If you can dream it, we can do it. Our special charters are a great way to celebrate a birthday, an anniversary or a promotion. Corporate off-sites, catered events, group charters, even weddings are spectacular aboard our vessel. We also offer the finest, most caring accommodation for burials at sea (scattering of ashes; see link above).

Your charter can be a nature cruise, a whale watching trip, a wine tasting, a catered dinner or a sunset cruise. It can be anything you want it to be!
Our charters are extraordinary because we are excellent hosts; we'll do whatever it takes to make your event shine. See what some of our customers have to say about Sanctuary Cruises:

Off the Beaten Path/Bozeman, Montana~Series of Charters
"Now that our event at the Inn at Spanish Bay is complete, I wanted to officially thank you and your organization for being a wonderful partner to us during our time in Pebble Beach.

Off the Beaten Path measures its success as a company in large part by the relationships that we maintain with the service and activity providers that we rely upon when delivering exceptional travel experiences to our clients. As a funtion of this, it has always been of paramount importance to seek out the best providers and engage in relationships that maintain a watchful eye on the long-term--fostering the trust and friendly realtions that are so often leveraged when managing other peoples' experiences. It feels just wonderful to have created this kind of relationship with your organization.

So, thank you for being our partner during our time in central California. Undoubtedly, our paths will again cross (we would all love this to occur with frequency!) and we look forward to the same gratifying experience when that day comes." Sunny Cook/Manager Provider Relationships

Macrovision Catered Whale Watching Charter
"It was a wonderful day and we couldn't have asked for better weather. Everyone told me that it was better then they ever imagined it would be. They couldn't have asked for anything more perfect.

You and Steph were just the most gracious of hosts. I felt as if I knew you versus just having met you both. It was like we were hanging out with friends. The other two members of your crew were just wonderful as well. The food was WONDERFUL...We recommend this to the rest of the company for any outings. They will have not only an amazing eyeful, but a wonderful set of people to take care of them. AGAIN, kudos to you and Steph for a wonderful day. Something that everyone will always remember and can't wait to do again. It was by far the best group outing we've ever done! I'm sure we'll be back!"
Trudi Bordi/Macrovision

Intel Catered Whale Watching Cruise
"Our group had a great time aboard the Princess of Whales for an afternoon of whale watching and fine dining! The boat was great, the staff were very friendly and helpful, and everyone enjoyed themselves immensely. We also had Sanctuary Cruises prepare dinner for our crew, which was top-notch. The smoked salmon was awesome! I would highly recommend Sanctuary Cruises to anyone looking for a nice time on the water with a friendly crew." Dane Nelson/Intel
