Planning the perfect boat rental near Scottsdale shouldn’t require a spreadsheet, a caravan, and three Ubers. That’s why at Seas the Day AZ, we created the ultimate door-to-dock yacht experience: a seamless, elevated day on Lake Pleasant with round-trip transportation and your own private Destination Yacht.

Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, a bachelorette weekend, or just looking to live your best Arizona lake life, this is how to do it—no logistics stress, no parking hassles, and no captain license required.


Why Door-to-Dock Is a Game Changer

1. Pickup From Your Scottsdale or Phoenix Airbnb or Hotel

We offer private round-trip transport via a:

  • 20-passenger party bus (perfect for big groups or celebrations)

  • 11-passenger Sprinter van (ideal for smaller groups or couples trips)

No need to coordinate carpooling or navigate the Lake Pleasant marina parking on a Saturday. We’ll pick you up, keep your group together, and make it a party before the party even starts.

2. No Waiting in Line at the Dock

Your yacht is ready when you arrive—gassed up, fully stocked, and waiting for you and your crew. We do all the prep so your day starts the moment your foot hits the dock.

3. Captain + Crew Included

Every Destination Yacht rental comes with a professional, licensed captain who knows Lake Pleasant like the back of their hand. Want to anchor in a quiet cove or cruise through the main channel? Just say the word.
