Overview

Old Plank Sailing Adventures is a boutique luxury sailing charter and aquatic expedition company, delivering gourmet 5-star experiences on the sparkling waters of Santa Monica Bay and beyond. Founded by Captain & Chef Matthew Mancini—a USCG-licensed master mariner and culinary artist—we’re backed by a tight-knit crew of lifelong ocean lovers who live for the sea. We move with the currents, plan by the tides, and chase the sun across the SoCal Riviera.

Deeply passionate about exceptional food and the profound harmony of the ocean

Committed to sharing the transformative peace that comes from syncing with the rhythms of the waves

Overjoyed to pass on our lifelong love for sailing, gourmet cuisine, and the healing magic of the water—turning every guest into part of the crew (and often lifelong friends)

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Old Plank Adventures: Sail into Deep Tranquility?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
