5Really great experience - LOTS of sea lions, great guide
The two hours on the water with our guide, Elvis (actual name he uses) was even much better than expected. We thought we’d have a good time kayaking around, but he took us to all the places where he knew the sea lions hung out. We got close to several individuals and groups. They were so entertaining. He also stopped a few times to help pelicans that had gotten caught up with fish hooks or lines. That was cool to see as well.
5Sea lion kayak tour with Elvis.
Our tour guide Elvis was amazing. He showed us great places with lots of sea lions and he was patient and a lot of fun.
5Good communication for...
Good communication for directions and meet up. Our guide, Elvis, was so friendly and knowledgable. We saw lots of sea lions and sea birds and boats. Would highly recommend for a relaxing SoCal outdoor activity.
1Save your money
It’s not at all worth the money. This more of a self guided tour rather than tour guided. I was hoping for some history or some fun facts. We saw very few sea lions and they were just sleeping on the back of boats. This booking made it seem like we would be interacting with the animals or they would come close to us. We were only on the water for 1 hour. Very disappointing.
5Excellent guide, we saw...
Excellent guide, we saw multiple sea lions including families. We were able to get close and get excellent photos. We had a great time!
5Awesome Adventure 🤩
It was an amazing experience! I had never been kayaking before and was a bit nervous. Elvis was very reassuring and helpful and made me very comfortable. It was my best friends birthday so 5 of us decided to try this. We had a blast and got to see a few sea lions and learned the basics of kayaking. I would definitely recommend this adventure! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
