    I went on a sailing cruise with Jada Charters a couple weeks ago with my work colleagues. We had an awesome time! The Captain and crew were so nice and professional. They accommodated our every request to make sure that we were always well taken care of. They even made sure that we had the perfect sunny weather and wind. Okay, so maybe that was just our good fortune. But in all honestly, I highly recommend booking your next sailing adventure with Jada Charters! You won't be disappointed!

    We sailed 2 days ago for my husband’s 50th birthday with 25 family members, getting together for the first time since the pandemic. All of us had a fabulous time sailing the San Diego Harbor. Carole and her crew were extremely friendly, accommodating, and took fantastic care of our group. They made sure that we were all safe and having a great time. The trip was truly a memorable experience. Highly recommend!

    We had such a great time on JADA with Pacifica Sailing Charters celebrating a great group of young men's college graduation! Captain and the crew took great care of us and owner of the boat, Carole was such a STAR with welcoming us and sharing about the history of the boat. All stars and sails aligned with a perfect day of sailing, thanks to Carole and Pacifica!

    We had a awesome experience on the JADA for my brother’s bachelor party. Once the crew saw that we were ready to get our hands dirty, they let us take part in raising the sails and making adjustments. They were very friendly and taught us what to consider with sailing etiquette and wind behavior. JADA has a pretty interesting history, which Carole presents beautifully, and it was very cool to be on an all wooden original construction that makes all of those nice creak sounds. It was a great introduction to sailing.

    We had the BEST time sailing and being out on the water! I got to celebrate my birthday on the water with my friends and family, the salty crew helped entertain, host, and provide the essentials to ensure we all were safe and living our best lives! Thank you Carole!

    A wonderful experience for a sad occasion. The staff were kind and compassionate to all the guests. Carole provided helpful guidance for making preparations for a memorable couple of hours

    We had a wonderful time on JADA. The entire team was friendly, knowledgeable and helped make our quick harbor cruise enjoyable.

  • 5/5 Lisa H. 3 years ago on Google
    I truly can't thank the Jada crew and Carole enough for the amazing way in which they accommodated us for a family member's burial at sea. Carole kindly went out of her way to graciously arrange all of the details and logistics during a very difficult time. Her professionalism and organization made the experience so smooth and relieved us of so much stress. The day was absolutely perfect and so meaningful to all of us.

  • 5/5 Joan M. 1 year ago on Google
    This experience exceeded our expectations. Thank you to Carole and the Captain and crew of JADA. Our brother-in-law would have approved (and we felt he would have loved to be there in person).

  • 5/5 Richard B. 1 year ago on Google
    The crew of Jada were an amazing resource during our voyage. They made sure our difficult and trying experience was met with dignity, grace, and compassion. They also made it memorable and enjoyable. Carole was extremely helpful in planning, understanding the requirements, and giving us suggestions to make the trip more memorable. She was always available and responsive. I highly recommend Jada and the Jada crew for any of your sailing needs. In particular, for burial or bereavement trips, you couldn't pick a better group.

    Our team had such a great afternoon with Captain Gene and his top-notch crew. We planned this day as a team outing and it was an incredibly unique San Diego experience. This was a fun and engaging activity where we were able to connect and have a memorable experience together. If you are looking for a different experience for a team outing, I would absolutely recommend chartering JADA.

  • 5/5 Terry A. 6 months ago on Google
    Our family had such a special time scattering my mom’s ashes along the coast. Carole was so helpful and patient with all the details, providing resources, and working with us on the times during a busy weekend. The captain and crew were all so helpful, serving us and preparing us for the actual scattering while also giving us the space and respect for our own simple, spiritual, intimate, unique ceremony. It was absolutely perfect for my mom, and she would have just loved it! I would highly recommend Carole and Burials at Sea San Diego! Thank you all!

  • 5/5 Matty O. 6 months ago on Google
    Thank you to Sail JADA Charters and its crew for our great experience spreading ashes at sea. The boat is a beauty, the views off the San Diego coast are amazing at sunset, and the sailing was so peaceful. It became a very special way to say goodbye and achieve some closure. Thanks again, five stars for sure.

  • 5/5 Denise G. 6 months ago on Google
    JADA was fantastic! Owner Carole made planning easy, and Capt. Gene and crew (Jensen and Travis) made our group's sailing experience perfect by being so professional and friendly. It was a fun day and a great add-on to our business meeting.

  • 5/5 Kathryn W. 9 months ago on Google
    What an amazing day! We celebrated a few birthdays and everyone in attendance had a wonderful time. The crew was so kind and helpful! They provided all the information we needed prior to sailing and communicated often. Overall a fabulous experience. HIGHLY recommend!

  • 5/5 Ann W. 11 months ago on Google
    Just a wonderful day sailing on Jada charters! The crew is fantastic while sailing this beautiful boat which has an amazing history. We had the best views in San Diego while we shared food and music! This is a perfect place to celebrate any occasion! I would book this for a party in a second!

  • 5/5 Lori U. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing day spent sailing on Jada a beautiful boat built in 1938as told by the owner Carol,the crew was also very courteous and helpful.I would highly recommend for any occasion,its never a bad day in Americas Finest City!

  • 5/5 Doranne G. 10 years ago on Google
    I have been on this beautifully restored boat for a number of sails, both private and public, and have always had a great time; that’s saying a lot for someone who was never crazy about sailing! But Carole, and her crew have made a convert of me. They are the perfect hosts for a smooth, safe sail around the harbor, all the while serving yummy refreshments, sharing their knowledge of San Diego Bay and landmarks, and making us all feel so at home. I highly recommend this for a wonderful sailing experience.

  • 5/5 Mary Y. 10 years ago on Google
    Had a fabulous time on the Jada celebrating my 60th birthday with a costumed Pirate Party! It turned out to be a beautiful day for sailing, and many of my 24 swashbuckling guests all said it was the most fun birthday party they ever attended! The captain and crew were very accommodating in every way, from giving us the safety talk, to serving refreshments, to making sure everyone was safe on board while we were having fun sailing. I couldn't have wished for a better way to celebrate this milestone birthday, proving that, at any age, we're all still kids at heart! It was just the perfect day in every way!

  • 5/5 Kathleen D. 9 years ago on Google
    What an awesome ride! Everyone was so friendly and the view was great! It was a little bit of energy to navigate to the back of the hotel, but there is tons of parking and really pretty easy to find your way. It is definitely worth it! The marina was so pretty and the boat was great.

  • 5/5 Jon T. 10 years ago on Google
    Took my corporate team out for a sail on the Jada and I can't say enough good about it! The crew is wonderful. The boat is beautiful and wonderfully maintained. So many things to see while sailing San Diego harbor. The crew was patient with some members of my group straggling in a half hour late and still took us on the full cruise. No one's hands were ever empty of a drink or of snacks as the smiling crew circulated the entire cruise making sure everyone was taken care of. They could easily have slacked off on our larger-than-average group, but they absolutely made certain the entire team had a great time. Highest recommendation. Since I originally wrote this, we took another sail with my group and had an even better experience. Beyond the excellent crew and beautiful ship, we got to see Navy SEALs practicing helicopter jumps into the bay, sailed under the Coronado Bridge, and dozens of other things. Our group all returned with happy faces!

    If you want to have an unbelievable experience then sail The Jada, there is nothing like it. I have sailed all different times of the year and it is always a fantastic experience. Whether you are a local who wants to have a wonderful, relaxing experience or have family and friends from out of town where you want to show off San Diego, sailing the Jada is a winner!!!

  • 5/5 Oscar A. 9 years ago on Google
    Went on JADA a few months ago and it was AMAZING. If you like to the ocean and boats this is a must in San Diego. The ship provides great view of downtown and the bay. Being that JADA is the only classic wooden yacht available for charter in San Diego, you won't find anything like it.

  • 5/5 Diane W. 3 years ago on Google
    THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for a FANTASTIC day on the bay! Carole... You run a tight ship, have great crew, and are doing a really good job with COVID-19 distancing while onboard. I feel very safe being outdoors, and yet I really do appreciated the new assigned seating protocol, to keep our family groups separated by six feet. Thaaanks. This was my 4th time onboard JADA, and find a day of sailing with you all to be such a fun & relaxing change of pace. We all need a 'great escape' from the our problems ashore... and JADA is mine! The HAPPY DAYS OF SUMMER ARE HERE... and I look forward to seeing you all again soon. BON VOYAGE!

  • 5/5 Sophia P. 3 years ago on Google
    I talked to other charter companies before making the decision who to choose for my wife's sea burial -scattering of her ashes on San Diego Bay. I chose Sail JADA Charters and spoke with Carole, she was very helpful and knowledgeable, she explained all the process, made recommendations and answer all my questions. The day of the Sea Burial for my wife Sophia was on July 11, 2020 and all the family and close friends were very pleased with the outcome of the gathering and the sea burial funeral. I highly recommend Sail Jada Charters; Carole and her staff are very nice people, very helful thru out the entire event. Carole helped with arrangement of photos and flower decorations and took photos. Thank you Carole for making it possible and easier for the family during this time of grief! God Bless.

    The sail Jada was such a wonderful experience, we toured the beautiful San Diego harbor with excellent service and hospitality as well as history of the bay and beautiful scenery, our 3 children loved the 3 hour tour! Thank you Sail Jada highly we highly recommend your charter

  • 5/5 Jack M. 6 years ago on Google
    Definitely a must do in San Diego! Top Notch. I wouldn't think twice about bringing family and friends to enjoy a day like this again and again. Carole and her crew were absolutely wonderful, she even had a naturist to show us all there was to see and enjoy !! Very personable. She was eager to get us the best whale watching experience possible. She continued to make sure we were comfortable and fed as we sailed the ocean. The Jada is a beautiful historical vessel.Thank you very much for the great trip, you guys did an amazing job, we enjoyed the tour very much! highly recommend!!

  • 5/5 Betsy V. 2 years ago on Google
    We had a company team building on Jada last weekend. I was looking for an event that would challenge people a little but also be a ton of fun. Jada and the crew delivered all of that and more. We divided into teams and actually sailed the boat (with guidance from the attentive and funny crew)! It was such a thrill for everyone. After working the boat, we relaxed with wine and appetizers as we toured San Diego Harbor. I highly recommend this lively and effective team event

    Beautiful boat, beautiful weather, great crew.

  • 5/5 Rakhi B. 3 years ago on Google
    I did my bachelorette party, my husband's 40th, and my dad's burial service on this charter. I keep coming back because it is so fun and professional. Carole and the staff really take care of you on the boat. They have plenty of snacks, unlimited drinks (wine and beer too), and blankets to keep you warm. If you want to experience San Diego views, the San Diego way, I would recommend this charter.

  • 5/5 AnnaLisa F. 2 years ago on Google
    Dealing with the loss of a loved one is not easy and dealing with it during COVID has been a nightmare. However, the shining spot in it all was dealing with Carole and her crew at JADA. They were companionate, considerate and very informative. Mom wanted her ashes scattered at sea out of San Diego, everyone attending the service had to travel from out of town/state. Carole provided clear instructions for all things needed from flowers to hotel options. When we met the Crew at the boat they were informative of what to expect during our cruise and scattering. The crew was friendly, helpful and they let us say our last goodbyes without rushing. Saying goodbye is never easy, but they made it a memorable experience that left us all smiling. A big THANK YOU to JADA - Charters for making a sad occasion a happy moment celebrating the life of mom.

  • 5/5 Eric G. 3 years ago on Google
    Carole and Sail Jada are the absolute best! We chartered Jada for a sunset sail for a group of 20 the night before our wedding. The boat is beautiful, the crew are kind and professional, and the appetizers are delicious. Carole went above and beyond, taking amazing pictures of our group and making sure everyone felt comfortable and was having fun. There's something special about sailing on a classic yacht like Jada, I highly recommend you treat yourself and your group to a sail on the finest boat in San Diego.

  • 5/5 Becky S. 5 years ago on Google
    My family had such a wonderful, peaceful, and memorable experience spreading my father's ashes thanks to the kind and friendly staff. Carole was amazing coordinating with my mom who was having a bit of a tough time organizing the service. She gave my mom all the needed information for our guests and spoke with her several times before hand to make sure everything went smoothly. The crew was there to help and were so incredibly friendly. They even had a bluetooth speaker for us to use to play music and served us while aboard. Carole even recommended some nice local dinner spots as we were not local. Overall they were extremely accommodating and things could not have gone better to honor my fathers wishes. When I thanked carole for her kindness she told me that weddings and funerals are two ceremonies that people remember for years to come so it was important to her to make sure that our experience was something to remember. I was very touched to say the least.
