San Diego's first ever Family Sailing Tours
Overview
We are based in San Diego and we are designed for families. Our whole mission is to bring families closer together. We want to put smiles on everyone’s faces; parents, children, and grandparents alike.
Our vessel, the Sea Monkey, is a 35 foot yacht. On board you will have a designated captain , at your service, making sure you have a safe and memorable sail.
You will have 2 options for your sail.
Head to Coronado Bridge:
In this option, we will sail along the US Midway, see landmarks like the Kissing statue, the Rady Shell, seaport village, view Coronado island and we will go under the Coronado bridge.
Go see the Seals:
This option is best in the morning when the winds are calmer. Here we will be sailing for around an hour there, circle the seals a few times, and head back. In some rare scenarios, you might view a dolphin or two.
