Your only job is to show up
From the moment you arrive at the marina to the moment you step ashore, your experience is our only priority.
We handle the menu, the provisions, the navigation, and your safety. Your only job is to show up and be present for something extraordinary.
The Only Luxury Viking Charter in the Region
No other operator within 60 miles north or south runs a luxury offshore Viking Convertible.
A private chef aboard every charter
Most operators offer catered food trays. With Channel Islands Executive Charters, you get a private chef cooking from a Sub-Zero galley with locally sourced ingredients.
Six guests maximum
Your experience is never diluted, your privacy is never compromised, and our crew's attention never leaves you.
Remote Access to ‘california’s galapagos’
Our harbor position gives us direct access to remote, uncrowded areas of the Northern Channel Islands that southern operators simply cannot reach.
Every charter
designed around you
Charter experiences include offshore sport fishing, whale watching and dolphin encounters, corporate retreats, private celebrations, overnight stays, and custom-designed packages tailored to you.
The signature custom charter
Some experiences don’t fit into a standard package. A proposal at anchor, an expedition to the Channel Islands with a private chef, or a corporate retreat that ends with the team pulling a yellow fish tuna from the open water.
Whatever it looks like for you, tell us the experience you’ve been imagining and we’ll create a custom charter designed entirely around you.

Gain an experience you’ll still be describing years from now
Modern life can be relentless. This is what happens to the people
who finally step away from it for an afternoon, an evening, or three full
dayson the open Pacific.
Recharged & reconnected
Step ashore genuinely relaxed and reconnected with what matters. The kind of reset no conference room or resort can produce.
Bonds that outlast the day
Families and teams bond in ways that nothing else can replicate. Corporate clients leave with colleagues and partners who feel genuinely valued.
A memory that stays
Experience something people describe years later as "the best day I've ever had." Not just a milestone you celebrate, it’s a milestone in itself.
A quiet sense of pride
"I made it. And this moment proves it." This is the feeling that comes from arranging something genuinely extraordinary for the people who matter most.
