Annual Sea Trek Regatta

43nd Annual Sea Trek Regatta
Come join us on Saturday, October 18, 2025 for the most fun sea kayaking event of the year!

The annual Sea Trek Regatta is a chance for the Bay Area paddling community to share in a fun and challenging day of paddling on San Francisco Bay. Come join us on Saturday, October 18th, 2025 for the West Coast's most popular and definitely most fun sea kayaking event of the year. The Regatta is open to sea kayakers, stand-up paddlers, outriggers, and other paddling crafts.

Every Sea Trek Regatta is a benefit for Environmental Traveling Companions (ETC), a Bay Area nonprofit organization providing accessible outdoor adventures for people with disabilities and under-resourced youth since 1972.

With a variety of race classes and courses, the Regatta is perfect for paddlers looking to race competitively as well as those who are just looking for a spirited paddling event to support a great cause!

This year's Regatta will be capped at 225 racers. Sign up early so you don't miss out. Race starts at 10:15 am sharp. See event schedule for more details.

Safety on the Water

All racers are required to wear a PFD. No exceptions.
All stand-up paddleboarders are required to wear a leash. No exceptions.
We will have a solid set of safety boats on the water during the event monitoring VHF Channel 68.
Remember the spirit of the Regatta while on the water: If you see someone in need, stop and help them. We are responsible for each others’ safety on the water.

The start line will be in the same historical spot, marked by two buoys anchored in the middle of Richardson Bay.

The finish line will be marked by one buoy anchored next to the Sea Trek dock. This will be set up before the race starts so that you can see where the timers and finish line are located.
Food is included in your race fees. Extra lunch tickets can be purchased for $15/person.
