Perfect tour - Captain Greg took us on the best excursion of our trip! Covered the entire San Diego Bay Area; up close to Navy vessels, points of interest, scenic views, etc. He was knowledgeable, funny and friendly-GREAT guide! Don’t miss this fabulous tour! So relaxing and enjoyable. 6 stars out of 5!

Must-see afternoon family outing while you’re here - Such a great afternoon activity. Very happy it was a boat with 6 passengers only. We purposely booked here instead of the larger charters for fear of our family being booked alongside a bachelorette party (because this was obviously a popular choice activity- we saw three separate bridal parties lined up in the marina for another charter) Captain Dave was wonderful. Never felt put out for asking for a video or photo from him. He was very informative and personable without being over-the-top.

Highly recommend for family outing - What a great experience. We booked for two adults and our 13 yo daughter. The small group was perfect (6 passengers plus 1 Capt. Dave :) we just didn’t want to share the boat with a bachelorette party or rowdy crowd. Three hours was the perfect time frame for sight seeing and relaxing. Captain Dave was a great host/sailor.

Great Sail, Great Captain, Great Experience - This was a celebration of my wife's 70th birthday and it could not have been a better time for everyone present, including my wife. Out Captain Dan was a wonderful sailor and guide for all of the sights in San Diego Harbor and a pleasure to sail with. This was truly a great experience.

Great experience!! - What a fabulous day!! We booked the private sailing 3 hour excursion. Captain Chris welcomed onto his beautiful sailboat and we spent 3 glorious hours relaxing while he took us through the Bay and a short way into the Pacific Ocean. He was a complete delight and had excellent information for us if we were interested. My husband took a nap at the front of the boat, my grandkids loved every second of it, and even though I thought 3 hours might be too long for the kids, we had a blast! Highly recommend this company!!

Fun afternoon sailing! - We enjoyed our sail with Captain Bri. She was friendly, capable and showed us a good time. She answered all of our questions about her background, the boat, what we were seeing on the shore, and even explained how she was interpreting wind patterns on the water. The boat was clean and comfortable.

Excellent afternoon sail! - Captain Bree was amazing. She made all of us very comfortable, single-handedly sailed the boat, and was pleasant and positive throughout. We caught some super fun wind outside the harbor then came back inside to see some sights. Highly recommend Captain Bree to all and sail San Diego as well.
