On this private group kayak trip, paddle through picturesque Richardson’s Bay along Sausalito’s waterfront!

You’ll first meet us at Bay Model, within the charming Mediterranean-style town of Sausalito. Here you’ll get equipped with all the safety equipment needed to begin your kayaking adventure. On your trip, keep your eyes peeled for Harbor seals and sea lions, and enjoy the sight of birds overhead, including pelicans and cormorants. Hear stories of Sausalito & the San Francisco Bay from your local guide as you make your way around the scenic coastline. You’ll also paddle by the eclectic houseboat community, where many people make their home on the water.

After a great day of adventure, you’ll make your way back to Sausalito where you can explore on your own, and enjoy a stunning view of the San Francisco skyline.

SOME COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT KAYAKING

WILL I GET WET?

There is often a certain amount of “splash and drip” associated with kayaking, but we provide water-repellent outerwear to keep you as dry as possible. We launch from a dock especially designed for easy kayak access so you will stay dry.

WHAT ABOUT CAPSIZING THE KAYAK?

Capsizes are extremely rare. All of our trips take place in stable, sit-on-top, two-person sea kayaks (larger and steadier than river kayaks). The popular image of kayaks bobbing through rapids, and flipping upside-down is common to river kayaking but not ocean kayaking.

IS SEA KAYAKING DIFFICULT?

No. Sea kayaking is highly accessible. Our friendly, supportive staff will teach you the simple, necessary skills you need in order to enjoy your time on the water.

IS IT STRENUOUS?

Only if you so choose. Ocean kayaks glide easily, with little physical effort. Our trips are designed so that participant don’t over exert themselves; and travel is at a leisurely pace.

WILL I BE SAFE?

Yes. For precautionary purposes all our clients wear a lifejacket (or PFD personal flotation device). For all trips and classes you will be accompanied by an instructor/guide who is trained in first aid. Sea Trek has an unblemished safety record.

WILL I NEED ANY SPECIAL GEAR OR EQUIPMENT?

No. We provides all the kayaking gear that you need, plus a list of clothing suggestions to keep you comfortable, warm, and dry.

CAN CHILDREN PARTICIPATE?

Yes. Children of any age can kayak together with an adult, depending on the skill and confidence of the adult.
