Yacht Charters

Planning a yacht charter in Newport Beach is an easy way to enjoy luxury, relaxation, and coastal views. Whether you're heading out for a sunset cruise, a dolphin-spotting adventure, or a private celebration, packing the right essentials keeps your day smooth. Here are seven must-pack items for your next charter with Newport Coast Marine.

1. Light Layers and Comfortable Clothing

Even in sunny Newport Beach, ocean breezes can get chilly, especially on morning or evening charters. Pack a light jacket, cover-up, or wrap, and wear breathable outfits. Bring non-slip shoes or sandals and leave the heels at home. Need outfit ideas? See what to wear on a Newport Beach yacht charter.

2. Sunscreen and Sun Protection

UV rays reflect off the water. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, and UV-protective sunglasses. For longer charters, a long-sleeve rash guard or cover-up adds protection.

5. Food and Beverages (or Arrange Catering)

You're welcome to bring your own snacks, meals, and drinks. To elevate the day, ask us about custom catering such as champagne service, seafood spreads, or charcuterie boards. One tip: skip red wine on deck, since it stains the teak. Confirm what water and ice are on board when you book.

6. Swimsuit and Towels

Some charters include swimming stops, especially on a Catalina Island day trip or near Crystal Cove. Bring a swimsuit and a dry change of clothes, and ask what towels are provided.
