Everyday California really knows how to be certain their guests have an enchanting, pleasurable and exciting experience on their kayak tours of the La Jolla Sea Caves and coastline! My two daughters (age 11 and 16) went out on a tour yesterday with Daniel and Alex. What an invigorating experience!
From the moment I called to inquire about their services to the very end of our expedition, we had a great and time! When I called to book our tour with a Groupon voucher, the woman who answered the phone was very informative, jovial, and helpful. She answered all of my questions and helped me choose the best time for my girls and I to kayak.
When we arrived at Everyday California, we were greeted by several employees checking us and other people in for tours. There was no wait, and they were so helpful and kind. I was rattled from a near accident on the way there, and the staff noticed I was clearly in need of assistance checking in. Several employees gave me assistance with huge smiles and talk of what a great experience this would be for us!
We got our life vests and helmets and were on our way to kayak! Daniel and Alex demonstrated on the beach how to paddle and gave us all of the safety tips for our tour. We could ask any questions and they were more than willing to answer them. They were SO enthusiastic! It was contagious! We all got so pumped up for a great experience! They got us off into the water and started guiding us along the shoreline.
Daniel told us amazing and funny stories about some of the homes along the coast, as well as some of his experiences touring. We couldn't help but learn some amazing facts in a very fun way! Alex was personal and was sure to keep up with those in the back of the pack! We had about 14 people, two to a kayak. Alex talked to us along the way, telling funny stories, and answering any questions we had. He also took many photos for us to get all of us together with some great shots of the caves and shoreline :)
We saw so much marine life including sea lions, leopard sharks, colorful fish, huge kelp and more! Daniel and Alex were always sure to point out all of these amazing creatures as we toured. They had fun contests among our group to ensure that we all got to know one another a bit and have fun.
Going in the cave and seeing the multitudes of sea lions hanging out was truly amazing! Alex got in the water with his wetsuit, fins, and goggles and guided two kayaks safely in and out of the cave at a time. What an experience! One we will never forget!
We paddled back along the shoreline and got to "catch a wave" with our kayaks to get back onto the beach. From beginning to end, this was a fabulous experience! We want to thank Daniel and Alex for an amazing time. We will be back for snorkeling fun with them!
Thanks from,
Ann, Elizabeth, and Hannah
