Hornblower Cruises & Events - South Location

Cruise on board John Wayne's yacht. Fundraiser for Save the Green Abalone. Super fun to see the memorabilia and hear the stories. Successful event for the nonprofit.

Great place! We had our company party here. Great food and service! The best dinner cruise!!

Amazing. Took my grandmother here for her 82nd birthday and she had a wonderful time! She since is an orange county native, she knew lots of history with the house and which celebs live where! Stairs are a tad bit steep, even the ones getting on the boat. If you have someone that can't climb stairs well I suggest you request to sit on the lower levels where buffet is also served on. Staff was wonderful and so helpful and attentive! Jazz music was playing the entire 2 hour cruise! It was so relaxing and played very beautifully. The gentleman playing was an independent musician so tips definitely are welcome. He was really appreciative of any and all! Upper deck is QUITE THE SIGHT! I would describe it as a sky deck/club with tons of lounge seating. We went during the day so none of the twinkle light were on at the time but the upper level has little lights and just an awesome layout for socializing etc. Many people on board were celebrating special occasions and dressed semi casual dressy. The night cruise is different from brunch cruise fyi. Brunch food is delicious, mixed drinks are delicious and so are dessert, fruit etc. Nothing to complain about with the food, tons of it and endless options. Multiple options for any and everyone, no matter age, preferences etc. If you get MOTION SICKNESS do not worry!! I am the same way and didn't get sick at all. When the boat departs and ports you do feel that but it's all actually REALLY SMOOTH. Above all else a great experience! Definitely recommend 100 times over!

Surprisingly good brunch. Lots of choices. Plus 1 for the extra thick delicious bacon. Great views along the way. Friendly and helpful crew. Overall, a very pleasant experience.
