5.00We had a beautiful evening with Captain Adam on San Diego Bay! There were only 2 other passengers on the boat so we had plenty of room to enjoy the ride with chilled white wine and pleasant conversation. Adam did all the sail trimming work while we just enjoyed the scenery. Sunset wasn’t very impressive but the lights of San Diego were beautiful! Definitely a worthwhile excursion!
Sunset fun

5.0072 Degrees in mid January, a perfect sunset cruise. Adam was great and so was his sailing. I would highly recommend this adventure in San Diego Bay. Dolphins, sunset, it was a fantastic way to spend a couple of hours and see some amazing scenery!
5/5 - unforgettable experience!

5.005/5 - unforgettable experience! I ended up being the only guest on this sunset sail, so it felt like a private sailing tour. The views were gorgeous, but halfway through the sail we suddenly got intense fog and visibility dropped a lot. Captain Patrick handled it like a total pro: calm, knowledgeable, and very reassuring. He adjusted the route and still made sure I had an amazing time. I always felt safe and in great hands. If you book this tour, I truly hope you get Captain Patrick. He made the experience exceptional!
Beautiful first day in SA

5.00There were plenty of photo ops but something’s you just gotta experience. Adam was a perfect host/captain. Warm light shines off the water and the city. Sea lions, birds, and more.
