Morning light strips across the Arabian Sea and the city leans back into the water — the Taj Mahal Palace and the Gateway of India carve a jagged silhouette, and your sailboat slips away from the jetty. Salted air and a steady breeze replace the city’s roar; the skyline becomes a moving frame as you round historic lighthouses and naval piers.

Arrive early and check-in
Boarding is 15 minutes before your slot—arrive at the jetty early to complete quick transfer formalities and safety briefings.
Protect against the sun
Bring high-SPF sunscreen, a brimmed hat, and polarized sunglasses—sea glare is intense during both mid-morning and late-afternoon sails.
Prepare for seasickness
If you’re prone to motion sickness, take preventive medication or use acupressure bands before boarding; the harbor chop can be surprising.
Mind marine wildlife
Keep noise and movement low if dolphins appear—do not attempt to touch or feed wildlife, and follow skipper instructions for sightings.
Sunscreen (SPF 30+)
Protects against strong coastal UV and reflective glare from the water.
