The week we were in Santa Barbara was very windy and many of our planned activities were canceled. We booked the private kayak tour last minute hoping it wouldn’t also be canceled. We lucked out and were able to kayak a long the wharf with very little wind. Carson was an amazing guide. He was knowledgeable about the area, giving history and background on many different things. He also gave us recommendations for other fun activities and locations to visit. We had the best sushi lunch based on his suggestion! We highly recommend Carson!
