Summary

This is the perfect tour to introduce your family to ocean kayaking. The calm waters of Port San Luis Harbor are a favorite among families with younger kids. Join us for this easy and fun tour as we explore and learn more about the ocean. Our friendly guides know where to spot all the best wildlife and how to keep your family safe.

On this tour, we've added fun activities specifically for families with kids to help everyone become more confident on the water and learn lots about wildlife. We also made this tour a little shorter in distance and a little more easy going than our regular Avila Beach Adventure Kayak Tour. We make sure there's extra time for kids of all ages to explore, have fun, and just be kids.

Explore Port San Luis Harbor at a leisurely pace and learn more about our resident sea otters, harbor seals, sea lions, birds, dolphins, and whales. From kelp forests to pier pilings, Smith Island to the breakwater, and from tide pools to open waters, Port San Luis is full of wildlife. Our guides are trained naturalists who love sharing their local expertise and passion for our area.

This tour is ideal for families with younger children (minimum age 7). Children must be accompanied by an adult. For smaller kids, we recommend 1 adult per child in a double kayak. No kayaking experience required, but everyone must be able to swim. For families with older kids that will enjoy a more athletic and challenging tour, please check out our Avila Beach Adventure Kayak Tour (Ages 13+).

What's Included?
  • Enthusiastic, expert guides provide all the instruction you will need to become a better paddler, stay safe, and have a blast!
  • Your kayak, paddle, helmet, and PFD of course.
  • Wetsuit, paddle jacket, and booties (you are welcome to bring your own gear if you prefer).
  • Water and Snack (Clif Bar or similar). **If you have a nut allergy, please bring your own snack in a plastic bag. We will place that in a dry bag.**
  • Lots of quality photos from YOUR adventure shared through WeTransfer.com!  NO ADDITIONAL FEE FOR PHOTOS!
