Total 10/10 experience with London Boat Rental in Long Beach today! The staff was incredibly…read morewelcoming shoutout to the lady at the front and the guy on the docks for making everything so easy. The Duffy boat is a dream. It's super easy to drive, and you can basically turn it into your own private floating lounge. We brought our own champagne and food, and the Bluetooth speakers were loud and clear. They even have cute captain hats for the group! My only regret: Not booking a longer slot. One hour flew by because it was so relaxing. If you're on the fence, go for the 2-hour booking it's the best way to enjoy the LBC water!

I booked a boat ride in advance, but they canceled the trip on their end…read more While I understand that cancellations can happen (weather, maintenance, etc.), the real issue was what happened after. Getting a refund has been difficult. I've made many attempts to get a hold of someone at the business and via email. No one picks up the phone and I've not received a reply to my email. When a company cancels a service, issuing a prompt refund should be straightforward. Unfortunately, that isn't the case here, and it's created unnecessary stress. I would recommend being cautious when booking and confirming their refund policy ahead of time. Hopefully they improve their customer service and how they handle cancellations in the future.

Captain Sebastian was super friendly and a fantastic communicator, making sure we had all the information we needed to make it to the launch ramp on time (directions, parking, etc.). We got lucky and caught a SpaceX launch from the boat, which was surreal to see. We opted for the V-day package which included flowers, chocolates, and balloons and really added to the ambience. Overall it was a magical night, and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique date night.

Rented a boat and took it out for a couple hours to see the holiday lights and enjoy some friend time on the water. Brought our snacks and drinks and navigated out to the canals of Naples. Beautiful this time of year with all the lights and magical holiday vibes. One thing I would say the rental price does not include a service charge of 15% so your total will be 15% more than you expected. I'm sure they note it somewhere along the way in the paperwork but I missed it and asked later when I saw the charge which they cleared up right away. The map is helpful as you may lose reception out on the water. Low tide gives you a more fun experience than high tide as you can't go under some of the bridges if the tide is too high. Check your tide chart before booking or ask them. Nigel's restaurant there seems really fun too crazy use of a space that was just a sidewalk a few years ago. Definitely a great spot to take off from and lots of restaurant options near the dock.

The pink ones are $350 for two hours, but we went with the blue one for $250. Pretty reasonably priced if you go with about 10 people, which fit comfortably. The table on our duffy was a bit wobbly and the motor was pretty slow. Full throttle was about 3 miles an hour. At least we felt safe driving it around Naples. We brought plenty of snacks and drinks. The Bluetooth connection worked fine but the speakers were a little blown. Despite the condition of the duffy, we still had a blast. The staff was very nice checking us in, getting us started and parking the duffy. I'd totally do this again!

Fast forward...I now have sealegs (which you don't need) so I booked a gondola to see the Naples Christmas lights to get a different view. The weekend before, friends and I walked the canal after the Belmont Shore Christmas Parade, so you can imagine the crowds of people going to see the Naples lights. The gondola is a much better way to see the lights. Booking online was simple. I received a confirmation email and in the email was what to expect. If you bring beverages, they provide a cooler/ice bucket with ice and cups. Connor was our gondolier and he was an absolute champ. He paddled through the canal so quickly that we had more time left on our cruise, so he took us out to the bay which was deserted, but peaceful. We had such a great time thanks to Connor! I highly recommend Gondola Getaway. Their staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. It's well worth the $267.50 (pre tip).

The crew was so friendly and attentive, especially to us newbies. They checked on everyone, made sure we felt safe, and never once made anyone feel inexperienced. That matters when it's your first open water dives. After dive two, they had HOT chicken soup waiting for us and it was actually good. Not just "boat food" good -- legit comforting after being in the water. There were also plenty of snacks between all three dives, which we definitely appreciated. Now that we're certified, we'll absolutely be back to dive Catalina with them again. Even the more experienced divers on board were welcoming and kind. It honestly felt like one big happy dive family. Can't wait to get back out there
