Q&A

Q: What age is the minimum for renting kayaks or paddleboards?

A: The minimum age for renting kayaks is generally around 12 years old. For paddleboards, it’s recommended that kids be at least 8, but they should be accompanied by an adult. It's always good to check with Cal Coast Adventures directly, as they may have specific age or weight requirements depending on the gear.

Q: Can we reschedule if there's bad weather?

A: Yes! Cal Coast Adventures is usually pretty flexible with rescheduling if the weather is bad. Just make sure to call them ahead of time. They’ll help you pick another time that works. It's all about enjoying your time out on the water!

Q: What should we wear for the kayak rental? Is it cold in the water?

A: It's best to wear comfortable, quick-drying clothes like swimwear or athletic gear. Also, don’t forget sunscreen! The water can be chilly, especially early in the morning, so a light jacket can help. They provide life vests, so you’ll be good there!

Thinking about gifting a kayak or paddleboard rental in Santa Barbara!

I’m considering getting this experience for my partner’s birthday. We love the beach and I think this would be such a fun day. I’ve heard great things about Cal Coast Adventures, especially since they have top-notch gear. Has anyone done this? What’s the vibe like? Any tips for first-timers?

Review of my recent kayak rental at Santa Barbara

Just got back from a morning kayak rental at West Beach and it was AMAZING! The staff at Cal Coast Adventures were so welcoming and the equipment was top quality. We paddled around, saw some sea life, and the views were incredible! Definitely recommend this to anyone considering it as a gift!
