Adventures By The Sea

Very friendly and knowledgable staff. We rented kayaks for the day to view all the sea life and coastline along the main strip. I would recommend renting kayaks and dikes from here. You get discount on bike rental if your rent kayaks. The staff were very thyroid go on the does and don’t of kayaking and there was no pressure. They answered all our questions.

Very kind and knowledgable tour guide Ann took us around the harbor. Weather was perfect and all the equipment provided! We saw a bunch of animals on the tour. We had a tandem kayak so we were able to have one person take pictures and the other person row. Really recommend people to try it out!

James took great care of us and we had the BEST experience! The area was beautiful tropical water and the boards were sturdy he picked the best boards!

Great girls day on the bay Stand Up Paddle Boarding! Katie was some sweet and helpful. We will definitely return!

This is a great place to stand up paddle board. The manager there is very nice and gives great direction on paddleboard especially if it’s your first time. it’s easy to learn and it has a great rate. The location is great especially if you’re a beginner. The manager gave us free sunscreen and wet suits are included!

My husband and I rented a surrey from here and rode it for an hour. It was SO convenient, fun and exciting to cruise along the path and get to our location in a new way. We started at portola plaza and rode to lover’s point. this is a MUST see! Lover’s point is beautiful and fresh. Renting the surrey was, cheap, fun, easy and definitely going to do it again!

Stopped in at the last minute. The guy who helped us was welcoming and friendly, and VERY patient while deciding to ride bikes. Will definitely use them again when I return with my kids

Katie was wonderful and helped us rent some SUP for two hours with some great tips! She did an expert job fitting us to wetsuits (no easy feat!) and was very helpful, chill, and a great help. Great attitude, loved the experience — would definitely recommend!

Eric-with-a-«C» was the BEST instructor I could have hoped for for my first time stand-​up paddle boarding. He was patient, reassuring and kind. He even dared me (a sea phobic California girl) to jump in the water just so I could practice getting back out. And I did! The topper was his taking pictures of me and my husband so I could prove I have sass to my good friend out-​of-​state. Perfect experience. I would recommend him to anybody and Adventures By The Sea is in a gorgeous location. You’d have to put a lot of effort into NOT having a good time.

spur of the moment decided to rent bikes. $ 8 per hour, $ 20 for 3 – 4, $ 34 all day. we had the bikes for 3 hours. We biked all along lovers point, down to the lighthouse and back. it was an awesome way to explore the area! guy was friendly and knowledgable, gave a few tips. asked to bike locks as well, so we could leave the bikes and wander down paths to the beach, etc.

Came here to go kayaking with my anxious 8 year old. Staff was super understanding and patient as I coaxed her out of dressing room and into the boat. Kayaked for about an hour from the super easy boat ramp and through the protected marina. Returned, ditched the kid and took a single out for another 1.5 hours. Super flexible and laid back, great spot to launch, tons to see. Will definitely return.

Came here for SUP lessons and had an awesome time! Stand-​up paddleboarding is really easier than it looks, especially if you have experience in other board sports (to overcome the main challenge of being able to… stand up on the board)
We had a two hour lesson with a great instructor who made the experience really fun. We were able to pick up pretty fast, and went on a mini-​adventure that included plenty of marine wildlife spotting. I saw some jellyfish in the water right next to my board, which motivated me to try to not fall off! Among those were some sea otters, lots of sea lions (including one at touching distance that barked at me like it was going to kill me), pelicans, and water-​diving birds. Pretty sweet experience!
The location for SUP and kayaking is off the pier at Breakwater Cove Marina on the pier at 32 Cannery Row, just down the street from their other office. There’s a parking lot there that takes both cash and card, which charges $ 1.50 per hour.
They have two changing rooms and a bunch of cubbies to store belongings in. Wetsuits and booties also are included in lessons and rentals!
The staff is super friendly and chill. We were there on a weekday so it wasn’t crowded at all and we got excellent service. Definitely coming back for repeat business! :)
