The Port of san Diego’s annual Festival Of Sail will bring a full four days of touring the ships, delicious food and drink, a beer garden, and even pirates and a petting zoo!

There will also be cannon battles on the bay, sunset cruises, and shopping at the street fair.

The Festival of Sail is the largest tall ship festival on the West Coast, so if you know anyone that has a thing for these giant wonders, you better bring them!

The festival is sponsored by the Port of San Diego’s Tidelands Activation Program, designed to bring our dynamic waterfront alive with events that engage the community and inspire visitors to enjoy San Diego Bay.
