Itinerary
We depart from Safe Harbor Marina on Harbor Island, adjacent to the San Diego Airport, and raise sail on the calm waters of San Diego Bay. Get hands-on or sit back and enjoy breathtaking views of iconic attractions.
Enjoy spectacular views as your fun-loving, informative captain shares his knowledge of sailing and San Diego. Look to the skies for pelicans, ospreys, and other marine birds.
Sail among tall ships, mega-yachts, and military vessels as we pass the world famous Maritime Museum of San Diego. Get up close to the US Midway.
The Coronado Bridge sweeps gracefully over San Diego Bay in a long, elegant curve, its pale blue arches glowing against the water and sky like a ribbon of light. Sailing on San Diego Bay is favorable year-round, with steady afternoon winds, mild seas, and protected water.
The sunset over Point Loma is sublime—molten gold and deep crimson light spilling across the water as the San Diego skyline turns on its evening light show.
