Retirement & Career Send-off Boat Charter in Puerto Rico
Toast a well-earned retirement or a big career move with a relaxed private cruise along the San Juan coastline: fine drinks, easy conversation and the open water instead of a banquet hall.
Private, up to 6 guests · 2 hours to half-day options · Scenic coastal cruising · Photos with Captain José included
A Proper Send-off, Not a Sheet Cake in the Break Room
After years of early mornings and long meetings, a retirement deserves more than a card and a sheet cake. Oceania Boat Tours & Charters puts your honoree, colleagues or closest family aboard a private 20-foot deck boat out of Cangrejos Yacht Club in Carolina, five minutes from SJU airport and ten minutes from the Isla Verde hotels, with free secure parking. Captain José, a USCG-licensed Master Captain and local historian, handles the cruising and the stories while your group relaxes under the shaded bimini top, on white marine leather lounge seating, with a glass raised to what comes next.
Built for a Relaxed, Meaningful Toast
- Private charter, never shared with strangers, up to 6 guests
- Calm coastal cruising past the San Juan skyline and reef, not a loud party route
- Marine Bluetooth audio for the honoree's favorite music or a prepared playlist
- Captain José can double as your photographer for group shots and candid moments
- Champagne, wine or a mimosa bar to mark the occasion (just no red liquids on the gray and white)
- Add a charcuterie board or full champagne bar to make it a proper reception afloat
