Mai Tai Music Sunset Coastal Cruise

More About Our Sunset Cruise Experience

Join us for an unforgettable sunset coastal cruise, where the beauty of the open ocean meets golden skies, live music, and refreshing Mai Tais! This enchanting evening voyage offers the perfect blend of relaxation and entertainment as you cruise along Southern California’s scenic coastline.

Step aboard our spacious power catamaran and feel the warm sea breeze as you embark on a night of pure coastal bliss. As the summer sun dips toward the horizon, painting the sky in vibrant shades of orange and pink, enjoy the tropical rhythms of “Sounds of Paradise”, our live steel drummer, whose island-inspired beats set the perfect tone for your sunset escape.

Indulge in the tropical flavors of our signature mai tai and let each sip of this classic cocktail transport you to a paradise of summer bliss. It’s the perfect pairing for a summer evening at sea. Our bar also offers a variety of other refreshing beverages to suit your taste, including craft beer, wine, hard seltzers, and soft drinks.

As we cruise just beyond the harbor and along the coastline, you’ll be treated to panoramic ocean views, dramatic coastal cliffs, and the occasional cameo from dolphins, sea birds, or other marine life. Please note: while whales and dolphins naturally inhabit these waters, this experience is a scenic sunset cruise, not a dedicated whale watching trip.

Whether you’re dancing under the stars, sharing laughs with friends, or simply soaking in the salty breeze, this sunset cruise is the perfect way to celebrate summer.

Don’t miss this magical experience where music, mai tais, and a breathtaking coastal sunset come together to create unforgettable memories. Let the rhythm of the waves carry you into the perfect summer night.
