NileGuide Expert tip:
If you're a more experienced kayaker, check out Quest's surf kayaking classes.
Description:
Venture Quest lets you rent your own kayaks and hit the open ocean on your own, but it's highly recommended that you jump on a guided tour to make the most of your time paddling. Tours include an easy kayak to Lighthouse Point, a popular surf spot and otter hang out. Another truly special experience is a tour of the Elkhorn Slough, a natural sanctuary and an ecosystem teaming with wildlife. There are sunset tours, whale watching tours, a sea cave exploration near Wilder Ranch and, if you're up for it, a 5-day kayak quest. Venture Quest offers something for kayakers of all levels and truly wants adventurers to have an excellent experience.
