Sailing   San   Diego   and   Beyond

San   diego   catamaran     c h a r t e r  , san diego catamaran charter options.

West Coast Multihulls offers visitors the best in San Diego sailing charter vacations. Sun, temperate climate, a vibrant city and some of the best cruising waters in America make San Diego Bay the premier charter destination on the West Coast.

Captained Charters

Leave all your worries behind as you and your favorite people cruise the bay or ocean in style. For a crewed catamaran charter in San Diego, NO SAILING EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED. You will board one of our spacious catamarans and simply enjoy the ride as you explore San Diego Bay, the ocean outside the bay, or even head off to Mission Bay, Catalina or other points of interest.

Captained charters mean that the yacht is rented with a professional crew consisting of at least a licensed captain who is responsible for the maneuvering of the yacht. In some cases the captain is aided by other crew members as well. Typically they operate solo.

Bareboat Charters

You and your crew are free to choose your own itinerary, and experience the thrill of full command of a modern sailing catamaran.

We accept ASA 114 Certifications. Note that charterers holding ASA 114 Certification, but lacking prior bareboat catamaran charter experience will be required to hire one of our licensed captains for a supplemental training at the beginning of their first bareboat charter with WCM.

Charter Itinerary Ideas for Sailing San Diego

Whether a bareboat charter, or a private charter with captain, the choice of where to go is largely yours to make. So, we get asked all the time:

What should we do? Where should we go? What is there to do when sailing around San Diego?

There is plenty to do, and the specifics have to do more with your interests than anything else. So let us know what you’re interested in, how you like to spend your time, and we help you craft an itinerary that makes the most of what this great sailing area has to offer.

Scroll through some of these great ideas…

catamaran boat ride san diego

Key things to consider:

  • If your group includes kids, don’t try to do to much, in particular sailing. Make sure to plan for plenty of water play and/or beach time.
  • If your group includes those prone to sea sickness, plan to stay inside the bay. They’ll have MUCH more fun, and you can get in a lot of great sailing without worrying about everyone else’s comfort.
  • If you’re new to sailing, and new to San Diego, you’ll have a licensed captain along that is very familiar with all the great spots to go. Explain to them what your preferences are, and then sit back and let them do all the work!
  • Find a San Diego festival, conference or concert, and schedule your charter around this event. It’s a unique way to experience San Diego, and you’ll have better lodging than anyone else!

Here are some sample San Diego sailing itineraries to get your gears turning:

Long weekend around San Diego Bay Day 1: Glorietta Bay Day 2: Coronado Cays Day 3: La Playa Cove Day 4: Back to WCM

Or… a weeklong coastal hopping getaway to Catalina Day 1: SD-Oceanside Day 2: O-Side to Newport Day 3: Newport to Two Harbors, Catalina Day 4: Explore Catalina Day 5: Two Harbors to Avalon, fun ashore Day 6: Avalon to Mission Bay Day 7: Mission Bay to WCM Harbor Island

catamaran boat ride san diego

Long Weekend San Diego Bay Day One: Sail from WCM to Glorietta Bay at Coronado, Wander the beaches ashore, do a pub crawl, get in a game of golf or cruise the cute downtown area and sample the excellent variety of restaurants.

Day Two: Start your day with a surfing session right across the road. Have a lovely midday sail past embarcadero and Nimitz on the way to La Playa Cove, tucked behind Shelter Island. Explore the marinas in the dinghy, stop by Fathom Brewing and Bistro on the fishing pier, and relax on the hook. If you time it right, you might be able to take in a concert at Humphrey’s from your dinghy – a classic San Diego experience.

Day Three: Wake late, make breakfast aboard, and take a short morning sail out to the ocean to look for whales and dolphins. Time your return with the tide and zoom back into the bay all the way back to the WCM base at Harbor Islands Safe Harbor Sunroad.

Long Weekend Mission Bay: Your Mission, should you accept it, is to grab your catamaran from WCM in San Diego Bay, and sail north (about 9 miles or so) to Mission Bay, specifically Mariner’s Cove, where you will partake in beach living at it’s finest. Wake with the sun, swim, walk the beach, surf, grab cocktails, eat a nice meal ashore. Rinse and repeat. This message will not self-destruct, but you might if you don’t plan your escape to Mission Bay today.

Heard Around The Docks...

Our first Sailing adventure was with West Coast Multihulls, and it was easily the most remarkable experience of our lives. With 2 kids, we were unsure where to start. WCM and Captain Ryan both went above and beyond to ensure that my entire family enjoyed every aspect of our trip. It's all our kids want to talk about since getting back on land. We can't wait to come back! Josh C
I took my wife and her friends out for her birthday. Capitan Trevor is the man, and made sure everyone had the best time possible. The next day she told me it was her best birthday yet. I highly recommend! jtmartin77 - via TripAdvisor
I wish I could give our experience 10 stars. 11 ladies took a morning cruise for my bachelorette, and it was the perfect laid back morning I was looking for. The boat was beyond amazing: plenty of lounge area, a big table for eating, a fridge to load everything into and speakers for jams... everyone had the best time! Amanda H

Triton Charters

We sailed 6,300 miles to bring you the best Catamaran yacht rental in San Diego

How the triton

Yacht rental, arrived in san diego.

In search of the largest catamaran yacht we could find, we started searching all over the United States. Upon searching, we found a hidden gem in the middle of Texas on Lake Lewisville in Galveston, TX. With many flights back and forth, we decided to pull the trigger and make one of the longest voyages a sailor can make. It took an entire year of planning, rebuilding, and a 38-day sail, to get Triton to its new home of San Diego, California.
