We had a fantastic day on the water with Laird and Pat. They were very attentive to our group - we were two adults and two kids (9,12) - making sure we had all the equipment we needed, sticking with us when we needed help with our seats and jackets, and sharing with us their expertise on everything from marine wildlife (we saw harbor seals and dolphins!!) to other tours in the area with a smile. The pace was totally relaxing, but not boring (I’m a more experienced paddler and it was great). We had surfed with the same company two days before, also a great experience. I highly recommend it!!!
