Paddle Southern California’s most magnificent coastline and see Laguna Beach the way it was meant – from the Pacific, where nature performs daily.
When you are ready, click here to book online.
Our two hour guided eco-tour is a great way for families, friends, couples and groups to experience the splendor of the Pacific. There’s no way to get closer to the reefs, secluded beaches, tide pools and sea life. You’ll also see some magnificent beachfront homes.
We launch out of Fisherman’s Cove, one of the calmest, wave-protected coves in Laguna Beach, then paddle the North Laguna coastline, teeming with marine life in its crystal clear waters. You’ll see hidden reefs where bright orange garibaldi fish swim just beneath you, and giant starfish attach to the rocks. We’ll explore the expanding and magnificent kelp forest, growing up to a foot a day. You’ll enjoy views of Main Beach and the hidden coves and beaches of North Laguna. And we’ll get up close and personal with a colony of sea lions at Seal Rock, a nature sanctuary. Our instructors are all experienced watermen and women who will share their love of the ocean with your group.
