Nate was a great guide! Thank you for taking us to see the sea lions, giving us info about the boats and birds, and doing the special extras that we requested like looking for starfish at the pier (even if we didnā€™t find any). Loved our tour!

My 10-year-old son and I had an amazing kayaking tour of the Santa Barbara pier area with our guide Siena! We kayaked around the dock, pier area, and towards the ocean. We even made a stop to check out a local surfing/tide spot. Siena is very knowledgeable about the local area, and shared with us all sorts of interesting information. I'm grateful that she was gracious to take the time to answer ALL of the questions that my son had for her. The views were awesome! We were lucky that day to have great weather. Thanks Siena for such a great experience!
