Admission is free to vendor areas, however a Festival of Sail ticket/passport is required to visit ships and participate in on-water activities.
The five-day event returns only once every three years — so, this is a rare opportunity to see so many historic-design vessels in one place and relive the West Coast’s colorful sailing past.
Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for seniors 62 years and older and youths ages 6-17. Children 5 and younger are free. For more information, call (619) 234-9153 or visit www.sdmaritime.com.
