What To Expect

Horn Sharks, Sea Lions, Garibaldis, Zebra Fish, Opal Eye, Kelp Bass, Water Birds, and tons of other sea life that call the La Jolla Cave and surrounding reefs their home! We'll pass many free diving spots on the way to the Famous Emerald Cave that we'll swim into! Guests MUST know how to swim :) MEETING LOCATION: We'll meet at our shop, La Jolla Cove Market - where we'll suit up! It's a quick walk to where we'll jump into the water. There is a big sign that says MARKET, or: 8008 Girard Ave, Suite 190, La Jolla. This tour involves swimming throughout the cove and into the water cave. Our wetsuits are very buoyant, but guests MUST know how to swim as there is no life jackets available in the cove because its a protected wildlife area. Guests will be required to sign a waiver before entering the water.

    Had an amazing experience with Jayne. She was very informative and made sure I had a great time. She also helped me release a muscle cramp - once again, thank you for that! :) The tour took place in late September and the visibility was great. I had a 7 mm wetsuit on which was perfect for approx. 67 F water temperature - I didn’t feel any cold and felt like I could stay in the water for hours. We saw a cute horn shark, lots of Garibaldis, a sheephead, and lots of other fish. We also visited a few caves, but the main highlight of the tour for me were the sea lions. It was amazing to see them swim around. The adults tend to keep their distance, but be prepared that a curious and playful pup might come really close to check you out :) Overall, I had a great time and will definitely be back! Thank you, Jayne!

    This snorkel tour is outside of La Jolla Cove and explores the caves just beyond. Floatation devices are NOT included. I would not recommend this if you do not feel confident swimming in open ocean. I would rate this activity as enjoyable for STRONG, CONFIDENT Swimmers only. If you are not used to exerting yourself physical and are anxious about being in the ocean then I don't think this is an activity for you.

  • Great Experience Snorkeling

    The tour was fantastic. Our guide, Jane, was knowledgeable and pleasant. We never would have done the cave without her. We felt safe in the water with her too. We had a great time and would not hesitate to book a tour with them again. If I can give one piece of advice to people taking the tour, Bring $5. We wanted to tip her at the end but of course left our money in the car for safety.

  • I wouldn't recommend it- its a waste of money.

    I had a bad snorkeling experience. It felt dangerous because there were no safety measures in place. If someone gets tired in the water, there’s no support or help available. Also, there wasn’t much to see, which made the whole experience disappointing and unsafe.”

  • Fun day

    Guide was capable and fun. Skylar was her name. She is the same age as my daughter so they enjoyed each other’s company. Saw sea lions, girabaldi and a ray. Got to enter the cave too!
