California's Top Kayak Tours
When it comes to Kayak tour spots, there are a lot of places to choose from in California. Kayaking is a fun summer activity that almost anyone who can paddle can do. There are a number of top kayaking spots in the state where avid kayakers can enjoy the best of Mother Nature. Top kayaking spots in California
Lake Tahoe Emerald Bay in Lake Tahoe is one of the best places to paddle a kayak. There are numerous kayak tours offering services for those who want to paddle in Emerald Bay's calm pristine waters and enjoy the peace that nature in this part of the lake offers.
La Jolla California The shores of La Jolla are one of the best places to kayak. The seven caves are one point of interest and can be reached within a few minutes of paddling. This is one of the best places to kayak due to the natural reef system and the gently sloping ocean floor of the area. You can also paddle into sandstone caves, Claim's Cave, and Arch Cave and see wildlife from sea birds to seals and otters while paddling.
Brush Creek
Those looking for an adrenalin high will want to kayak in Brush Creek, which has one of the most turbulent waters around, with falls that offer 4 to 5-feet drops.
Consumnes River
There are a number of Kayak tours that offer services in Consmunes River, which has different spots to delight kayakers with various levels of experience. These include turbulent waters for experienced kayakers and gentler spots for less experienced paddlers.
Half Moon Bay For a romantic time while paddling through calm, pristine waters in the moonlight, there is no other place to be than Half Moon Bay. Some paddlers may be lucky enough to see migrating whales and other wildlife while paddling through.
Santa Catalina Island
For multiple day trips and camping, this is one of the best places to be. Kayak tours offer guided multiple-day trips for avid campers and kayakers who also love to fish.
Bodega Harbor and Bay
For those who want to do a little bit of exploration, Bodega Harbor and Bay is the perfect location. Paddlers will get to see sea birds and other forms of wildlife.
Renting tips
Getting the services of kayak tours is useful if you are going with friends or family who have little to no experience in paddling a kayak or if you are not familiar with the location. Most kayak tours in California offer instructions for those who are new to kayaking and have tour guides to accompany groups who are not familiar with the area. Before going on in any kayaking tour with a group, make sure that all members are physically fit enough to kayak. Long paddling trips, especially under the heat of the sun, can be especially strenuous especially in rough water. Also go for kayak tours that offer complete safety gear and guides to visitors. These include personal floatation devices, safety kits, and emergency repair kits.

Kayaking the Texas Coast (Paperback) $33.97 “Few experiences compare with navigating a sea kayak through a large sandy bay lined with oyster-shell beaches, past golden sand dunes into rough ocean waters, then surfing back onto a wind-swept beach at sunset.”—from the Introduction Half of the nearly 400-mile Texas coastline is flanked by barrier islands. Behind them, large and small bays shelter estuarine marshes, oyster-reef communities, and sea grass meadows that teem with wildlife, creating a bird watcher`s and angler`s paradise. For an intimate encounter with these natural treasures, no other water craft can compare to a kayak.   Veteran kayaker John Whorff’s Kayaking the Texas Coast is an essential guide for beginning and experienced kayakers to the many miles of shoreline that surround the shallow bays, lagoons, and islands of the Texas coast. Novices will appreciate this book’s detailed information about where to paddle and camp, what to see, and where to obtain additional information about safety and route planning. Accomplished kayakers will enjoy Whorff’s enticing route descriptions and other pertinent details on paddling the Texas coastline.  Opening with an extended introductory text that covers kayaks and equipment, safety considerations and emergencies, camping dos and don’ts, and helpful resources, Kayaking the Texas Coast also lists useful websites and guidebooks. In the main portion of the text, the coast is organized into ten destinations, from the Galveston Bay complex in the north to Boca Chica State Park in the south. For each of these destinations, Whorff provides information on navigational aids, planning considerations, accommodations, and directions to launch sites before describing various paddling routes within each destination—around seventy routes in all. Each route is ranked for difficulty as “beginner,” &ld |
