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.

My wife and I had an amazing time on the San Diego Bay aboard The Intrigue this summer. Scott and Melissa are the owners and most gracious and engaging hosts. It's a beautiful spacious vessel with all the luxurious accommodations of a 5 star hotel. The unique views of the city and the Coronado Bridge were spectacular! I've been whale watching, fishing, and sight seeing with Captain Scott and Melissa several times over the last 10 years. They are my first choice when looking for an ocean adventure. Highly recommend!! @intrigueluxury @condor.sportfishing

Fantastic day on the boat. Scott puts you on fish, Melissa is a top notch host, and Miguel ensures you are setup with the right gear to catch fish. Food was excellent and custom made to order. Boat was in excellent shape and the staff exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended.

This Charter provides such an amazing trip around the San Diego Bay-views you just can’t get anywhere else. Scott and Melissa are a great captain and hostess team, making the experience warm and unforgettable. I highly recommend a day trip with friends or a romantic subset cruise. Can’t go wrong!
