Description
Step into a different pace of San Diego life with our guided kayak tour that drifts through the serene estuary waters of South Bay. Paddle through the wetlands in our signature crystal-clear kayaks as you discover a side of Chula Vista most people never get to see — where wildlife, water, and wonder meet.
This experience is designed for the curious, the calm-seekers, and anyone craving a little wild in their weekend. No two tours are the same — the tide shifts, birds migrate, and nature writes the story. Whether you're a local or just visiting, you’ll leave with a new perspective of the land... and maybe even a heron selfie.
True to nature. Chula by nature.
