Short drives from City of Industry deliver big-sea rewards: private yachts, Malibu voyages and multiday trimaran escapes from Marina del Rey for intimate groups and celebratory trips.

City of Industry travelers who want ocean air and private luxury need only look to nearby Marina del Rey—a compact quay of marinas and charter operators that stage everything from three-hour harbor cruises to multiday island passages.

This lineup collects high-end, operator-listed options suited to small groups, families and celebratory parties: a 74-foot admiral-class motor yacht for sunset dinners, a 50-foot private cruise to Malibu’s exclusive anchorages, and a range of multihull and catamaran charters that make Catalina and beyond accessible for weekends.

Across these choices you’ll find consistent essentials: experienced captains, room for a dozen guests, and flexible itineraries that let you tailor a day-sail, sunset run or overnight island stay. Use this guide to match mood, group size and timing to the right vessel, and follow the planning checks before you board.

3–10 hoursPrivateUp to 12 guests

The 74′ Admiral offers expansive decks and an interior suited to small private events.

If your itinerary centers on a single, polished outing—anniversary dinner, corporate gathering, or a milestone birthday—the 74′ Admiral is built for it. The vessel combines roomy exterior decks with a comfortable interior, allowing guests to move between sun-soaked observation points and a sheltered dining salon. Operators list the yacht as appropriate for casual harbor cruises, elegant sunset dinners and short coastal escapes, and the onboard provisioning includes soft drinks and water as standard.

Operational notes supplied with the listing emphasize comfort and straightforward logistics: captains experienced with Santa Monica Bay navigation, a clean and well-maintained vessel, and a booking flow that supports one-off events. For groups that prioritize service and a refined seaside setting without the complexity of overnight provisioning, this yacht is the practical, high-impact choice.

02 · Best for classic Malibu days

50ft 'Alokoy' 6 Hour Malibu Voyage: surf-side cruising and swim stops

6 hoursPrivateAll ages
Private yacht cruising past the Malibu coastline
A private run to Carbon Beach or Paradise Cove—ideal for sunbathing and paddleboarding.

This six-hour private cruise is built around the classic Malibu day: a relaxed transit past Venice Beach and the Santa Monica coastline, then a 90-minute anchorage at a prized Malibu spot such as Carbon Beach or Paradise Cove. The charter includes captain and crew, fuel and docking fees, soft drinks and beach-ready extras like a stand-up paddleboard—leaving food and adult beverages as BYO so groups can customize the menu.

For small groups and family celebrations the Alokoy itinerary is attractively straightforward: seaside cruising, a dedicated swim stop, and easy access for guests who want to get in the water or relax on deck. The operator notes seasonal pricing differences and optional crew additions; if your party values a full day on the water with room to spread out, this cruise is purpose-built.

03 · Best for overnight island sailing

COGETO 47ft trimaran: weekend escapes and island hopping

1 day or moreMultiday optionUp to 12
47ft trimaran under sail with clear blue water
The Neel 47 trimaran offers cabins and range for multiday itineraries to Catalina and beyond.

For travelers who want to shift from day-sail to true marine escape, the COGETO 47ft trimaran provides cabins, berths and the seaworthiness to run overnight passages. The vessel is described as suitable for weekend getaways to Catalina Island and longer island-hopping itineraries; with four cabins and two heads, it can host a dozen guests across short multiday charters.

The operator-supplied listing makes clear the trade-offs and inclusions: bareboat and crewed options, service fees, and a number of standard inclusions such as insurance and dinghy. If your group prefers to sleep on the water, step ashore in island towns, and treat the charter as a compact marine adventure rather than a single-day event, a trimaran like this is the logical pick.
