Charter a Private Yacht

First up, consider booking a private yacht charter for a more intimate experience. Check out the yacht charter companies listed in the Marina del Rey yacht charter directory offer a variety of vessels to suit your preferences. Depending on your budget, you can hire a boat captain to do the driving while you sit back and enjoy the ride.

Our tip: Make sure the vessel you charter has been inspected and certificated for commercial use by the U.S. Coast Guard. Confirm your operator has commercial charter insurance, and if you are hiring a skipper, confirm he or she is certified with a valid commercial captain’s license.
