San Juan Historical Bay Daytime Sailing Tour
Overview
Available languages
2 hours
Mobile ticket
Authentic sailing is culture, having a conversation with a local, with the power of the wind, no engine noise, no crowds, no fake pirates, no stray cats, no crowds, no need to scream . . . we sail sideways, aboard a real racer-cruiser (J30), with a toilet and a cabin, just real life sailing. You'll get to see a different perspective of old San Juan, with complimentary drinks, feeling safe but free, in small groups (no crowds.) Good for any special moment, or turning this moment into an special one. While in contact with nature elements, sometimes you may get surprised by dolphins. There are 6 people maximum per sailboat. Sailboat model: Jboat J30 (racer-cruiser.) It's not luxury yacht or a catamaran. Let's sail with Sail San Juan Bay!

5.00We had the pleasure to Sail with Captain Joe and Carlos. The other couple was a no show so we had the boat to ourselves which made the experience even more special. The weather was beautiful and Joe was very knowledgeable about San Juan’s History. We would recommend this sailing adventure!!

5.00Nice time out in the bay on a small sailboat. If you enjoy getting out on the water, and seeing some places you have only seen from land, this could be for you.
Never get to experience sailing in Puerto Rico.

1.00It stated, to be at meeting point at 3pm. I arrived at meeting point at 3pm with Uber and they left early. Would not refund money for tour I didn’t received, even I had a proof of arrival time from Uber App indicating drop off time 3pm. I finally needed to involve AMEX to help me get refund for tour I didn’t receive. I have used boat tours across Europe and never experienced anything like this.
Fun afternoon
