The La Jolla caves kayak tour was a fantastic way to spend some quality time on the ocean. We had picture perfect weather and calm water to enjoy kayaking from the beach out to the caves and back. Our guides, Jordan and Claire were excellent. Both had great information to share on the surrounding area and marine life. Sharing a double kayak made the trip more enjoyable for two people as we could chat as we went. Highly recommend this tour! I hope to come back again one day to do with my may family!

My wife and I were fortunate enough to have a guided trip with Omar, who shared his extensive knowledge of both the La Jolla Cove and the surrounding neighborhoods we could see from the water. He was extremely helpful in his instructions both getting out past the break and returning, which was key as we saw a number of kayaks flip coming in. All in all a memorable adventure.

I want start by saying that guides, Katie and Eric, were really awesome and very funny. They gave great information and kept things easy and relaxed. The helpers on the beach were also truly heroic in working to get everyone past the high surf. Since the surf was high we werenā€™t able to go into the caves, and didnā€™t see a whole lot of marine life. It was fun to be on the water in the sun, but there wasnā€™t a lot to do. The tour company canā€™t control the weather and surf, so itā€™s really no oneā€™s fault. Riding the waves back in was really fun and exciting, and my husband and I joked there needs to be a tour where you just ride the waves out an back in for an houršŸ˜‚. Eric gave great recommendations for lunch, and all in all a good time on the water.
