This trip was incredible, and the crew was fantastic. I strongly suggest choosing this operator for your adventure. Hopefully, you'll be fortunate enough to have Elizabeth and Trevor as your guides, just like we did.
Everyday California has an outstanding team. Josh was great at organizing a trip for us, while guides Gabe and Sawyer were knowledgeable, entertaining, and very capable. When another group member fell ill, they ensured that person and their family got back safely while continuing the tour for the rest of us. They are not only highly professional but also genuinely nice individuals.
We had a fantastic time on our trip. Our guides, Devon and another whom I regret not remembering, were incredibly friendly and made the experience enjoyable.
I went kayaking with my 16-year-old daughter, and we had a fantastic time. The tour was extended as we spotted some interesting wildlife, including dolphins and a curious young sea lion, and at no point were we hurried. Our guides, Brodie and Savannah, were exceptional—friendly, supportive, and humorous. I would highly recommend this experience.
This tour was fantastic. Although we couldn't enter the cave due to rough conditions, I valued the guides' commitment to our safety. We spotted numerous sea lions and leopard sharks. Rachel was friendly and knowledgeable about the region, and she was particularly considerate of my hearing loss, ensuring I could hear her and reminding me to turn off my hearing aids when we were likely to get wet. Great job!
Kayaking to the caves was an experience worth having. Our guides, Andy and Tatum, were excellent, and Andy's entertaining personality and knowledge stood out. We spotted leopard sharks and a variety of marine life, making it a beautiful trip.
I had an incredible time kayaking with Kacie and Gabe. They provided great insight into La Jolla's history, local marine life, and the caves. Gabe even got in the water to help guide our kayak into a cave. The kayaks were easy to maneuver with good paddles, unlike those from other companies. I suggest promoting REEF SAFE sunscreen during the tour since you have a lot of influence. Thank you for a wonderful experience! I loved being on the water and believe we should protect our ocean.
This was an incredible experience. Duke and Sawyer were our guides, and they made us feel secure and comfortable throughout our kayaking adventure. I would definitely do this again.
Robbie and Danielle were outstanding and a great asset to EDCA. We opted to pay an additional $15 for wetsuits, which I found necessary. We also spent $6 on lockers to secure our belongings instead of risking them in the ocean, and having dry items for the return was beneficial since everything I wore got soaked. Be ready to get wet and bring an extra outfit. The kayak launch involves a waist-deep entry after a three-block walk from the store. Parking is on the street, so allow more than 90 minutes to find a spot. This experience was truly memorable, featuring seals, sea lions, and kayaking inside a cave with Robbie and Danielle.
This was an outstanding adventure! The guides were engaging, well-informed, humorous, and extremely supportive. The trip was a thrilling experience in a stunning location and definitely worth the effort. Be ready to get wet and break a sweat. We were glad to do this while we still can. The guides assisted us in navigating into the caves by kayak and riding the waves back to the shore.
Aaron and Bradford, our guides, were fantastic and made the experience enjoyable! They had great knowledge of the area and were very friendly, frequently checking on everyone’s well-being. We even managed to briefly explore the caves before the waves became too rough. It was an incredibly fun time!
