Boating destinations in California

With 900 miles of coastline, there are plenty of boating destinations to choose from. San Francisco and Oakland are more geared toward sailing adventures as the winds are generally in your favor. Plus, sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge is an experience you’ll never forget!

Huntington Beach and Newport Beach in SoCal are great sports to get on the water and watch dolphins and whales migrate during certain times of the year. Balboa Island sits in the middle of Newport Harbor, where you will find tiny cottages from the 1920s and 1930s that were symbolic summer getaways from busy Los Angeles.

People flock to San Diego to rent catamarans and sail to Catalina Island, which offers scenic views and pristine nature. And, of course, Lake Tahoe during the summer is beautiful and popular for motorboat rentals in California. And let’s not forget California yacht rentals in Los Angeles, where you may end up passing by celebrity-owned boats on the water!
