Guided Kayak Tour of Santa Barbara

Take a kayak tour of beautiful Santa Barbara led by an experienced guide.

Experience beautiful Santa Barbara from the ocean by kayaking from a local’s perspective. Your experienced guide will lead you safely through the calm waters of the stunning harbour, and if you’re lucky, past some of the adorable local sea life, which includes sea lions, seals and dolphins. You’ll encounter breathtaking 360° panoramic views of the Waterfront, the Santa Ynez Mountains, the Channel Islands and the impressive vessels in the harbour, while hearing fun facts and gaining intriguing insights about the local landscape, topography, wildlife and historical landmarks.
This guided kayak tour is suitable for all skill levels – including first-time kayakers – making it a truly unique way of seeing one of California’s most beautiful coastal locations.
