Serene sunset sail - San Diego - We thoroughly enjoyed the sunset cruise with Captain Patrick. This was our first time on a sailboat and he explained things well and was friendly and clearly experienced in sailing. Both of us were happy with the experience and of course, it helped that the weather was perfect! Altogether, a wonderful experience and some great memories made. We definitely recommend the two hour sunset sail with Captain Patrick! Just one note about the pre-sail communications - The communications were timely and detailed which was helpful. However, we received one address via the text message and a different address (for the next door parking lot) via the email. We were able to figure it out because we read both of them but someone only using the email sent from Viator would have ended up in the wrong parking lot.

Memorable Experience - Our sunset cruise in San Diego was absolutely perfect, and that was largely thanks to our captain, Aaron. He was extremely knowledgeable about the harbor and its history, sharing interesting facts throughout our trip without missing a beat. The boat was comfortable, the atmosphere was wonderful, and the sunset was breathtaking. Aaron's hospitality made it a truly memorable.

Relaxing Evening with Friends - Booked this last minute when our first sailing reservation was surprisingly canceled due to overlooking. Our Captain, David, had a good sense of humor. Unfortunately, it was cloudy and we didn't get to watch the sunset but it was a relaxing and enjoyable with friends.

p…..u - So went on this nice boat ride with David. As we toured the port and I began to ask questions about the surroundings , he did not seem to know anything. He let us know that it was not his boat and that he was filling in for someone. I then asked to go to the bathroom, because the website said there was a bathroom on board. The bathroom was DISGUISING!!!! It had urine and feces in the toilet. The smell was out of this world. I was so over this trip. Not worth the money. The scenery was beautiful but, I could have stayed in my car and circled the port myself. DO BETTER!
