There’s plenty of room to explore and everyone gets a chance at the wheel if they feel adventurous.
Sailing San Diego.com features a classic restored 1973 Ranger 37 named Masquerade. This 37′ yacht was known as “The Rocket” back in her day due to her lightening speed and innovative hull design. Much heavier than traditional boats today, Masquerade will provide a steady, smooth sail no matter what the conditions. While sailing on San Diego bay, enjoy breathtaking views of downtown, the naval base, the latest aircraft carriers, destroyers, and submarines.
If you want to leave the harbor, you can head past the tip of Point Loma toward the Coronado Islands . View the massive kelp beds, which lie due south of the Point Loma lighthouse. Enjoy sailing year-round here, although in the winter and spring months, you’ll want to bring a jacket or sweater.
For the most elegant sailing experience, whether it’s a yacht charter or corporate event or special occasion, visit Sailing San Diego Bay.com

If you love Dolphins, then sailing san diego bay.com has the dolphin adventure for you. Imagine weather in upper 70′s to low 80′s on any particular sunny San Diego afternoon. San Diego’s weather is hard to beat anytime of year.
Leave the zoos and aquariums behind, and see dolphins in their natural habitat! On our daily dolphin adventure tour from San Diego Bay, you’ll have a chance to see whales, dolphins, sea lions and birds of all kinds in their natural environment. Cruise alongside them from the comfort of a stable sailboat, and even take the helm yourself for a dolphin experience you will never forget!
You will come across a pod of dolphins numbering in the hundreds. The babies will be leaping and jumping out of the water and just having a worry free afternoon of fun. Even the larger adult Dolphins will occasionally launch sky ward, landing with a huge splash on the horizon.
As we sail through the pods cruising area, several younger dolphins swim alongside the boat Cris-crossing the bow and staying just ahead of us as to not hit. You’ll be in shear amazement as they continued to play with us, diving and surfacing only inches out arms length as if they were saying “Can’t Catch Me”… It truly will be a day your family will not soon forget.
Tap on the hull of the boat, and within seconds, more young Dolphins will appear until we have around a dozen or so swimming on either side of the boat. As soon as they appear, they will swim in and out of our path, only to shoot along side us underwater looking up at us with those trusting, playful eyes.

Sailing with Sea Lions

Sea lions are found in staggering numbers all over san diego. You can find them sunning on the buoys and along the docks all around san diego bay.
Leave the zoos and aquariums behind, and see Seals and Sea Lions in their natural habitat! On our daily Seal and Sea Lion adventure tour from San Diego Bay, you’ll have a chance to see whales, dolphins, sea lions and birds of all kinds in their natural environment. Cruise alongside them from the comfort of a stable sailboat, and even take the helm yourself for a Seal and Sea Lions experience you will never forget!
The sea lions are protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act, but we can get within 10′ feet or so as we sail past the crowded buoys were they all congregate. The sea lions are extremely social, and don’t seem to mind a bit as we sail past them. Better have your camera ready, cause we get really close..
California sea lions are just one of many several marine mammals we will see while sailing on san diego bay. Sea lions are characterized by the presence of external ear (pinnae or flaps) and long front flippers. This is one easy way to distinguish between sea lions and seals, since seals do not have ear flaps. They tend to look quite similar to a doberman that has just taken a bath.
The sea lions also communicate on land, not in the water! Sea lions can be heard barking on the bait docks and buoys as they play and jump around the boat.
