Everything was provided by the company. I even was able to purchase a cute hat since I forgot mine at home. The guides were very energetic and entertaining and informative and helpful. We had a particularly lovely day on the ocean.
This was a great experience! I will say we were caught off guard when we weren't told that we won't be able to see the caves that day at check in and were instead told on the beach as we were getting ready to leave for the tour. Otherwise, it was a good experience and beginner friendly coming from someone who has never kayaked before in their life. We got to see the caves from a distance since the waves were too strong but nonetheless an excellent experience. The tour guide was well versed in the knowledge of sea creatures and La Jolla history which was a plus. I will be returning again:)
It was great. We came 30 minutes in advance and rented a locker for $7 and they provided us a helmet and life vest. We waited down by the beach until our tour guides came and they gave us a quick demonstration on directing your kayak and how to get out and back from shore, which was such a relief because it was a first time. We had a blast, it was definitely a good team workout lol and a wonderful date idea overall! ☺️ we did get sunburnt lol, make sure to apply before your trip!! You are out longer than your sunblock lasts
The staff was friendly and helpful. We would have appreciated being given accurate information on the ocean conditions. The employees that checked us I made it seem like it wasn’t that bad, our guides told us the opposite. We booked 2 doubles. My husband and I and our daughters in the other kayak. Halfway through the tour, my husband got sick because the ocean was so choppy. Our daughters did complete the tour but commented it was a challenge to get back yo shore due to the conditions. They were not able to go in the sea cave, which is one of the reasons we booked the tour. Pretty disappointing.
Gaby, our tour guide was absolutely fantastic. Very kind and calm with us noobs. The whole crew was super efficient and communication was top notch.
Enjoyable being out on the ocean
The sea caves in La Jolla are nice, but there are too many kayakers in the group, too many other kayaking tours, along with snorkelers. You’re constantly fighting for space. There are traffic jams to go into the caves. Other tours get right next to you and the other tour guide was yelling over our tour guide, so we couldn’t hear what she was saying. If we had to redo, we wouldn’t book this tour.
Went for a bachelor party. Awesome experience. Guides were very professional and informative. Great group building activity.
I loved everything about this experience! From the ease of the reservation to the return of equipment it was a perfect day! The associates at check in were upbeat and friendly, as were the associates fitting us with the required equipment. Our guides were friendly, well educated to the surroundings and the nature of the ocean, as well as a bit comical! I was thrilled to go into a cave, even spotted a sea lion taking a siesta on a ledge in the early afternoon. I would definitely recommend this excursion and will go again next time I am in La Jolla! Thank you Everyone!!!
Jack and Liza were the best, employees of the month caliber tour, had a great time and didn’t fall in
