Corporate Meetings & Receptions

Top Conference Networking and Social Event Venue

We are San Diego’s best location for corporate receptions, meetings and private events. Each historic vessel offers a distinct platform for your next gathering.

The National Historic Landmark, 1898 Berkeley ferryboat, located near the convention center on San Diego Bay, is available for corporate and private events, meetings, special events, and social gatherings. The Berkeley event space is not only unique with her gorgeous Victorian era appointments, but the space also has two large open-air decks that offer incredible views of both the downtown city skyline as well as breathtaking sunset views of the harbor. The event space boasts a large dance floor, beautiful hand carved wood seating, and Victorian (opalescent) stained glass windows that are back-lit at night and crown the venue with grace and elegance.

The historic tall ship Star of India is arguably, the most unique icon of San Diego, if not all of Southern California. Built in 1863, she has circled the globe 21 times and has been designated with National and State Historic Landmark status.

The Star of India can be transformed, from an elegant cocktail reception to an exhilarating Pirate party. With its magnificent top decks, the Star of India is surrounded by a 360 degree breath-taking view of the San Diego skyline and harbor.

HMS Surprise, from the 20th Century Fox Studios movie hit, Master And Commander, is available for corporate events and private events or gatherings. Host your unique corporate event, cocktail reception, a pre-dinner gathering, or dance on her decks into the night. She has a treasure of opportunities.

Californian, official tall ship for the state, has the dexterity to sail or stay dockside for intimate events and charters. She is highly instrumental in serving the community with our results oriented corporate team-building and sailing programs.

San Salvador, a replica of the 1542 Spanish galleon explorer Cabrillo sailed into San Diego Bay, provides a dramatic and elegant setting for custom cocktail & dinner events as well as charted day sails for team building & corporate entertaining.

Our uniqueness, location, and selection of ships makes us a top conference networking and social event venue.

Testimonials
I wanted to say a very big thank you to you and your team for helping us to host a most wonderful event on the Berkeley and Californian last night. The venue looked beautiful, all of the staff was friendly and helpful, and the entertainment and catering was perfect. You’ve both been such a support and help to me in organizing this event, which has been challenging due to my being on the other side of the world! I would not hesitate in recommending the Maritime Museum of San Diego and will indeed do so again whenever the occasion arises. Thanks again!
