Highly recommend this cruise! -

Santa Barbara Coastal Cruises September 13, 2019Whenever I’m in Santa Barbara I always go out on the double dolphin and sail. Thank you captain Spencer for the two cruises I got to sail while I was there.

Sunset Live Music Cruise May 26, 2017We took the sunset cruise and had a great time. It was a little chilly but the staff passed out blankets. Tip- do not sit on the mesh part of the boat up front unless you want to get slashed and smell like fish. I learned that the hard way. :)

Whale Watching Cruise December 1, 2016I have been going to SBSC for almost twenty years and I love it more now than ever. They have plenty of giant charter boats ready to sail as well as a whole class of one design boats. Their staff is friendly, pro, and Ian as well as Skip run the ship in the best way I have ever seen any sail club run in the world! I always rent my boats from this location, they do support the effort to keep our families together by offering a complimentary whale watching tour to any reunited child and their left behind parent! The pricing is better than anywhere you will find for the variety of charter boats and the morals are observed every time we visit!

Santa Barbara Coastal Cruises October 2, 2016I've always had a fantastic experience here!..... From the kid's sailing camps to the kayak & paddleboard rentals! All the employees are super friendly & happy. They're dog friendly- there's a water bowl in the reception area & I've always taken my little dog with me on the sups & kayaks. I think they're the best price in sb too!

Sunset Cruise in Santa Barbara August 5, 2016More adorable than other providers and perfect time for our small group that we were able to book last minute. We had a great guide, Tesh, and all of the employed were very friendly.

Santa Barbara Coastal Cruises April 25, 2016AWESOME EXPERIENCE! We rented the 19' Boston Whaler with a Captain. To top it off, we encountered a large pod of gray whales and were able to observe them up close before ending our experience. This will definitely be a regular activity!
We've rented boats for cruising inside of marinas, but have never taken a boat into open water. We've approached other boat rental companies and asked if we could pay for an employee to go out with us and show us some basics about operating their boat in nearby waters. None of them provided that option. What was insulting is that they all made us feel like we were crazy for wanting to be responsible and safe.
Santa Barbara Sailing Center DOES have an option for going out with a Captain. When we arrived, we were greeted warmly by the owner Skip Abed and his staff. Our Captain Jason patiently provided a hands-on orientation including docking, general safety and other tips, how to get in and out of the marina, how to perform normal maneuvers along the Santa Barbara coast and he provided helpful feedback while each of us operated the boat. Thanks again Jason for an awesome experience! -

Sunset Live Music Cruise February 1, 2016I took my boyfriend on a sunset cruise during september for his birthday. We boarded a gorgeous catamaran with ample seating. I loved that the crew members had a very excited attitude and promoted an atmosphere of fun. We got some champagne at the mini bar and embarked on an absolutely gorgeous sunset cruise for about an hour and a half. I would definitely do this again! I noticed a group of girls who where having a bachelorette party and thought that would be a good idea for one too..it looked like they where having a lot of fun as well.

Sunset Cruise in Santa Barbara July 11, 2015Went on a coastal cruise with the hubby. 30 bucks a person and totally worth it. Bring a sweater! We got horrible wind burn but totally our fault. They actually supply blankets, if you ask, for no extra charge. There are drinks and beer (for a price) which is nice. We sat in the front and didn't even think there was a possibility we could get wet but we did. Some people got soaked but it was still fun. (If you want a mellow ride I would suggest the cushioned seating area). We were lucky enough to get a friendly and fun crowd. Our captain Dana (I think) and his crew mate Colton were entertaining and helpful. The music selection was great! Basically, it was just a blast.
If you want to see sea lions I would suggest the sea lion cruise. We saw just one and it was sleeping. This cruise is more about seeing Santa Barbaras beauty from a distance.
If you want to choose your seat, show up 30 minutes in advance. Even an hour before because it WILL take you 30 minutes to find parking.
My only con was that the check in area was like a sorority house. I understand these are college kids but we saw a lot of people confused and needing help but the girls were too busy giggling and drunk.
I will be back though. Maybe kayaking next time! -

Whale Watching Cruise April 1, 2015My friend and I went on the whale watching cruise. It was such a beautiful, clear day with the Channel Islands in the background and Santa Barbara at shore. You could feel the excitement among the others, and we were just excited to be at sea. We saw California Grey Whales, Seals, Dolphins and Sea lions. I would have been fine with no background music, but I guess you have to have something commercial about it. Great price and lovely cruise!

Whale Watching Cruise February 27, 2015Went on the whale watching cruise and had a blast. We had fun and exciting guides along with the boat not being too crowded. The price great compared to other cruises out there and we saw lots of whales and dolphins!

Santa Barbara Coastal Cruises November 26, 2014I've enjoyed the Sailing Center for years now. Have taken a number of cruises on the Double Dolphin and they've always been great, have rented their Victory and Capri day sailors and enjoyed them tremendously, and recently completed a full course of American Sailing Association training courses with two of their crack instructors, Larry and Ken.
The entire experience has been wonderful, with great support from Ian (in charge of the sailing school), to Skip, the owner, ever-present on the dock with a welcoming smile, to the friendly staff at the front desk who always managed to process the large crowds of people there with grace and aplomb.
Overall a super addition to our local waterfront! -

Santa Barbara Coastal Cruises July 22, 2014The Sailing Center is wonderful. Great charter fleet of both sailboats and Boston Whalers, sailboats of very recent vintage in great shape, but above all the owner Skip is a delight to meet and work with. He's great with kids, very nice, a decent businessman of upstanding ideals and we can't wait to come back next summer and charter with our two girls for much longer than this time. I charter keelboats regularly in San Francisco, have my own too, and can say with great confidence that this is a class operation, top-notch.

Sunset Live Music Cruise April 21, 2014Went on a private sunset sail this past week and it was amazing! Husband and I were celebrating our anniversary in beautiful Santa Barbara and couldn't have asked for better weather or a better captain than Spencer! He was so knowledgeable about sailing and the Santa Barbara area; he answered all our questions and shared his interest in sailing with us. He made sure we were comfortable and allowed us "free reign" of the boat-great guy!
Thank you Spencer and Captain Jack's (booked the cruise through them) for a great evening! -

Sunset Live Music Cruise April 12, 2014Went on the sunset cruise while vacationing in Santa Barbara this week. The staff was very personable and knowledgable. Going out was very choppy, but it made for a lot of squealing and laughing. The music played on the boat was great. The weather was chilly, but blankets were offered to keep people comfortable. The sunset itself was beautiful and it was a very enjoyable evening at a very reasonable price!

Whale Watching Cruise April 7, 2014We went on a whale watching cruise yesterday and had an amazing time. Tyler was our capt. and he was great. He had such a fun personality and kept us entertained the whole time. We had several sightings of humpback whales (one that even breached) and one of some grey whales. It was so exciting to see these amazing creatures. Over all an amazing day and definitely worth the money.

Whale Watching Cruise April 2, 2014We've taken many whale watch trips over the years, but have never had such a wonderful time as we did on this trip. The reason? The crew, Captain Dana and Lauren were so friendly, and their excitement about being out on the water looking for whales and other wildlife was contagious. Their great attitude truly made the trip more fun than it would have been otherwise.
We did see a Grey Whale several times, along with lots of pelagic seabirds and seals. We had a wonderful time, and would choose them again. -
