We had a fantastic time kayaking at Santa Barbara with Sean. He’s a full time 9th grade teacher during the year, and in the summer he gives this amazing tour to families like ours. We all enjoyed it quite a bit, and strongly recommend it!

We had a really great time on our kayaking tour around the bay in Santa Barbara. It was a super calm day and we got to enjoy the chilled out Californian atmosphere. Our guide, Liam, was really knowledgable and pointed out all the interesting sights and told us some great stories about the town. He also let us get the hang of the kayak first and went at our pace to make sure we didn’t get too far behind. We saw all the Santa Barbara wildlife which was awesome, sometimes getting really close up (but not too close!). I’d definitely recommend this trip to anyone who’s visiting the city. Thanks for a really great afternoon, Liam!
