A compact, private yacht vacation launched from Long Beach, the Catalina Island Multiday Private Charter places you aboard WET DREAMS for three days and two nights under the care of Captain Sebastian Claeys and his First Mate. The vessel acts as both transport and a floating suite—two staterooms, a full bathroom, galley, BBQ and lounge—while paddleboards, snorkeling gear and chef-prepared meals turn the trip into a small, self-contained island escape.

THE VESSEL

WET DREAMS: A Private Mini-Vacation Yacht

This private charter is run aboard WET DREAMS, a yacht with two staterooms, a full bathroom, galley, marine BBQ and lounge area. The boat sleeps four guests comfortably and offers private mini-suites, turn-down service and fresh linens—an intimate floating base for your Catalina stay.

THE FOOD

Gourmet Onboard Meals Included

Meals are a featured amenity: gourmet breakfast and dinner service are included, with four entrée choices and vegetarian and vegan options. Two of the three daily meals are prepared and cooked on the yacht by the crew, with breakfast and elite dinner services timed to the day and evening rhythms of the cruise.

THE ROUTE

Catalina Mooring and a Cave Excursion

The ride to Catalina covers just over 26 miles to Avalon, where the yacht will be assigned a mooring slip to serve as your home for the stay. On the third day the captain includes a cave excursion roughly one mile north of Avalon before the return to port.

What the day feels like

What the Three Days Feel Like

The rhythm is deliberate and intimate: an early start on day one for the 26-mile crossing, a day spent at sea along Avalon Bay with the yacht moored as your base, and a final morning cave excursion before an early afternoon return to the mainland. Meals, gear and a small crew make this a hands-off, pampered way to experience Catalina’s coastline from the water.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this charter suits—and who it doesn’t.

1
Couples & romantic getawaysIdeal for couples seeking a private, suite-like experience afloat: the yacht’s two staterooms and turn-down service provide intimate accommodations within the vessel’s four-guest capacity.
2
Small groups of friendsDesigned for small parties—up to three additional guests—this charter works well for a group of up to four who want privacy and a curated onboard experience.
3
Large groups or eventsNot a fit for larger parties: the yacht’s sleeping and guest limits make it unsuitable for groups beyond four people.
4
Travelers prioritizing privacyWell suited to travelers who value a private charter and personalized service from a small crew, within the confines of a four-guest capacity.
