Luxury Yacht Rentals.
June 27 2022, Mercedes-Benz Vancouver
One of the best ways to enjoy Vancouver’s gorgeous summer season is to explore the rugged coastline of the Pacific Northwest—and there’s no better way than in a luxury yacht.
If a large-group adventure is your dream come true, invite your closest friends on a week-long getaway with Paradise Charters. Their seven-night-long trip aboard a 110-foot-long yacht is fully customizable and includes three cabins for guests, plus a crew cabin, and lets you explore the waters off Vancouver Island (or anywhere coastal) to your heart’s content. Paradise also offers shorter options—from 4-hour trips, to a couple of days—aboard a few different vessels.
Interested in a family-friendly Gulf Island adventure? Blackfish Marine offers a three-day Luxury Gabriola package—with an experienced captain/fishing instructor in tow—that whisks guests from Granville Island Marina to Gabriola Island on a roomy Marquis 59 Italian yacht. Catch fresh crab for dinner, cool off with a dip in the ocean, and take in the natural beauty from the deck on this seafaring getaway.
Infinity Yachts takes a choose-your-own-adventure approach to all journeys; from the Sunshine Coast to the Gulf Islands, to Desolation Sound or Haida Gwaii, the coastal waters are your oyster. For each charter, the company looks at the best place to begin and end each charter, positioning yachts in prime locations ahead of time before a client arrives by, say, charter float plane. Of their fleet, we can’t take our eyes off Komokwa, a 135-foot yacht that sleeps up to 12 in six stunning staterooms. Infinity also offers family-friendly charters and itinerary recommendations to make them fun.
If a short sailing journey floats your boat more than an extravagant yachting trip, book a three-hour scenic journey of Howe Sound through Canadian Coastal Sailing. This expert company will zip you and a group of up to 12 people for a three-hour journey, departing from scenic Squamish. Spot kiteboarders jumping waves in the wind, and possibly dolphins or orcas as well. They also offer a romantic Sunset Sail option for up to 10 people.
