Catamaran Writing Conference

The 11th annual conference is Aug 30 - Sept 2, 2026

At Cavallo Point in Sausalito

We invite you to transform your creative writing in the inspiring landscape of Cavallo Point, nestled at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge and surrounded by the natural beauty that has long drawn writers, artists, and thinkers to the Bay Area. The conference will be held at Cavallo Point’s historic lodge, where elegant gathering spaces, intimate meeting rooms, and sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay will provide the perfect setting for workshops, lectures, and literary conversations.

Registration includes three nights lodging at Cavallo Point, community breakfasts and lunches shared with fellow writers, and three days of immersive literary workshops and lectures in an intimate group setting of up to 35 participants, as well as an opening night dinner and special guest speaker. Together, participants will enjoy a rare opportunity to write, learn, and connect within a vibrant literary community in one of Northern California’s most inspiring locations.
