The captain was so nice and took us on a perfect cruise of the downtown bay for sunset. He pointed out some cool San Diego monuments but also sat back and let us listen to music and relax. It was amazing, definitely recommend!!!

Such a good time. We got to driver the boat and adjust the sails as much as we won’t, but could also just relax on the fri t of the boat whenever. Captain even asked if we would like to say out longer! 10/10
Response from Host, Oct 2025
I’m so glad you had such a great time out on the water! It’s always fun when guests want to take the helm and trim the sails — or just kick back on the bow and soak in the view. I was happy to extend the sail a bit longer; days like that are too good to rush. Thanks for the kind words and the 10/10 — hope to sail with you again soon!

Everything for our trip went just as planned. Aiden was a spectacular host, and I would recommend this trip to anybody and everybody. Parking can be difficult during high season. I recommend using the valet service at The Monsaraz for $15.
