We joined this tour with x4 kids (5, 8, 9, and 11). We all had a blast! The store was cool, with great staff. I was really nervous about going out into the open ocean with my 5 year old (my 5 year old is a better swimmer than I am), but the beach staff was very accommodating. They pushed us out further into calmer water, and then retrieved us before we hit the waves coming in. They were all so encouraging and safe. Our tour guides were Mark and Kristin. They were nice and fun. They all obviously love what they do and it shows! The kayaking part was a bit strenuous if your not an exerciser (raising hand). They did take periodic breaks to teach you a little something about the eco system, and tell stories about the area. We got to see some sea lions barking and swimming! We were even able to go into the cavern, which was awesome! The guides get off their kayaks and hold onto the back of your kayak to steer you into and out of the cavern. Afterwards, we hung out and played on the beach. Bring some cash for the push cart vendors on the beach if your hungry after. We were all smiling the entire time!
