I booked a sail for my wife and her friends for her 30th birthday this past weekend and they had a great time. In addition, we've sailed with Jason on our anniversary and once just for fun. The boat is very clean, Jason is very friendly and professional, and the trip is enjoyable and relaxing all at a great price. We'll continue to support Lucky Sol every time we head out on the water!

We have used Lucky Sol Sailing twice now and have had such a wonderful, effortless experience each time. Jason is knowledgeable, safe and really gave us the freedom to enjoy his boat with our friends. I will keep coming back to book with him anytime we are in need of some time on the water! Can't say enough about what a kind guy he is and what a great company he runs!

Booked a private sail for 6 people for my dad’s birthday. I was an absolute blast! It was a great experience. The boat is very clean, well kept, and comfy. Snacks and drinks were provided for a private sail. Jason (the Captain) is so friendly and a joy to be around! We will definitely be doing a sail again during the summer. Thank you, Jason! :)

I'd highly recommend a cruise with Luck Sol Sailing. We had a fantastic time. Every thing was top notch. We did the sunset trip. The boat & Captain were both outstanding.

Common questions

Where do tours depart from?

All sails depart from Marina Cortez at 1880 Harbor Island Drive, minutes from downtown San Diego and the airport, with convenient parking on site.

Tours run 2.5 to 3 hours depending on the trip, long enough to see the bay properly without eating your whole day.
