Luxury Boat Charters & Tours in Yorktown, VA

SeaEO charters are designed for groups of up to 13 people in the charter party - the charterer plus up to 12 guests - in addition to the captain and any crew. That makes a Yorktown charter a strong option for couples, families and larger groups without moving to a large commercial tour boat.

Your Yorktown booking covers the private use of the selected SeaEO vessel and its listed onboard amenities for the reserved charter time. SeaEO’s Axopar 37 fleet includes features such as a bathroom, Bluetooth audio, enclosed cabin space, sunpads and a small cooler/refrigeration area. Fuel is not included, and captain payment is handled separately under SeaEO’s demise-charter structure. Exact inclusions and add-ons are shown during booking.

No. Fuel is separate from the listed Yorktown charter price. SeaEO tracks fuel used during the trip and discloses typical fuel costs during booking; the final amount varies with charter length, cruising speed, route and the number of longer-distance stops you choose. This structure allows the itinerary to stay flexible rather than limiting the trip to reduce fuel use.

Yes. SeaEO allows alcohol, food, drinks and snacks aboard its Yorktown charters, and the website also lists glass bottles as permitted. Guests are responsible for consuming alcohol safely and following the captain’s directions at all times.

Vaping/e-cigarettes are permitted aboard the boat. Cigarettes and cigars are more restricted because of fire, ash, odor and upholstery concerns; SeaEO generally asks guests to smoke off the boat or only in a captain-approved designated area. Always follow the captain’s instructions for the specific charter.

Cancellations made at least 6 days before the charter receive a full refund; cancellations 2-5 days before receive a 50% refund; and cancellations within 2 days are non-refundable. Optional trip-cancellation insurance may allow cancellation up to 24 hours before departure for a full refund. If SeaEO or the captain determines that weather or other conditions make the trip unsuitable or unsafe, the company may reschedule the booking or provide a refund/credit under the applicable terms. Because policies can change, the terms shown at checkout should be treated as the final policy.

Yes. Cruising the York River is the core of the Yorktown experience. SeaEO’s Yorktown content emphasizes the river’s scenery and history, with views toward Riverwalk Landing, Yorktown Beach and other historic shoreline landmarks. The route can be relaxed sightseeing, a sunset cruise or part of a longer custom day.

Yes, a York River route with views of the George P. Coleman Memorial Bridge can be considered as part of a custom Yorktown itinerary when charter length, weather, tides, water depth, local rules and docking/anchoring conditions allow. SeaEO’s trips are intentionally flexible, so the captain can help decide whether that stop fits naturally into the day.

A York River charter can provide water views of Riverwalk Landing, Yorktown Beach, the Yorktown Victory Monument and the historic shoreline connected to the 1781 Siege of Yorktown.

Yes. SeaEO’s model is built around multi-activity charters, so a Yorktown trip can combine activities such as cruising, swimming, snorkeling, fishing or a sandbar stop rather than forcing your group into one fixed tour. The captain will sequence the day around conditions, travel time and any fishing or protected-area regulations that apply.

Yes. A private sunset cruise is a natural fit for a Yorktown charter and is one of SeaEO’s commonly offered charter styles. Because the trip is private, the captain can shape the route around the best available evening views, weather and water conditions while keeping the pace relaxed for your group.

Yes. Yorktown is one point of Virginia’s Historic Triangle, so a private York River charter pairs naturally with a Colonial Williamsburg or Jamestown itinerary.
