San Francisco Kayak & Adventures
Our love of the Earth and our love of Adventure inspires us to bring the Experience to you! And we believe one of the best ways to Experience Life and connect with something more is in a kayak, on an amazing hike, enjoying an adventure vacation or sharing a social outing!
San
Francisco Kayak & Adventures is unique in the kayaking industry,
because we prefer quality over quantity, we only run high touch, small
group, Guided tours of usually 8-10 people in high quality, performance,
warm and dry, Sit-In-Traditional Kayaks - This is unlike most
other
local providers that can run 20-25 people on a single tour and often use
Sit-On-Top Kayaks. We believe the best way to experience sea kayaking,
and the amazing
marine wildlife, is by being a part of a very small group
with a high-touch boat to guide
ratio.
On our kayaking tours we use only closed-deck traditional kayaks which are warmer, dryer, more comfortable, faster and easier to paddle & maneuver. This is unlike sit-on-top rental kayaks which can be leaky, wet, awkward, slow and
uncomfortable.
We believe that our client's needs are of the utmost importance, and our entire team is committed to meeting those needs. As a result, a high
percentage of our business is from repeat clients and referrals.
We welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the
best service in the industry. And, we hope to
inspire in you a greater connection to nature, and a larger connection to
the planet!!
See You Soon for an Amazing Adventure!
Cheers, SF Kayak & Adventures!
