The Maritime Museum of San Diego invites you to join us for Tall Ship adventure sailing! This is a four-hour adventure history sail aboard the schooner Californian.
The Californian is a replica of a gold rush era revenue cutter and the Official Tall Ship of the State of California.

Arrive early to take in your general admission visit to the entire fleet and exhibits, then set sail! 

Join the crew in sailing a traditionally rigged tall ship! Passengers will be invited to haul a line, man the helm and watch the crew as they scamper up and down the rigging to set and furl the sails. Listen as the Californian’s crew relates the history of sailing and exploration in San Diego, tales of whaling and sea otter trade, local sea battles, the art of ship’s gunnery, life at sea and more.

All of the activities, vendors and performances will take place inside the garden’s gates. We invite guests to make special oni masks, as well as participate in the Mamemaki, or bean tossing event. Special Masu cups filled with Roasted Soybeans for the event will be available for purchase online or at JFG’s gift shop located inside the Inamori Pavilion. Guests can also enjoy Taiko Drummers, Kamishibai, and Go. We’ll also have special Eho-Maki rolls and mochi available at our cafe. Come join us for an exciting event!
