Operating private yacht charters on Point Loma's Shelter Island since 2007, San Diego Boat Tours runs a fleet of approximately two dozen power and sailing yachts at 2240 Shelter Island Drive. The fleet ranges from 21-foot vessels up to 143-foot yachts carrying groups of 1 to 48 guests, running power and sail platforms alongside Shelter Island sail-charter peer Pacifica Sailing Charters. The signature catamaran is Aolani, a 52-foot sailing cat used for group charters, with the power-yacht arm handling engagement-proposal setups, wedding at-sea packages, and surprise-birthday staging. Gray whale migrations December through March and summer blue whale appearances drive the whale-watching calendar, with Shelter Island departure points running concurrent passage past the Point Loma Submarine Base and the Star of India landmark. Post-charter dining for returning guests runs up and down the Shelter Island Drive corridor, with the Polynesian-themed Bali Hai Restaurant serving as a landmark post-tour dining destination since 1953. The flagship engagement is the customizable private yacht wedding, incorporating videographer staging, flower placement, onboard officiant setup, and guitarist coordination for ceremonies on San Diego Bay with full landmark skyline backdrop.
