History

Established in 1980.

Since 1980 Seabreeze Limited has been providing a unique assortment of products to boaters worldwide. Recognized as the best-​stocked nautical bookstore on the West Coast, Seabreeze also offers the complete catalog of NOAA and NGA navigation charts and publications, charts from the Canadian Hydrographic Service and the British Admiralty and now French charts for French Polynesia and the Pacific Islands.

We carry navigation tools and charting software, study guides for US Coast Guard licenses, and cruising guides covering most of the world. For the non-​cruising fleet we have how-​to guides, what-​is-​it references, and adventure stories (true and fictional).

Our crew includes licensed captains, live-​aboard boaters, and experienced cruisers. The atmosphere at Seabreeze is casual but the store’s intent is serious: We want to make sure each boater gets the right stuff. Ultimately it’s about keeping our friends safe — wherever their boats float — and helping them enjoy our favorite activity.
