Fabulous. You're close to the water, fairly unrestricted, Paul was a great deckhand, the captain was terrific too and the playlist stellar. Highly recommended. Exceeded my expectations, fulfilled my best case scenario.

We were lucky as a small group and good weather. But a great trip the catamaran in the harbour was fantastic

Full description

Experience the beauty of San Francisco Bay on a round-trip catamaran cruise. Take in San Francisco's breathtaking skyline as you sail by Alcatraz Island and under the Golden Gate Bridge. Feel the breeze and keep a look out for sea lions. Admire your surroundings from a protected viewing area, or live on the edge and stand on the canvas trampoline nets with the waves beneath your feet. Pick up a helpful navigation guide providing information about San Francisco's landmarks as you sail past many of them. Make this experience complete by taking the helm from the captain and steering the catamaran yourself. This sail is the perfect activity for kids as well as kids at heart. The captain and crew are always there, happy to snap a photo or answer your questions about the sights of San Francisco. If all this excitement makes you hungry or thirsty, you’ll find snacks, soda, beer, and wine available at the cabin's snack bar.

For your GPS, use 2 Beach St, San Francisco, CA, 94133. When you get to Pier 39, stand on the sidewalk and look towards the water. Proceed through the main entrance to Pier 39 shops. Once inside, head out to your left between the shops to the water (towards Golden Gate Bridge). Adventure Cat is at Gate J, located right next to the sea lion viewing area.

Really respect your company's decision to go forward with the trip with only 3 passengers. A lesser company would have cancelled the trip.
