Joe Rogan was spotted enjoying family time in the Mediterranean Sea with his wife and kids on July 12, 2025. According to exclusive photos obtained by Daily Mail, Rogan and his family are cruising the coast of Venice on the OKTO, a luxury charter yacht that costs roughly $561,000 to $642,000 for a week. Rogan was seen at the rear of the bridge deck and then relaxing on leather seats with his wife, Jessica Ditzel.

Rogan was seen wearing a white T-shirt with a photo of the Rumble in the Jungle fight between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman on October 30, 1974. His wife wore a brown bikini top with a matching skirt. His two daughters, Lola and Rosy, were also seen aboard the yacht. Ditzel's daughter, Kayja Rose, was not seen with them on the trip.

The UFC commentator has always kept his family away from the tabloids. Seeing them together, vacationing is quite a surprise to many of the Rogan fans. Keep reading to learn more about the luxury yacht and Joe Rogan's criticism of President Trump's actions.


More details about the OKTO luxury yacht, on which Joe Rogan was seen

Joe Rogan booked the OKTO, which is a luxury charter yacht that is 218 feet long. The vessel is a 2014-vintage yacht that roughly costs around $600,000 to charter for a week. Some of the luxury amenities available on the yacht include an infinity pool on the main deck, a helipad, a cinema, a gym, a jacuzzi, and five staterooms for 10 guests.


What did Joe Rogan say about President Donald Trump?

Joe Rogan's family vacation comes after he has publicly spoken out against President Donald Trump's decision to bomb Iran's nuclear enrichment facilities. He highlighted the fact that the president's words did not match what he said during his campaigns, which was to keep the country out of any new wars.

The podcaster also voiced his thoughts against Trump's mass deportation immigration policy. However, according to reports, the UFC commentator was dining with the President in June, just three days before he slammed the ICE raids on his podcast.

This is what Rogan had to say:

"There's two things that are insane. One is the targeting of migrant workers. Not cartel members, not gang members, not drug dealers. Just construction workers. Showing up in construction sites, raiding them. Gardeners. Like, really?"

One of the most recent criticisms Joe had of Trump's administration is directed at the fact that they have failed to release Epstein's "client list". He called it a "cover-up," after the FBI and Department of Justice said that Epstein did not blackmail any influential people, nor did he keep a list of associates.


In another note, Rogan may not be back in time for the UFC 318 at the New Orleans Arena, which is scheduled on July 19, 2025. However, the podcaster has good reason for this. They will be celebrating his wife's 50th birthday on July 18, which is just a day before the UFC match.
