Los Angeles: Luxury Cruise with Wine, Cheese & Sea Lions

1.Luxury Cruise with Wine, Cheese & Sea Lions

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 116 reviews · 2 hours · from $119Our pick

Spend two hours on a private or small-group electric Duffy boat in Marina del Rey. Your captain, possibly Tyler, Shaun, Maxx, or Mike, serves two glasses of red or white wine with a charcuterie board while pointing out sea lions, birds, boathouses, and yachts.

“The boat was immaculately clean, had blankets if needed. Very comfortable. The wine & cheese plate was beautifully prepared, our glass was never empty. Shaun, our guide, was charming & knowledgeable. He had a perfect playlist on his phone and showed us the area as the sun was setting. I highly recommended the tour, especially the 5:00, was at a beautiful time of day on the water.”

3.Romantic Boat Cruise with Wine & Cheese or Surprise Dinner

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 14 reviews · 1 hour - 90 minutes · from $129

You’ll cruise Marina del Rey aboard a private or shared electric Duffy boat with Captain Shaun or another English-speaking captain. Expect two glasses of wine, music, blankets, marina views, and optional charcuterie, sushi, or a surprise dinner. Sunset trips may include sea lions and close views of the jetty.

“Shaun our duffy driver was amazing. I love how close he got us to the sunset and how we chased the best view possible around the jetty. Would definitely recommend getting the wine and cheese pairing— he plays romantic french music in the background and shares lots of facts about surrounding architecture and boats while we pass them by. If you are looking for a silent and intimate ride with your partner you should probably tell Shaun beforehand, otherwise you may feel interrupted by his tourguide style interjections. (I at first wanted no talking just the romantic music with my husband but as he kept pointing stuff out and trying…”
