5.00Kayaking at this location off cannery row was perfect. The company had pants to protect our clothes and jackets in case of wind. Also wet bags to protect our other things on the kayak. The kayak and paddles were in good conditions too. We saw otters, sea lions/seals? And lots of other sea life. The weather was perfect and the tide was high so kayaking was easy breezy. At $40/person, I would do this again in a heartbeat.

2.00The water reflecting top and bottom smells and attracted flies while kayaking. So many flies kept following and bothering me and my son the whole time and couldn’t even focus. My son had enough and asked me to go back so we came in less than an hour. It was horrible. The lady said they wash them regularly and flies are attracted by sea kelps buy if that’s true why in the world there are so many flies are buzzing inside the shop? I believe it’s attracted by the sweat and bad smell from the unwashed, sea water soaked clothes including the life vest. I don’t ever want to go back and do not recommend to others.
