Sunset Kidd Sailing: Your Gateway to Marine Careers

About Us

The Sunset Kidd is located in the beautiful Santa Barbara Harbor.

We have been offering spectacular coastal and sunset sails since 1987. 

Sunset Kidd is a 41 ft. Morgan OutIsland Ketch. We offer Public Sailing Cruises, Daytime Sails, Sunset Sails, Seasonal Whale Watching, Full Moon Cruises ​and Memorials funerals- Scattering of Ashes and Full Body Burials. 

You can create your own memories for a special occasion by renting the boat out at any time for a Private Charter... including Engagements, Weddings, Anniversaries, Birthdays, Company Parties, or just taking out a few friends for a great time on the Pacific Ocean.   This is True Sailing, not to be confused with a narrated ride!

We love to Sail!     Love to hear the Pacific Ocean lapping up against our hull. 

Love to hear the wind whisper through the rigging. We love the Spectacular Santa Barbara Coast. 

Don't confuse us with a crowded Tourist boat carrying 49 passengers... Our Max Sailing capacity is 16 passengers,  

We want to treat you like family. The Sunset Kidd is safe and stable for Children of all ages and we are pet friendly! Enjoy viewing a variety of sea life such as Dolphins, Sea Lions, Seals, Birds, and Whales! 

Sunset Kidd Has terminated our cocktail Bar during COVID. For the year 2021, please BYOB!

​Get creative and bring a picnic too. We request "soft" ice chests... where you can lift it onboard.

If you then fall in love with boating in Santa Barbara, inquire with our Yacht Broker services, 

The Sunset Kidd has 35 years of experience. Established in 1987
