Our tour guide Asa was fantastic, making it a memorable experience for my three teenagers who really enjoyed themselves. Seeing the seals, sea lions, and pelicans was an added bonus. Thank you, Asa.
This kayaking experience in the harbor was made enjoyable by the friendly and knowledgeable guides. It's an ideal choice for families and beginners.
Gar and Sophia proved to be excellent guides, assisting us with kayaking techniques and towing our kayaks when necessary. Despite the overcast weather and small group size, we enjoyed an intimate experience. They shared valuable insights about the harbor and its wildlife, allowing us to observe seals, sea lions, and numerous birds, including a mother seal bringing her pup to shore. It's a fun activity for those looking for adventure on the water.
We had an excellent kayaking experience with Artie. At low tide, he pointed out a warty sea cucumber, a bat star, and a mermaid’s purse. We even spotted a mother seal and her pup swimming in the harbor. It’s a great adventure for families.
Our first kayaking experience was wonderful, and the tour guides were outstanding. They were friendly and provided plenty of informative insights.
Our family had a great time kayaking. The guides were supportive and provided thorough preparation before we set off, ensuring everyone felt safe and comfortable. The tour was labeled as a Wildlife Kayak tour, and it would have been beneficial if the guides shared more information about the birds we observed, as they were the primary wildlife we encountered. We paddled through the harbor and briefly explored some rougher waters, which added to the fun.
This kayak trip was ideal for families. Our guide was professional and friendly, ensuring everyone felt at ease. We encountered seals, sea lions, and various seabirds while safely venturing into the open sea.
Seeing Santa Barbara from the water was a fantastic experience. The views were incredible, offering a fresh and thrilling perspective of the area.
The experience was wonderful, and I highly recommend it. We had great guides, Rachel and Andrey, who made the trip enjoyable. The views of the harbor, Santa Barbara, and wildlife from the kayaks were fun.
Our kayaking tour with Adam as our guide was an outstanding experience. He was friendly and knowledgeable, making it both enjoyable and educational. We appreciated learning more about Santa Barbara while on the water. Highly recommend!
