Here are images from a recent outing with tour-company Mendocino Kayaking.
You can find the company website here. In this instance, we paddled south from Van Damme State Beach and cruised through some sea caves and rock gardens, enjoying the ocean, the sea life, the rock formations, and the excitement of such an outing on a fine, if overcast day. As I can attest from years of going out on such tours, Craig Comen and his guides are friendly, knowledgeable, and safety-conscious. The sit-on-top kayaks are easy to paddle also. Fun for the whole family at very reasonable rates. Check out Mendocino Kayaking for yourself.
