Franky was a great guide. He was patient when my daughter and I fell off of our boat. He helped us get back on. We were able to see sea lions 🦭

My son and I were looking to do a guided kayak tour and this was perfect. We were not concerned about high adventure or others who needed more instruction. Our guides were amazing. The scenery was absolutely beautiful. We had a fantastic experience!!

Skip this tour if you get sea sick!!!!!!!!! I went with 3 friends and we all have sea kayaking experience but all got horribly sea sick and had to turn around to go back to shore about halfway through. Although we had a pretty bad experience on the water, everyone else in our group seemed to be fine and our experience before we got sick was pretty positive, and I can’t fault the tour company or guides for our nausea. Check-in is easy and the tour guides were really friendly and knowledgeable. I recommend renting the locker for your belongings. I pictured starting at a boat launch but you start on the beach and have to get over the waves which was kinda tough. Before we turned around we got to see baby leopard sharks! On the water, there was a lot of staying still and floating and listening to the guides talk about the ecosystem, which was interesting but the sitting still is what caused my friends and I to start getting nauseous. I’d say we’re generally prone to motion sickness, however, none of us have never had a problem getting sick kayaking before, so if you ever get motion sickness, proceed with caution.

Really positive guide. Loved the whole experience. Saw a sea lion swimming by us. If you get motion sick though you will with this activity.

I really enjoyed the guides talking about the ecosystem and the surrounding areas. I was very saddened that the tide was too low to go in the caves.

Chance and Frankie were excellent tour guides. They were knowledgeable about the natural habitat, funny and even though the waters were choppy, they found a way to allow us to see the caves, even if for just a minute. Highly recommend.
