Set sail from Marina del Rey with LEI Boat Charter’s versatile fleet. From quick harbor cruises to full-day yacht charters, experience Southern California’s coastline in style and comfort.
Marina del Rey, California, is the largest man-made small craft harbor in North America, sprawling across 4,600 wet slip berths and offering a gateway to the Pacific’s open waters. LEI Boat Charter stands out in this vibrant maritime hub, delivering a diverse fleet of yachts and catamarans designed for tailored experiences on the water. From quick 2-hour zips on a 70' Hattaras to full-day luxury sails aboard a 105' Broward Yacht, this company shapes each trip to match your pace and style.
The array of vessels includes sleek sailing yachts like the 51' Classic Sailing Yacht, spacious catamarans such as the 46' Bali and 42' Lagoon models, and powerfully elegant motor yachts like the 55' Marquis Flybridge. Whether you opt for a half-day harbor cruise timed perfectly for sunset or a multi-hour excursion across the bay, LEI Boat Charter’s offering encourages hands-on or relaxed sailing—whatever your preference.
Marina del Rey’s coastal environment offers fresh ocean breezes, the occasional pod of dolphins, and expansive views of Los Angeles’s skyline against the natural backdrop. This access to diverse marine environments—from protected harbor waters to open ocean swells—makes LEI Boat Charter a unique player in Southern California’s outdoor adventuring scene.
A trip with this operator is both an introduction to the local marine ecosystem and a chance to engage with the rhythms of the sea. The company’s multiple vessel options create a range of opportunities—from vibrant social outings to quiet moments spotting seabirds or casting a line.
