You can't pass this up!! - What a great time! We have never been sailing before. Captain Phillip has had over 50 years of sailing experience. The sail boat is a beautiful sailing vessel from the early 1900's. Captain Phillip is extremely knowledgeable about sailing and San Diego. He puts you at ease on a wonderful 2 1/2 hour jaunt of the harbor ending with a spectacular sunset, and if you are lucky the sail ends bathed in moonlight. I highly recommend this sunset cruise. Remember this is in a sailing craft not a noisy motorized huge boat. It's a once in a lifetime experience for all.

Wonderful! - Captain Phillip was great! We went on a sail last year, but they just put the sails up and motored. Cptn Phillip sailed almost the entire time and it was lovely and relaxing. I would highly recommend!

Ask for Captain Philip! - My daughter and I did this together and loved it. There were only two other guests on the boat and that atmosphere made for a more enjoyable time. Captain Philip was the star of the show! He knows his stuff and was generous with the wine! What a chill experience and one that I would recommend for anyone who goes to San Diego. This is a 5-star experience!

Great evening! - Wonderful trip! You can sail on all the fancy fiberglass boats you want, but they won't be as cool as this. Captain Phil has obviously put his heart and soul into into restoring the Liberty, and it shows. It's a classic-and so is he - totally knowledgable and happy to answer any questions about the boat and the surroundings. Enjoy a nice glass of wine and relax!
