Every voyage is an invitation to experience the magic of the Bay and a story waiting to unfold.

Founded 23 years ago by Captain Kirk Miller, the family-owned company has grown into a trusted charter operation with a fleet of three luxury sailing yachts and a team of expert captains and crew. Each captain brings their own wealth of experience, ocean miles, and a deep passion for sailing. Together, they share a common goal: to create unforgettable adventures on the iconic waters of San Francisco Bay.

The captains of Captain Kirk’s San Francisco Sailing are not just skilled navigators—they are storytellers of the Bay. Whether it's gliding silently past the rust-red towers of the Golden Gate Bridge at sunset, tracing the green slopes of Angel Island, or watching pelicans dive near Alcatraz’s weathered stone walls, each trip offers a new perspective on the natural beauty and maritime spirit and history of San Francisco Bay.

For guests eager to learn, the captains provide hands-on sailing instruction, from trimming sails or taking the helm.  For those who prefer to relax, there’s the thrill of the wind and waves, the salt air, and panoramic views that stretch from the rolling Marin Headlands to the glittering skyline of San Francisco.

The allure of the Bay changes with every hour and every tide, from fog-kissed mornings to golden-hour glows. The Captain’s stories, experience, and deep connection to the sea make each charter feel like both an adventure and a homecoming.

Step aboard and let the journey begin. With Captain Kirk’s San Francisco Sailing, every sail is a story waiting to unfold, whether you're seeking exhilaration, serenity, or a little of both. Let us be your guide as we explore the beauty of the bay and create memories that will last a lifetime.
