Start by getting outfitted with paddle jackets, PFDs, a paddle, and a kayak. Your guide provides a paddling demonstration and safety talk, then makes sure you are comfortable in your boat. Set out on the water from the boat launch and paddle through the harbor, passing other boats, the historic wharf, under the pier, and along the beach. Along the way, look for wildlife like harbor seals, sea lions, brown pelicans, sea stars, cormorants, and seagulls. Expect to paddle approximately one to two miles (1.5–3 km) along the coast before returning to the boat dock where your tour ends.

5.00Our tour was a lot of fun, and our guides, Luke and Sophia, were great! Luke especially shared a wealth of knowledge about kayaking in general, and about the history and wildlife of the local environment. The tour was well paced, and the atmosphere was excellent. We definitely plan on booking the Channel Islands tours in the future, and would be pleased to have these wonderful guides again!

5.00Marley and Spencer were absolutely great, and very informative. It was just my friend and I on the tour so we had their full attention. We would have liked to have had separate kayaks though instead of a tandem one.
Great SB experience

5.00The experience was great and Adam’s friendliness and knowledge were much appreciated. Would book another tour just for him. The length was decent and we were lucky enough to have a “private” tour due to being the only group.
Very Fun and Educational Tour
