The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park sits right on San Diego Bay. JADA anchors alongside it and you hear every song of the actual live performance from the deck — your favorite bottle open, a great spread laid out, bay breeze, city skyline behind you. No one inside the stadium has a view like yours.

Pick the boarding point that works best for you. Both get you to the same place — the best seat at the show.
Board JADA directly at the Harbor Island Sheraton marina. Easy parking, Uber-friendly, right on the water. We depart together and sail to our anchor spot alongside the Shell.
Easy parking availableOnce JADA is anchored at the Rady Shell, we ferry you out by dinghy from the adjacent dock by the jet ski rentals near the Coronado Ferry Building. Great if you’re on Coronado or taking the ferry over from downtown.
Scenic Coronado approachExact boarding time, dock slip number, and all logistics are in your booking confirmation.
From the moment you step aboard to the last encore — every detail planned, nothing to worry about.
Step onto JADA at your boarding point. The crew gets you oriented and settled. Stake your spot on deck, pop open whatever you brought, and get comfortable.
JADA departs and we make our way to our anchor position right alongside the Rady Shell. Drinks are flowing. The bay is golden.
We’re in position. Lay out your spread — cheese, charcuterie, whatever you brought aboard. The sun drops over the bay. This is the moment — before the first note even plays.
The show begins. You hear it live — the actual performance, across the water, with the San Diego skyline behind you and Coronado glowing to the south. Refill your glass. Settle in.
Paul Simon typically plays 2 to 2½ hours. We stay anchored through it all. No rushing to the parking lot. No leaving early. You hear every encore.
The show ends. The stadium crowd fights for the exits. You’re still on the water with a nightcap in hand, watching the city lights come up. No rush.
JADA returns to Harbor Island, or we dinghy you back to the adjacent Coronado dock by the jet ski rentals. The lots are clear. What a night.
Think Ravinia in Chicago — where bringing a great bottle and a beautiful spread is half the tradition. Same idea, better setting. Your ticket covers the boat, the crew, the anchor spot, and Paul Simon. You bring the rest.
Both put you at the Paul Simon show on June 9. Only one of them is a great deal.
