He took us to the wildlife reserve and let us see birds, fish, crabs, with his binoculars. It was such a great experience. Will definitely be going to him again. Very affordable, and you can go out on your own if you want. Thank you so much for a great day Harry!

They sell a good variety of clothing and accessories, and we decided to get some eyeglass leashes. After stowing our stuff in the free lockers, we met our group on the beach a short walk away. We were a group of 3 tandem kayaks, led by Ciro, a very experienced and knowledgeable guide. Kayaking along the coast and into some actual sea caves was exhilarating, as was wiping out on the way back in, which apparent is quite common. We did well on our way out, but one couple capsized both on the way out and in. I's not the end of the world if you do, as there are staff to help you on both ends. Afterwards Ciro provided a foot bath to rinse off our sandy feet, with was a nice touch. We had a great time; would definitely seek them out again should we want another outing.

The National City Aquatic Center is a hidden gem in this part of town! Often, people forget that…read moreNational City is also "waterfront"! The Port of San Diego has done a great job of making this area seem less "industrial" with not just cargo ship unloading, transport hubs, and shipyard maintenance but rather areas that families and the general public can come enjoy. In particular, this review is of the Multi-Purpose Room at the Aquatic Center. A lot of my guests were quite surprised and impressed with the building (built in 2018) and this facility as an event rental space. I even had a few inquiries asking how much I paid. FYI- it was only ~$300 for 6 hours + the price of a security guard. We held my twins' 1st birthday party here. The facility comes equipped with a half kitchen (no refrigeration or kitchen, just a sink), clean private bathroom/locker facilities, tables/chairs for ~80 guests (room can definitely fit a little more), floor to ceiling windows, a TV with Blue Ray Player and access to streaming (you provide the internet), access to Pepper Park, and ample parking. You can also pay extra for reserved parking, custodial maintenance, and more security if needed. Genevieve and Sheila with the Port Facilities reservations department were a pleasure to work with - they were responsive, answered my questions, and were patient with some of our requests. They also allow all vendors, provided they have proper insurance, and do not require usage of any sort of preferred list. My only gripe is that because there's no separate kitchen facility, you'll need to plan your catering in order to keep food stocked and warm/cold. There's a little outdoor space that looks like a fenced in yard-- they should consider turning that into a kitchenette. I'd pay extra to use that. One of the highlights is that there's a great view of the sunset over the coast that many of my guests got to enjoy toward the end of the party. A nice treat for a crisp fall evening! There's a marina, parks, a hotel, and restaurants in this general area west of the 5 freeway. Highly recommend considering this venue for any smaller events. You can always spill into Pepper Park if you need more space.

I also follow National City, and noticed they offered youth summer camps for rowing, kayaking, and SUP. Talking with Dave Frost, the contact for Community Rowing SD, National City is primed to start their own rowing club. He was excited to hear we found them and looks forward to growth in the coming years for the area. I have always wanted to try rowing out and am glad I did. Coach Aly was a blast to work with. She took me and a friend out on single sculls and followed us in a kayak, offering us encouragement and suggestions. She's an athlete through and through and was an easy conversationalist with and enthusiasm for all sports. I'm excited for what the aquatic center will offer in the coming years as the South Bay doesn't have much yet and would be an awesome place to get something running.

The equipment is in great condition, and they always make sure you're set up and ready to go. Aqua Adventures has become a go-to spot for me and my friends, and I couldn't recommend it more.

We…read morewere even able to adjust our start time by a bit as we ran a tad late and appreciate that they were dog friendly, although disclaiming that no dog vests or human vests are provided We unfortunately didn't have the best SUP experience. Our boards didn't seem to be in the best shape, all 3 of them would frequently submerge in water. I've never experienced that with other SUP rentals. This is a wake zone so boats will constantly be coming to and fro on top of the tides (which are understandably uncontrollable) so it made for a challenging time. The individual who set us up was going to give our friend who hasn't paddleboarded before a very quick run down, but got distracted by other people inquiring so we were left a bit puzzled to take off by ourselves We also requested only one hour, but when pricing was requested, the two hour rate was requested. I took the individuals word so we went ahead and paid, but I realized after the fact that it was for 2 hours and so they said they couldn't refund us right there and then, but if we were to just take an hour we could reach back out, but it seemed a bit burdensome
