Monterey Bay Kayaks

"Amazing time in Elkhorn Slough! Saw plenty of wildlife, including otters, seals, and countless birds. Joel was an exceptional tour guide, with tons of knowledge. If we ever are back in the area we would 100% book again with the company."

"Spent a fantastic 3 hours looking at Sea Otters and Sea Lions along the Monterey coast. Staff are brilliant, friendly and helpful My kids are pretty sure that the cool turtle from Finding Nemo was based on our instructor! Out of our whole two week vacation in California my wife said this was her favourite part. Top tip, either cover your feet or put plenty of suncream on them, we got burnt!"

"Went with my partner for a 9am 2.5 hour paddle while visiting the area and had a blast! Adam was our guide and it ended up being just us on the water which let us go at our own pace. Adam was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and area which came in handy as we got to see multiple rafts of Otters, some mother/pup pairs in the Harbor, sea lions, pelicans, harbor seals, and even a baby Mola Mola! As if Adam’s knowledge of the wildlife wasn’t enough, he also gave us some awesome food recommendations! Highly recommend if you love marine wildlife, support eco-friendly tourism and want to have a lot of fun!"

"First time for sea kayaking and this place is perfect Everyone here is extremely nice We went Kayaking with Marlin and she was fantastic, she shared lots of facts sea life and had great understanding marine biology The tour takes about 2 and half hours and we were back by 11:30 am You get choice of wet suit , jacket and life vest They give you basics of padding and after that you go exploring the waters and wild life We saw many otters, sea lions and harbor seals The kelp forest was a highlight for me where the otters are camouflaged I will definitely visit again"

"Great experience on the 2.5 hour kayaking trip. Will was a great guide, learned so much about the local wildlife and it was really enjoyable. We saw tonnes of sea lions, otters and plenty of invertebrates - highly recommend!"
