WHAT OUR GUESTS ARE SAYING

Kenne and Olivia went above and beyond for me and my friends. Their boat was easily a great fit for the four of us. Olivia helped us refill drinks, food, and anything else we needed. Captain Kenne set up a route that allowed us to sightsee around the San Diego Bay. By far the best birthday I've had in years!
Captain Kenne and his wife were absolutely fantastic. We booked them to celebrate our 11-year old son's birthday, and our tour guides did not disappoint! We were very impressed with the professionalism, safety, and overall experience.
We had the best time with Captain Kenne and his wife. The yacht was super clean and spacious for six people. They took the best pictures of us, and took us sightseeing before we could jump to swim in the water. I would 100% rent this yacht again.

Captain Kenne was wonderful! Very professional and personable at the same time. Our family chartered his boat for two hours. He was very responsive to our questions and communicated with us all we needed to know for our trip out to sea. Very well equipped boat with great attention to safety and all our needs.

San Diego Yacht Charters and Captain Kenne are outstanding.  We are visiting San Diego for the first time and our concierge recommended this charter as the best.  We're happy to say that our morning on the bay was a great experience from beginning to end. Captain Kenne is an excellent host, knowledgable, and does a great job showcasing the local sights and providing interesting backstories.  The boat is top of the line and so comfortable. Strongly recommend San Diego Yacht Charters to anyone looking for a great charter!

We had such an amazing time! Captain Kenne was great as always. This was the second time we cruised with them and both times were great. I definitely recommend them for anyone who wants to have a great day on the water or just a relaxing sunset cruise they are the perfect charter.
