About Your Trip

Step aboard for a one-of-a-kind private glass bottom boat tour in King Harbor, Redondo Beach—perfect for families, school groups, birthday parties, or just a fun outing with friends. This one-hour private charter is available for up to 19 passengers and offers an easy and unforgettable way to explore the coastal marine life of Southern California.

Built in 1995 and fully inspected each year as a U.S. Coast Guard Inspected Vessel, this boat has been a local favorite for over 20 years. With its unique design, you'll enjoy views from both above and below the waterline. The underwater viewing chamber features expansive 7-foot by 2-foot glass panels, giving you a window into the Pacific without ever getting wet. From colorful fish to curious sea creatures, you never know what you might spot beneath the surface. On the top deck, keep your eyes peeled for California sea lions lounging and playing just feet away.

At the helm is Captain Jake, a U.S. Coast Guard Licensed Captain and lifelong South Bay local. Having worked on and around the water since 2015—and with three kids of his own—Captain Jake makes it his mission to create a family-friendly experience that's both fun and safe. Whether you're a local or a visitor, he’s passionate about sharing the natural beauty and marine life that make King Harbor so special.

All tours are private and operate within the calm waters of the King Harbor breakwall, making this a great choice for guests of all ages. No need to worry about rough seas or long travel times—just sit back, relax, and enjoy an hour of up-close marine viewing and coastal charm.

If you're looking for a laid-back, educational, and entertaining way to enjoy the ocean, this glass bottom boat tour is a can’t-miss Redondo Beach experience.
