What happens on the day
Get ready to unleash your inner sailor!
Your journey begins in Sausalito, where you'll step aboard a gorgeous sailboat and get ready to hit the waters. With an expert captain leading the way, you’ll learn how to steer the boat and help handle the lines—if you’re up for it! If you’d rather, you’re also welcome to sit back, relax, and watch the gorgeous views go by.
Experience the magic of sailing past Sausalito’s famous floating homes, the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, and the breathtaking San Francisco waterfront. If you’re lucky, you may even spot a seal, sea lion, dolphin, or the occasional whale gliding through the bay.
