We had a great tour of the harbor and saw sea lions and a harbor seal totally worth doing. Kirsten was a great guide and had fantastic hiking and food recommendations.

This was such a fun activity and a great way to see Santa Barbara and learn about the area. Our guide, Paige was awesome. She was so friendly and very knowledge on the local flora & fauna. She had great recommendations for other activities and places to eat & drink. She also was a photographer for our group and we got some awesome photos! Our group had such a fun time seeing the sea lions, seals, and pelicans! Overall this was a great tour with a great guide!

We booked our kayak tour and was lucky enough to get Orion as our tour guide. The water was like glass for our 11am tour. The weather was perfect. He took us around the harbor all the way out to the red buoy. We raced (he won) lol We got to relax and talk for about 20 minutes and chill. He was very informative and so much fun! This was a perfect way to end our last family getaway before we move our oldest daughter to college in Texas and our younger one starts her 1st day of 7th grade junior high. We love Santa Barbara!
