Booked a 2 hour cruise around the harbor for 7/11/23 and can't say enough how much my fiancé and I enjoyed it. We celebrated our 1 year anniversary and I surprised him with this and it was perfect. Jeremy, our boat captain, was awesome. He was waiting for us right above the dock when we arrived a few minutes after our designated time (we were a little late because of traffic). We still ended up getting 2 full hours and the weather was perfect. We brought our own wine and a nice charcuterie to enjoy. Jeremy provided some nice sailing music & even let us play our own music when we wanted. Everything was serene. Weather was perfect. I'd definitely recommend them to any and everyone looking to book on the water for any occasion or just because. Cannot wait to book with them again and bring some friends along next time. Looking forward to it for sure. read more

Great service. Fun captain. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Get the 4 hour time slot at a minimum. Possibly 6. Worth every dollar.

We had the best time cruising around for the sunset cruise! The captain was so informative and detailed on the area! Definitely recommend this as an event! read more

Advertising quoted " captain included" in the price. The reality was they wanted 0ver $400 for the captain before we could leave the dock on the day of our cruise. Attempts to get reimbursement resulted in being stonewalled. This is not an operation that should be in business. read more

Had an amazing time on the cruise out to Emerald Bay! We went on the center console boat and it was very stylish, fast, and clean. The captain was super cool and taught us a lot of interesting things about the area. We even had a close encounter with a big pod of dolphins on our way back from Emerald bay. It was the highlight of our charter! 10/10- I definitely recommend BayWatch if you're looking for a fun and memorable thing to do in Newport! read more

While on our vacation in South Lake Tahoe we wanted to do a private boat cruise. We chose Bay Watch boat tours. The opportunity to view the beautiful lake from the water while having the convenience to seek out our path was the way to go. We got to visit Emerald Bay, do a little swimming and cruise along the water. read more

The owner, Cody took us for the ride of our small inadequate lives. Made us feel like a million bucks for a reallllly cheap price. His boat was super luxury while also being a wet and wild time.

We chartered with Captain Jeremy for Father's Day and it was nothing short of glorious! He was preternaturally knowledgeable about the area, homes and navigated seamlessly through the marine traffic. He brought us right to several dolphin pods, my family saw at least several hundred dolphins. Stunning service at a great price. Epic work Jeremy! read more

Jeremy is the best ever. Such a fun time celebrating our friend's birthday we boated out to Emerald Bay where we dove off the boat and swam around and floated in an inflatable floatie thingy. It was all amazing. Highly recommend. Such a fun time. We debated what the best American band is (comment if you have an opinion), ate breakfast burritos we brought on board, and even had some booze to complement the big blue. Such a fun time. If you've got people that you love or want to celebrate, can't think of a better way. read more
