Emily was upbeat and fun, very knowledgeable about the coast and the general area. She respected the environment and the area which I appreciated. She also gave good recommendations on places to go to.

Lovely private kayak tour around the pier and marina. The guide is an environmental biologist so gave get overview of the geology and environment. Very good. Kayaks are easy to paddle and navigate.

We met our guide, Noah, on the beach. He gave some instruction on how to use the kayak and then we set off. The kayaks are wide, open boats with comfortable seats. During the trip we saw pelicans and seals. Noah provided lots of interesting information and was very friendly and helpful. Even though it was quite late in the season (october) the weather was great. Total distance kayaked is not too great, so this is also suitable for people with somewhat limited kayaking skills. Recommended!
