Top Spring Break Events to Enjoy from the Water
Spring is one of the most exciting times of year in San Diego, with festivals, waterfront events, and perfect weather. Chartering a yacht lets you experience these events in a completely unique way.
San Diego Crew Classic
Held every spring on Mission Bay, the San Diego Crew Classic is one of the largest rowing regattas in the country. Watching the races from the water offers a completely different perspective compared to standing on shore.

Spring Whale Watching Season
Spring break coincides with peak whale migration season along the Southern California coast. Gray whales and dolphins are frequently spotted just offshore.
A private yacht charter offers one of the best ways to witness these incredible animals in their natural habitat—far from crowded tour boats.
