Elegant Dining at Sea

We believe that dining onboard should be just as extraordinary as the view.

You'll have the option to choose between:

 

●     Tapas Menu

Your on-board private chef prepares your custom planned array of curated small plates paired perfectly with wine and breathtaking surroundings. Ideal for the 3- to 4-hour evening experience, this is a stylish, relaxed way to enjoy multiple flavors while keeping your attention on the scenery and conversation.

 

●     Gourmet Chef Experience

Elevate your journey and have your on-board chef prepare a custom multi-course meal that could feature selections like Omakase-style sushi, Maine lobster, Wagyu beef, and caviar. This option transforms your evening into a culinary voyage and is best enjoyed with 4+ hours of cruising.

Designed for the Moments That Matter

Every charter is personal. From intimate date nights to surprise proposals or anniversaries, a Sunset Dinner Cruise San Francisco is crafted to capture and elevate these special moments.

Here are just a few types of experiences guests often enjoy:

●     Romantic Celebrations

Imagine sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge as you toast with champagne. Add candles, roses, or even a harpist or string quartet. Design the most memorable proposal or anniversary celebration.
