Kayaking
Whether you're looking for an adventure exploring sea caves or just a serene float past
coastal bluffs or along inland rivers, kayaking opportunities abound in coastal California.
Few water-based sports are as accessible and fun for the whole family, and most people
manage to get paddling along quickly with minimal instruction.
Best Places to Kayak
Sea kayaking is fabulous in
Channel Islands National Park
, offshore from Ventura, and
Catalina Island
, closer to Los Angeles and Orange County. Both are ideal overnight get-
aways for experienced paddlers.
