This trip needs a better description. You kayak or paddle board along the docks looking for seals sleeping on the docks. I thought we'd see them on rocks or small islands. We never left the dock/marina area. We saw a sea lion in 2 different spots, and some birds. Was hoping for more. I know animals can't be controlled though. I think a weekday may be better for animal spotting as there is less human activity then. In one area, a band was playing loud music. It was good music, but likely scaring sea life away.
Alexi, our guide, was perfect. He was knowledgeable, personable, and skilled. We loved his accent (from Russia). He was easy to understand and his English was better than some Americans š¤£š„°. I find it neat to learn about people from different countries, so having a foreign your guide was a plus. Many thanks to Alexi for making the trip more enjoyable.
