For experienced paddlers: Get a view of the San Francisco Bay like no other! Join us at Crane Cove Park to launch and paddle along the central waterfront. Depending on the currents we'll either head North past the Chase Center, past Pier 54 for view of the skyline, or south to Pier 70 for another vantage. We'll likely encounter wildlife and will certainly have an adventure.

Q: Do I need kayaking experience or will you teach me?
A:

No experience is necessary! Beginners are welcome on all of our kayak tours. Most of our guests have never been in a sea kayak before. Anyone in average physical condition may join a kayak tour. If you can hike or bike, you can paddle our sea kayaks. You do not need any swimming skills either.

The only prerequisite is a healthy spirit of curiosity and adventure.

Regardless of age or skill level you will find that our expeditions offer enough flexibility to make your experience with us safe and rewarding. We will show you proper sea kayaking technique and water safety before leaving the beach. And your expert guides will be with you throughout the adventure to give you pointers and improve your skills.
