As much as we love animals, there really is not enough room for them to roam on our boats. Sailing on Big Bear's beautiful waters requires a safe and comfortable environment for all our passengers, and the limited space on board doesn't allow pets to move around freely. We recommend arranging for pet care while you enjoy our Day Sails, Private Sails, Sailing Lessons, or Sunset Sails. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

We strive to provide a comfortable and enjoyable experience on the water. While we do have an enclosed porta potty on board for emergencies, we highly recommend that you use the restroom facilities on land before embarking on your sail. This ensures maximum comfort and convenience throughout your tour.
