My first trip on the Intrigue was on August 12,2022. The husband and wife owner operators, Scott and Melissa provide a top notch experience. Shoving off from the dock Melissa made hot muffins and a healthy quiche breakfast. Through the day snacks and a fresh panini lunch are served. The boat is spotless with a comfortable salon and sufficient seating.
The bite was slow but captain Scott hunted all day and he found a couple hook ups. Deckhand Miguel is very helpful and stays with everyone hooked up to make sure their fish is landed. If you are looking to get away from the overbooked cattle boats and combat fishing at the stern this is the outfit you want to check out. I am sold and will be a regular. They treat you like you should be treated when you are paying for a first class fishing experience.

What an adventure! Captain Scott, Melissa, and deckhand Miguel made our voyage unforgettable. The boat is beautiful and there’s ample room to fish and/or enjoy the ride. Scott found numerous fish pods, and the yellowtail were ravenous! They put up a pretty good fight for a novice fisherman like me. Melissa made scrumptious breakfast and lunch, and we even enjoyed some wine on our way back in to port. Miguel was patient and informative with his fishing technique instructions. The Captain and crew certainly made the entire experience top tier! We spent two separate days aboard The Intrigue, and I believe I’m completely spoiled! Any other charter will have a tough time measuring up! I highly recommend The Intrigue for your fishing or Harbor Cruise adventure!!

Good fishing, great crew. The intrigue is a comfortable ride and the crew is very knowledgeable and helpful. Good for first timers and veteran anglers alike. A very different experience from the normal crowded charter boats.

What a great fishing experience I had on the Intrigue. The experience is definitely a step up from all others available in this area. The staff is very friendly and the limited load is the only way to go fishing. I would highly recommend this to anybody who is looking for a premium experience with out of the normal goings-on on the regular sport boats.

Enjoyed our trip on the Intrigue! It was so cool to see the dolphins right up next to the yacht swimming and jumping and playing!!!! This was such a fun experience. We had fun fishing and enjoying the beautiful scenery and relaxing in the sun. Intrigue did an amazing job taking care of us with food and drinks and gave us a truly unique experience. I highly recommend booking with them. They go out of their way to make your trip fun and memorable. The captain has years of fishing experience and was awesome showing us how to fish for tuna. It was cool watching my husband reel one in. We are looking forward to our next visit with them!!!!

Such a beautiful boat! If you’re looking for something a step above your usual fishing charters this is it! Great food, clean and well kept. Make no mistake though, this is a serious fishing machine and Captain Scott was incredibly personable and knowledgeable. We had a great time on our charter and I couldn’t recommend it more! Definitely a different experience than fishing the usual boats out of San Diego, food alone was top notch, but not fighting with 10 guys piled up in the corner was worth the extra cost alone. Can’t wait to do it again!

Intrigue Luxury Charters has earned my highest recommendation. Every aspect of our private sunset cruise was impeccable as my husband and I enjoyed a picture-perfect November evening aboard Scott and Melissa’s pristine and comfortable boat. We toured San Diego bay and were greeted by dolphins and sea lions while we watched a spectacular sunset over Coronado along with the slow illumination of the city lights at dusk. Equally enjoyable to cruising around the bay was dropping the anchor for a bit so passengers could enjoy fishing (success!) and paddle boarding or relaxing in one of the four different seating areas of the boat, each with ample space and unique views. We can’t wait to book a future event with Intrigue! Between fishing, surfing, sunset cruising, and holiday outings, we’ll definitely be returning.
