18 July 2026 11:00 + more dates
A champagne brunch cruise with ocean views, jazz, and a buffet
The experience begins with boarding at 10:30 AM before the boat departs at 11 AM for a two-hour journey through Newport Beach’s waters. Guests are treated to a brunch buffet, unlimited champagne and sparkling cider, and live jazz music setting the soundtrack for the ride.
The two-hour cruise includes a freshly prepared brunch buffet with entrées, salads, and desserts, plus free-flowing champagne, mimosas, and sparkling cider. Guests can also enjoy unlimited coffee, hot tea, iced tea, and water while taking in coastal views with live jazz providing the soundtrack.
The cruise welcomes all ages, with the recommended dress code being casual but polished (think khaki pants, collared shirts, dresses, and nice jeans).
Cruising past America’s most expensive ZIP codes
Beyond the food and views, part of the appeal is the area surrounding the cruise route… Newport Beach is known for its luxury waterfront properties, private communities, and some of the highest real estate prices in the country.
Nearby Newport Coast’s ZIP code 92657 has recently ranked among the nation’s priciest ZIP codes, with luxury homes regularly reaching into the multimillion-dollar range. The area’s combination of oceanfront scenery, limited housing inventory, and proximity to SoCal attractions has made it a magnet for high-end real estate.
For visitors, the cruise offers a rare way to experience that world from the water: no mansion tour required or sky-high budget required, just a front-row seat from the deck, champagne in hand.
