Snorkeling Channel Islands

This is an amazing company to go on a kayak tour with! Our guide, John, was very experienced and made us feel safe the entire trip. Keep in mind when your researching and booking, this is an ocean activity. There may be waves and swells. We had some challenging waters, but everything was a "do at your comfort level" if you didn't want to kayak into the cave, you didn't have too. We challenged ourselves and went in every cave, and it was rewarding. No one tipped the kayak on our tour, but only barely. Keep this in mind when deciding if you want to do this activity, while boating is normally a dry sport it's not guaranteed. All that said, if you have an adventurous spirit this is the tour for you. The caves are amazing, the water is beautiful, and all the sea creators are so cool! Before we got on the water John went over everything with us, from how to kayak, to how to get in and out of it.

Thank you Parker and Marc for being awesome guides! They informed us of the water conditions and gave us all of our options. Despite the waves we decided to venture out- it was totally worth it! It was challenging but the guides gave us encouragement without pushing us beyond our limits. We saw seals, starfish, fish and lots of kelp. Incredible! I would love to come back and do another kayak tour with them!

Our guide Zack on our discovery kayak tour was great! It was roughly 1.5 hrs of going into the ocean and the sea caves. Zack gave us all the safety gear and prepared us before we went in. He was super knowledgeable and made the tour fun - going into the caves was not necessary but challenging if you want to give it a go which I would recommend doing! Highly recommend doing this activity if you’re on Santa Cruz Island - it was so beautiful and a very unique experience.

We had such a great kayak expereince with our guide Caleb. He was super friendly and knowledgeable. The caves were cool and we saw some sea creatures. They provide water proof pants and jacket if you need it. Everything was well-organized and the shorter kayak trip is very doable even if you are inexperienced.

We did a one hour kayak tour with 6 in our party, we ended up having a tour to ourselves with Luke. He was a great guide! We had varying experience levels in our group and he made everyone feel comfortable. We got to go into 3 sea caves and learned a lot about the area. I hope to come back in the future!
