Awesome experience!

JILL_B, Aug 2022

Excellent time! Great guide Indy, and the rest of the shore team made getting in and out of kayak fun, and not so scary to worry about falling out! Indy was knowledgeable and great guide. We saw different fish and sea lions, great swim into the caves. Don’t miss doing this!!!

Snorkelling fun

Swimming in the caves & seeing the dolphins swim right by us as well as seeing a seal up and close was amazing

Rushed and quite messy

JoelBesse, Aug 2022

Very small lockers. Quite dirty facility, with people on top of each other. Instructor was funny and knowledgeable enough, but lost time having forgotten to take something with him after departure of the 5 kayaks. Very busy also on the water with many boats waiting at the caves. Little time was left for snorkeling.

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Thank you for the feedback. If we are lucky enough for a return visit please consider one of our larger lockers if available. The rental charge vary by size. Although we can't really do much about the large demand during the summer months we will pass along your feedback in regard to the facility cleanliness. thank you for choosing Bike and Kayak

Had a blast!

Had a blast! Our favorite San Diego vacation activity despite it being a very windy day so no going into any actual sea cliffs and no leopard sharks seen.
