Next Level Sailing

Sailing cruises on a historic yacht with wildlife watching and private charters.

How it works

Next Level Sailing offers a unique experience aboard the 139-foot yacht, America, where groups can enjoy a four-hour cruise along the California coast. The company's focus is on providing an environmentally conscious way to enjoy marine life, with opportunities to see whales and dolphins up close. The yacht features low sweeping decks for unobstructed views and a deep keel that enhances stability, ensuring a comfortable journey. Refreshments such as snacks and non-alcoholic drinks are available, making it an enjoyable outing for those looking to connect with colleagues in a relaxed setting.

Ideal for corporate outings, the company also provides private charters for various events like brunch cruises, rehearsal dinners, and sunset cruises. These chartered experiences offer a chance to strengthen bonds among team members outside of the traditional work environment. Whether it's spotting sea creatures or hosting a reception on the open water, Next Level Sailing provides an opportunity for teams to engage with each other in a memorable maritime setting.

Our Review

Updated

Our first impression of this team building activity is that it offers a refreshing departure from the conventional office setting, inviting teams to connect in a serene maritime environment. Next Level Sailing's yacht, America, provides an engaging backdrop for fostering camaraderie among colleagues. The four-hour cruise along the California coast not only promises breathtaking views but also an eco-friendly opportunity to observe marine life up close, which can be particularly appealing for teams interested in environmental sustainability.

One thing to keep in mind is that while Boat Charters like these are a good choice for small to medium-sized teams seeking a relaxed and informal setting, they may not be the best fit for very large groups or those requiring structured team-building exercises. The yacht's stability and unobstructed views make it especially suitable for creative teams looking to spark inspiration or new teams aiming to break the ice in a novel setting. However, analytical teams might find the lack of structured activities less aligned with their preferences. Overall, this experience can significantly enhance team dynamics by offering a unique blend of leisure and discovery on the open water.
