guests. On-board, we have modern audio-visual capabilities for corporate presentations or private celebrations with 2 interior flat screen TV’s and surround sound.

March, 2024

Celebrated my bachelorette on Jon’s boat with my closest friends and family and we had an absolute blast. The boat was a perfect size, and Jon provided several amenities that helped create a great atmosphere for our party. We would definitely consider booking with Jon again and highly recommend his service!

My friends and I had a great day on the boat with Louis! We had some rain and wind while out on the water and Louis took us to a covered spot to wait it out. He kept an eye on the weather and brought us to a part of the bay with less wind. The boat was clean and spacious and had all that we needed! Overall awesome experience! Highly recommend

It has become a tradition to rent a boat every year for my birthday ever since I was 16 years old and I just turned 26. I recently had the pleasure of embarking on an unforgettable adventure with Captain Jonathan and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From start to finish his exceptional communication skins and infectious energy make our day on the water so much fun! His expertise shone through as he guided us to the best spot on the bay ensuring we had the best blend of relaxation and fun! From providing us access to paddle boarding, kayaking and the best part the water slide! He went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time and let us hook up our phone to his new speakers on the boat which you could hear all around! The rooftop was my favorite part, he even let us jump off which was a crowd favorite. What truly set him apart from the other captains I’ve had in the past was he was having as much fun as we were and jumped right into the water with us. He even went diving in to find one of my friends cell phone that she dropped while having too much fun lol! The boat was in incredible conditions it looked brand new, you can tell he takes such care and passion over his boat. Overall his professionalism, warmth and enthusiasm made our day one I will never forget! Look no further and book him asap!! I can’t wait to come back to PB next year!

The boat ride was absolutely amazing. It was a lovely ride and experience for me and my family. Captain Mark and his crew were exceptional.They made us feel comfortable and we all had a great time. Would definitely recommend and do it again next time I visit! Thank you for everything!

60' Luxury Hatteras Yacht for Private Charters & Party Cruises

We had a great day on the water and Chris was a terrific captain and host. He took us all around the bay to point out the sites and was very attentive to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves.

February, 2024

Booked this beautiful boat for my 27th birthday celebration with 15 people. The boat is very beautiful and well taken care off. Captain provided Bluetooth speaker for the music. The boat is very spacious and has a lot of options to roam around and enjoy different views. We saw the beautiful Coronado bridge and downtown along with the sunset. We were able to bring food and drinks, they had plates and paper towels. They took pictures of us and stopped the boat for some nice views. It was a lot of fun and would recommend it to anyone looking for. Will definitely be back especially in the summer

Top 5 Yacht Rental Companies In San Diego

yacht-rental-san-diego[63].jpg

Sponsored Content Provided by Triton Charters

San Diego yacht rentals have surged in popularity since the lockdowns started back in 2020 for good reason. Renting a yacht is the ultimate stay-cation retreat. Living it up on a party yacht, feeling the cool breeze of the Pacific and the warm SD sun on your face is an unbeatable experience.

Whether you’re looking for the ultimate bachelorette party idea, celebrating a new job with friends, or even hosting your wedding on the water a yacht will give you the wow effect you’re looking for.

There are over a dozen San Diego yacht rental companies to choose from, so we’ve decided to make it easy and break down the top five. Make it a summer, spring or fall to remember by booking from our list of the best charter companies in town. Let’s get started.

triton-yacht-rental-san-diego[45].jpg

#1) Triton Charters

Triton Charters is home to the largest catamaran yacht in all of San Diego at a whopping 75 feet long, and also the top-rated. Although the Triton has only been here for a couple of years it’s made a huge splash on the San Diego yacht rental scene.

It’s 75 feet of pure fun and has already amassed over 135 5 star reviews on Google and 75 reviews on Yelp with a 4.5 star rating. Looking deeper at the Triton will give you a good understanding of why it’s become the most popular yacht charter in San Diego.

It has a 13-seat bar, extra-large dance floor, and an ultra modern design, with plenty of seating in the front and back to allow for large numbers of sunbathers. Their website provides its customers with a 3D Tour of the yacht as well!

Capacity: As the largest catamaran in SD, it comfortably fits up to 100 passengers, which makes it perfect for large events like weddings, vow renewals, corporate events, fundraisers and family reunions. Even if you don’t plan on hosting that many people, the sheer amount of loungeable space makes it a good choice for smaller groups.

Add-Ons: With most SD yacht charter companies in San Diego Bay you’re stuck with the basics. Bartender, local catering and that’s about it. Not with the Triton. The Triton offers a number of adrenaline-inducing add-ons that make it the best party yacht in San Diego. You can choose from low key options like ocean kayaks, paddle boards, and lily pads to splash and sunbathe on.

For the adrenaline junkies they also offer a number of thrilling add-ons like high powered jet skis, electric surfboards and jetpacks. The jetpacks can get up to 35 feet in the air, giving you spectacular views of the bay and city, but for first timers they’ll recommend maxing out around 20 feet.

Triton Charters also has great relationships with local music talent if you’re looking for live music  to play your wedding reception, or be serenaded after you pop the question on an engagement cruise. Of course, they have friendly bartenders, djs and local catering for a true party environment.

Pricing: Booking a San Diego yacht rental can be on the pricey side, but Triton is relatively cost effective when considering some of the other options on the water. For up to 40 guests on a 4 hour cruise you’re looking at around $3,300 before add-ons. Other providers can cost over $10,000 for the same experience without add-ons.

–       Super friendly crew and bartenders.

–       Fun add-ons not offered by others.

–       Better pricing than competitors.

–       Least restrictive deposit policy.

–       Hundreds of 5 star reviews.

–       White glove planning service for events.

–       Availability on weekends during peak season. They sell out fast so you should look to book at least a month out.

maalarky-yacht-rental[69].jpg

#2) Malarky Charters

If you’re looking for something a little smaller your best bet is the Malarky which has been around for over 5 years. It’s a little more than half the size of the Triton, and only fits 12 people which is fine if you’re hosting a smaller gathering.

Like the Triton, it has an indoor lounge that’s a little smaller but comfortable enough for 12 people to take a break from the sun if needed.

Since it made its way to San Diego, it’s been very well received. It’s accumulated 135 5 star reviews on Tripadvisor, 76 5 star reviews on Google and a perfect 5 star rating on Yelp with 28 reviews.

Some of the key mentions in the reviews are that the staff are extremely friendly and experienced. They make every guest feel as though they’re family. As a small, family-owned business they really bring a superior level of customer service.

Capacity: The Malarky is 47 feet long, has a full kitchen, four bedrooms for rest, two bathrooms and plenty of space in the front and back of the catamaran for 12 people. The bow even has a trampoline if you’re feeling like attempting that backflip into the water on a hot day.

Add Ons: The Malarky yacht rental luckily has the same add on options as the Triton like jet skis, electric surfboards and famous jetpacks. Unfortunately, there isn’t a massive bar like on the Triton, so plan on a BYOB situation if you’re looking for a consistent supply of drinks during your trip.

Pricing: The pricing is more reasonable than the Triton, which makes it perfect for proposals, bachelorette/bachelor parties, small family gatherings or celebrations. For a 4 hour cruise through the bay with up to 12 guests you’ll be paying around $2,200. This is about $1,000 less than the Triton, and the Malarky tends to have special discounts occasionally.

–       All the exciting add on options that the Triton has.

–       Extremely friendly and accommodating crew.

–       Full kitchen for a cookout on the water.

–       Comfortable, shaded seating options in the front and back.

–       Spacious indoor lounge for eating and relaxing away from the sun.

–       Pricing is more reasonable than the Triton.

–       Only has a 12 guest capacity.

–       Doesn’t have a full bar or bartender as an option. It’s BYOB.

–       No dancefloor.

#3) Yacht Rental San Diego

Yacht Rental San Diego is the only boat rental service that allows the user to input the occasion date, amount of guests, and budget and quickly texts you a list of yachts (and discounts) that fit your needs.

One of the benefits of using this charter company is the fact that you have access to not only different yachts, but also differing capacities that range from 1 person all the way up to 100 people.

Capacity: They utilize 12 different yachts, all with differing capacities, bar options, crew options, and food options.

Add-Ons: Similar to many of the other yacht charter companies, Yacht Rental San Diego can provide lily pads, slides, hosted bars, catering, and more.

Pricing: Ranging from $40 for tickets all the way up to $2,500 per hour.

–       It’s really nice that they utilize an easy, step-by-step way to get exactly what you want from a yacht. Not only that, but they text your phone with a few different yacht options.

–       Availability is typically better than Malarky or Triton due to the fact there are more charter options available.

–       They don’t have the personal touch of event planners like the Triton and Malarky have, so if you’re looking for an event coordinator, look elsewhere.

#4) Luxury Liners

If you’re looking for a more traditional yacht rental in San Diego, Luxury Liners is an option. They have multiple yachts available to choose from, so you can go big or small and can charter for multiple days if you want to travel up to LA and are willing to spend big bucks.

Unlike the Triton or Malarky, Luxury Liners is not a family owned business, it’s more of a marketplace of yachts that you would charter through a broker, meaning they don’t own any of the yachts that they rent.

Because they take a commission on top of the owners of the other businesses, on average, you’re probably going to spend upwards of $6,000 for a 4 hour cruise and not really get the customer service level you can expect with the Triton or Malarky.

However, Luxury Liners has locations all across the world, so if you’re in San Diego and looking to rent a yacht in Florida or Greece, Luxury Liners would likely be your best choice.

Their yachts range from 52 feet to 132 feet, so there is a wide range to suit many event types.

Capacity: Since they have about 20 yachts to choose from, the capacity varies from 12 guests all the way up to 76, but most are limited to 12.

Add-Ons: Unfortunately most of the yachts come with pretty standard add ons like simple flotation devices if you want to go swimming.

Pricing: The average price you’ll pay for a 4 hour cruise with 12 guests will be as low as $4,000 and as high as $23,000 for their most expensive option. As a worldwide yacht broker company, they don’t offer discounts on bookings.

–       Around 20 options to pick from with varying capacity and yacht types.

–       Typically more availability due to more choices.

–       More expensive than Triton or Malarky.

–       Lack of fun add-ons. Standard flotation devices.

–       Friendliness of captain and crew can be hit or miss.

–       Nonexistent reviews.

–       Most offerings aren’t well suited for events/parties.

yacht-charter-san-diego-life[14].jpg

#5) Yacht Life Charters

If options are critical in choosing a San Diego yacht rental, and price isn’t a factor, another option is Yacht Life Charters. Similar to Luxury Liners, Yacht Life Charters is a worldwide yacht broker site with around 18 options in San Diego.

For a 4 hour, half-day yacht rental you’ll spend between $2,100 and $8,500 per charter. They have more cost effective options than Luxury Liners, but capacity maxes out around 50 guests on their largest charter and the average is around 12.

The booking experience, since it’s marketplace, tends to be longer than it would be with a mom and pop like Malarky or Triton, but with 18 choices you’re likely going to have better availability during peak season (May-August).

The available yachts stretch from the smallest, called the Vintage speedster at 25’, all the way to the 105’ Astondoa. They have numerous high end, ultra modern designs, but the available add-ons are lacking compared to Malarky or Triton.

Yacht life charges a deposit of either $1,000 or 50% (whichever is higher) of the total charter cost, which can get pretty steep for some of their more expensive options. Unfortunately, the deposit is non-refundable in most cases so if something comes up at any point after the deposit is paid, you’re likely not getting any of your money back.

Capacity: There are a wide range of capacity options, that go from as low as 10 all the way up to 50 guests on one of their larger rentals. Most of the rentals have a maximum of 12. Most have both interior and exterior lounge space and most have at least 1 bathroom on board. If you’re looking to host a large event like a wedding or fundraiser, there are very few options.

Add-Ons: Similar to Luxury Liners, you really only have the ability to add on simple flotation devices and in some cases paddleboards. If you’re looking for exciting add ons, it’s best to go with Triton or Malarky.

Pricing: Yacht Life has a similar range of pricing to Luxury Liners, but they have a few more lower priced options with their smaller rentals. You’ll be paying about $2,100 for their smallest 4 hour charter and $8,500 for their largest option.

However, they do have membership rates available which can knock about $1,000 off the listed price if you plan on booking multiple charters each year across the world. Their membership rates are a one time fee and cost $2,000, $5,000 or $8,000 for their corporate membership.

–       18 options to choose from.

–       Range of pricing options

–       Discounted rates for paid members.

–       Better availability than Triton or malarky, about the same as Luxury Liners.

–       Must be worked out with a broker.

–       Discounts are for paid members only.

–       Little to no fun add ons available.

–       Non-refundable deposit.

–       Zero reviews.

–       Most options aren’t ideal for hosting events. Options are best for small gatherings.

Yacht Rental San Diego FAQ

You may have a few questions about renting a yacht in SD, so here are few answers to help you decide if it’s right for you this summer.

How Much Does It Cost to Rent A Yacht in San Diego?

There are a number of companies that offer San Diego yacht charters, with prices ranging from $3,300 to $11,300 for a 4 hour charter with 10-20 people. Triton Charters’ 75 foot catamaran yacht comes in at the $3,300 price tag for a 4 hour charter and gives you the best value for your money. Pricing varies based on the number of people and duration of your charter.

What Should I Bring For My San Diego Yacht Rental?  

We always suggest that you bring as few items as possible! Nothing is worse than running late to a yacht charter and barely making it on time. If you’re renting from a company that is BYOB and food, make sure you pack easily portable meals and drinks. Bring sunscreen, a towel, sunglasses, and a smile!

How Can I Book A Charter?

Most rental companies have booking software that gives live availability! If the website does not have a live calendar, you will have to fill out a booking request which takes a little more time.

Best Time Of Year To Rent A Yacht In San Diego?  

The best time to rent a yacht is……ALWAYS! Obviously the nicer the weather, the better the experience, but keep in mind you usually can get a better deal in the off-season. Peak season is usually from June through August.

Do Yacht Rentals Come With Food and Drinks?  

Some yacht rental companies in San Diego include food and drinks, but the majority don’t. The larger the yacht, the more likely that they will have food and drink packages. No charter company in San Diego includes food (that we know of) but they do have vendor lists for food.

Do You Need To Put A Deposit Down To Book A Charter?

Yes, with every San Diego yacht charter company you will need to put a deposit down, which can range from 10% all the way to 20% of the total charter cost. Malarky and Triton both offer a 10% deposit that is fully refundable if canceled more than 72 hours before your charter.

What Activities Are Available On San Diego Yacht Rentals?

In terms of activities, Triton Charters and Malarky Charters have the most possible add-ons to enjoy while on the water. If you’re looking for more than just a sip and sail adventure, here are a few of the add ons that both charter companies offer to make your trip more exciting and memorable:

–       High powered jet skis for a boost of adrenaline and fun during your charter.

–       Stand up paddle boards if you’re into exercising and feeling more of the open ocean.

–       Lily pads for safe splashing off the back of the catamarans.

–       Ocean kayaks which we highly recommend during whale watching season for getting closer to the action.

–       Waterslides for slipping and sliding to cool off in the summer heat.

–       Live music which is ideal for wedding ceremonies, bachelor/bachelorette parties, vow renewals or corporate events.

–       E-Surfboards for open water surfing and exploring,

–       Jetpacks and jet boards for the most adventurous of your guests, where you can soar up to 20 feet above the water.

If you feel like a San Diego yacht rental sounds like the perfect escape this summer, any of these companies will provide you with a fantastic time. If you’re looking for a toned down, more expensive, small group cruise we would recommend going with Yacht Rental San Diego .

If you want a more action packed experience or are hosting a big event, we recommend sticking with Triton Charters or Malarky Charters . Regardless of which you choose for your next mini getaway, we’re sure you’re going to have the time of your life! Just don’t forget your sunscreen.
