The Paradiso team, especially Kathi and Chacha, did an amazing job helping us plan and coordinate our event. Everything went exactly as described, with no unexpected surprises, which made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. The catering was fantastic as well. Chef Tom made it very easy to coordinate the menu, and having Chef Teddy with us during the event gave everyone added confidence that everything and everyone would be satisfied. The food and service were both excellent. On the day of the event, Captain Noah and Captain Joe did a tremendous job ensuring that we stayed on schedule while keeping everyone safe and comfortable throughout the entire trip. Their professionalism and attention to detail really made a difference. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The entire Paradiso team went above and beyond to make our event enjoyable, seamless, and memorable. We would highly recommend Paradiso Yacht Charters to anyone looking to plan a special event on the water! A special thank you to Captain Noah for making the ceremony especially meaningful. He took the time to get to know the departed and incorporated thoughtful personal touches that made the experience even more heartfelt and memorable. His compassion, attention to detail, and genuine care truly helped make the ceremony a beautiful tribute. Sincerely, Norman P. Goco

An Absolutely Incredible Experience!…read more We had the most amazing time with Newport Coastal Adventure! Captain Dave and Sarah were absolutely wonderful--friendly, welcoming, incredibly knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. They got us out to a pod of dolphins so quickly and efficiently, and it was absolutely breathtaking! Then, thanks to their years of experience and expertise, they managed to find not just one, but THREE whales in such a short amount of time! It was truly an unforgettable experience. I would HIGHLY recommend Newport Coastal Adventure to anyone looking for a unique and exciting adventure on the water. It was well worth the money and so much more personal than being on one of the large, crowded whale-watching boats. The smaller group made the entire experience feel intimate, comfortable, and special. This is such a fun adventure for the whole family, and Captain Dave and Sarah made the experience even better with their professionalism, and wonderful personalities. Five stars all the way! We will definitely be back!

We did the 7:30-9pm time slot and it was perfect, we boarded as the sun was finally setting and were able to cruise around as the night was taking over. Nico was knowledgeable about the area and should us some points of interest. There is a sushi restaurant and a place where you can order burgers and other food right next to where you board the tiki. It can get quite busy to make sure you get there with plenty of time to spare if you plan on ordering food to take out on the water with you. Sodas, ice, and some water bottles are provided for you, but make sure you have a good playlist of music ready so you can connect to their bluetooth speaker.

Most other duffy boats have a…read moremaximum of 12 people and we had a bigger team than that so we searched for a larger option and stumbled upon the Paddle Pub that fits a maximum of 16 passengers. The 90 minute Private Brew Boat ($590) which includes a captain and a deckhand, bluetooth speaker on the boat for you to play your jams, and you can bring your own brews, limited to closed canned beverages. Good times! They have a parking garage, no validation offered, but the majority of us just lyfted/ubered down for safety. Prior to the event, we were provided the waiver links to share with our team. Everyone had a change to review the waivers and sign prior. On the day of the event, they ask that everyone arrived 15 minute early, and they will be checking IDs to confirm the names of the waivers signed. We had Lily as the deckhand who was helping us for the day. After we were all checked in, we were lead into their docks and boarded the board, where we met Captain Joe. Captain Joe started off with a safety speech, and from there we were ready to party. Keep the boat fairly balanced, don't all run to one side, not too many people at the front all at once, the front is on the opposite end as the Captain. There were 10 pedaling seats and an area in the front. There was one broken pedal. This boat has a motor so the pedaling is optional but it's for funsies. One of the pedal seats were broken and not in operations. Also these bike like seats were not very comfortable. After the first hour folks got off and stood around, but they were over-it with the bike chairs. Good for groups of 12-16, but if we had a smaller group I would have prefered the standard size duffy boats. It was hard to mingle since you were essentially stuck in the seat and spread pretty far out from everyone. Still a fun time, but I just had better. Also remember to Tip. They have their venmo information up, or afterwards they send you an email asking you how your experience went, and there is an option to tip after that fact if you were unable to on the day of the event.

Highly recommend!

The crew was awesome, especially the captain and assistants to the captain. One of the highlights was the captain let my 8, 6, and 3 year-old in the bridge where the ship is steered/controlled, and the captain let my boys onto the "captain's chair" and to actually steer the big 3-story boat/yacht...of course with his hand on the wheel too! But my boys thought that was the coolest and funnest thing, and it was a memory and experience that just made all the other parts so much more fun and awesome! Great boat, crew/staff, and CAPTAIN who I give all 5 stars, easily. Thank you for a great experience!!

The cruise itself is a great deal (they also have Groupons!) because it includes unlimited mimosas, breakfast, and some nice photo spots. Was pleasantly surprised by the food variety and quality! I think the service at the tritip station could be a little more energetic, or we were just so used to the energy of Nicky and the photographer, that it seemed a little off and not as welcoming. My favorite items were the petit four cakes, tritip + horseradish, and chicken tenders! A lot of people in the group loved the smoked salmon bagels. Our drinks were always topped off and Nicky was always around in case we had any questions or needed something else. Would go on another city cruise!
