16th-century galleon San Salvador Sail Package

Jan 25 - ongoing

The Maritime Museum of San Diego is the only attraction to offer this popular day sail adventure experience aboard San Salvador, a replica of Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo’s ship that arrived at the port we now call San Diego on September 28, 1542. These 4-hour Sailing Adventures are for people who love history and sailing. Few 21st Century people have sailed aboard a 16th Century galleon. You can become one of them. No sailing experience is required. An invaluable addition to your experience is the onboard historian who will explain how the San Salvador was sailed, navigated and defended. 

In addition to learning about the exploration of the West Coast, guests can assist the sail crew, enhancing their back-in-time experience.

Your tickets include general admission to visit the Museum fleet of ships and exhibits before your sail!

Cash Box Kings

Mar 20, 2025

Co-led by songwriter, harmonica and singer Joe Nosek, and real-deal Chicago blues vocalist and songwriter Oscar Wilson, the Cash Box Kings play masterfully raw and unvarnished house-rockin’ blues.

The band features a "who's who" of some of the most excellent blues musicians on the scene today, including Billy Flynn, Kenny "Beedy Eyes" Smith, boogie-woogie and blues piano maestro Queen Lee Kanehire and upright bass wunderkind John W. Lauler. Critics worldwide recognize the band as one of the premier traditional Chicago blues bands today.

The Kings feature gritty powerhouse vocals, soaring harmonica, and razor-sharp original songs. With their top-shelf musicianship and trademark good humor, The Cash Box Kings are a one-of-a-kind blues band. In the words of MOJO magazine, the band is "flawless."
