We really enjoyed out kayaking tour with Paige! We went to see some sea lions, zigzagged the pier, and went around the harbor. The views were great too! An hour and a half was just the right amount of time for our group! Thank you Paige!

So much fun. We were a family of 5, and had a lovely time on this tour. Definitely recommend. Lia was so knowledgeable of Santa Barbara. She recommend the best places to go, we ended up going to all of them! Super happy that we decided to do this first, because it definitely mapped out the rest of the trip. She trained us pretty well, and had a smooth kayak the whole time. Go for it! It’s a blast.

Our kayak tour of Santa Barbara is such a great way to get a feel for Santa Barbara and find the places and things to do that you might never know about here in Santa Barbara

Our guide was great! She was patient with us teaching us how to steer our kayaks. But despite the learning curve in the first few minutes, the excursion was very relaxing. We enjoyed the scenery, seeing sea monkeys up close, chatting with our guide learned some Santa Barbara history, and got a little workout. I would definitely recommend this tour!
