A private, three-hour sailing charter from Long Beach with Jolly Sailing that lets small groups craft a mellow cruise, a windy sail, or a swim off the coast.
Three Hours on the Water: A Private Sail out of Long Beach.
A three-hour private charter from Long Beach condenses Pacific surf, harbor calm, and close-up marine life into a single easy half-day outing. On Jolly Sailing’s boat you can choose a relaxed, drink-and-apps cruise through Alamitos Bay or push past the break wall into open ocean for a more wind-forward experience — all with a restroom aboard and room for up to six passengers.

What Three Hours on a Private Sail Feels Like
Three hours aboard Jolly Sailing is deliberately flexible: the time is long enough to run the channels of Alamitos Bay or to head past the break wall into open ocean. Onboard the mood ranges from laid-back — drinks, apps, and watching the shoreline — to hands-on, with passengers able to help trim sails or take a quick dip when conditions allow.
