The Sunset Halloween Boat Party tradition started in the 90s, and we are currently digging through our boxes of DVDs and files to find what we documented from our early days. But we did find this sweet flashback collection from 13 years ago, capturing all the wild costumed magic & cheeky mayhem of our annual voyage - so here’s how we did it in 2013 🎃

In true SF fashion, we love that you all keep coming back for more, making it one of the most epic Halloween events in (and on) the Bay … So, have you got your costume sorted yet? 👻

As Summer begins to wind down and we enter Autumn in the Bay (our 2nd Summer), we find ourselves in full planning mode for the next 2 events: Sunset Halloween Boat Party on Oct 25th🕸️ & our New Years Day Get Down!

So as those announcements are loading, we thought we’d share a little throwback from one of our Sunset Season Closers - 10 years ago🌻

Sunset Parties have taken on many forms over the years... and these sweet memories are from Fall of 2016 at Stafford Lake Park - a gorgeous oasis we frolicked in for well over a decade. Enjoy the memories, tag your friends & see you on the boat!👏🏴‍☠️

We’ve been taking a bit of a summer break from our socials this summer… But it hasn’t made us stop thinking of all the good times 💫

So here’s to throwing it back to some of our Summer boat parties, sailing on the San Francisco Bay at sunset with the fog rolling in over the Golden Gate Bridge, all with a soundtrack of the best beats around. This was a Sunset tradition from the late 90’s through the mid 2010s🚢

We’ve now bottled that energy all into one - our Halloween Costume Boat Party 🎃  
So mark the calendars for Sunday, October 25th, and we’ll be seeing you all then 🌅⛵️

Of course this time of year has us thinking, reminiscing and dreaming so much of Sunset Campout 🌅✨
We realized we never shared this video from 2025 which encapsulates our feelings of deep gratitude to all the amazing people who worked so hard behind the scenes making Sunset Campout happen smoothly. We didn’t want to wait any longer to share this sentiment of thanks to all the incredible people & crews that created the magic year after year. We missed a few folks in the thank you’s - notably our awesome medical teams, so thanks to .apothecary - and to for keeping us all safe all weekend ❤️

In a seemingly fractured world, creating positive spaces, and the community that is built around that is all the more important.

So to all of you - thank you 🙏 Do you miss us yet?

Summer solstice is right around the corner 🌞 it’s a time we consciously picked for Sunset Campout, sharing the longest days with our community in Belden, while celebrating the solstice’s magic at a time of year when the Feather River Canyon is at its most beautiful ✨🌳

We feel so grateful to have spent so many incredible years, cultivating this special event in such a unique setting. We are missing Belden, and all of our community that shared so many special moments together with us over the 15 years we spent there. 🌄

Here’s a little recap from Sunset Campout 2025 - taking us back to so many blissful moments 🫶

Usually this time of year is busy with Campout preparation and excitement - so this year feels different for sure. While we were all ready for some time off, we are of course missing our community and reminiscing fondly of all the amazing years we shared on the Feather River. ✨🌈🏕️

Here’s a recap from last year, reflecting a the smiles, laughter, river, dancing, yoga, art and beautiful connections that we’ll miss dearly this year on Belden . ❤️

Hope you can all find some of this magic to take with you this summer on your adventures 💫
