Double kayaking on the bay!

I have used just kayak several times and they are always quick to respond/reliable. They always have available rentals Monday-Sunday. We highly recommend them!!

Had the absolute best time ever! It is super easy to book online, someone is prompt in texting you in order for correct arrival / pickup times, super easy returns and so much fun enjoying your time in the water. I got a kayak and my brother got a paddle board rental. There was a discount/promotion when we booked online but their normal prices are already a great deal for an all day rental. The only time limit is their rental hours and how long you can stay out on the water. We met with Carl who brought us our rentals. He was incredibly kind and funny! He helped us bring out our stuff which was pleasant :) We stayed out on the water for about 5 hours (11am to 4pm) because we were just having so much fun. It really is worth your money. They bay there also has pleasant water that didn't get too rocky until late evening. It's great for beginners or someone who just wants to cruise around and just enjoy their time out. Can't wait to go out on kayaks again!

I've called Ben several times. He refuses to give the money unless the review is taken down. I'll see you (ben) in court.

I made the reservation online. Got to the beach 5min early. We were all ready to go. I called at the time of the reservation to let them know I was waiting with my family. they told me they would be 30 seconds away. I saw them arrive and waited for them to get them out. They were helping someone out so I let them finish. Until I saw the guy just talking to the other people and flirting with the girls. I waited for over 20min for him to help us and he didn't. I finally called and told him I was watching him flirt with the group of girls. He finally come over to help us. At that point we were all frustrated so we canceled the reservation after wasting our time. After all was said and done. They called at 8pm to ask to remove the bad review. So apparently leaving a bad review for bad experience is NOT allowed. That makes me wonder, how many of the five star reviews are bought or how many bad views were taken down after people were not pleased with their experience with them. That they would rather remove them instead of being harassed. Edit: DONT HIRE THEM! SCAMMERS ! They don't want to refund the money. After canceling with them. I am currently suing Ben. Horrible service. They only have 5 stars because they tell people they need to removed the bad review if they want a refund back. HONESTLY DON'T HIRE THEM!

So relaxing

Five Stars!!! We rented on a weekend and had such a great experience. The pick up was so easy and they were kind enough to explain everything in detail to us since it was our first time. They also had waterproof phone cases which came in handy for us to bring it out to water. We were out there for a long time but it felt so short because of all the fun we see having. The guys are also so quick to respond to emails if you have any questions. Will definitely be back again.

I had such a good, relaxing time paddling that I never even took my phone out of my dry bag. So, I saw some amazing birds, some sea lions, some nice boats, and watched the windsurfers- but I just enjoyed the sights rather than trying to capture them in a digital image. Hence my photo. JustKayak staff were super friendly and helpful. And then they let me take the kayak for a spin until 7pm. Yup. I could have paddled from 10am-7pm for $50. Places nearby were charging 30-$40 for two hours. Personally, I feel rushed when I'm given two hours. Picking up the kayak and dropping it off was super easy. Found free street parking and walked to the water, they brought the kayak and paddle and life jacket to me. Dropping it off was easy too. I called them to let them know I was back, and they came and got the kayak in less than 6 minutes. Just wear sunscreen, lol. Lesson learned, again. I will definitely rent from them again, and I highly recommend them.

So much fun for the littles too!

Had a blast kayaking in missions bay even durning Covid-19! The team at Just Kayak are amazing! Easy to book, easy to meet, quality equipment! Make sure you pack a lunch and lots of sunscreen! With the all day rental you can see a lot and stop at some of the beach's to relax! Definitely will be back soon!

Had a 4pm reservation, was running a little late but they were super accommodating! By the time we got there, they had the kayak ready to go. We had a few things on us and they offered to watch it for us so our stuff wouldn't get wet. They also offer waterproof phone cases and dry bags to take stuff with you on the kayak! Overall great experience! Definitely coming back.

Nancy E.

Absolutely amazing service. I planned a last minute beach day with my family and Lauren did not disappoint. They dropped it off right on time at the beach. Very friendly and helpful crew. Would definitely go back again!!!!

Natalia M.

Very friendly. Excellent service. First time paddle boarding they took time to give us some pointers.

Double kayak, 2 life vests, 2 paddles. All great quality and smooth.
Joey M.

Best experience, and great price especially for first time kayaking. I plan on going again and bringing more friends for another awesome kayak workout! PS. They also give a quick demonstration on how to use, and being back the equipment. For beginners this is definitely a plus because if not I probably would have tipped everything over! Thank you for a great experience

Kelly Anne M.

Such a great day! Worth the price for all day use. We stayed out exploring the bay for about 5 hours and loved it. Easy to book, called when we were close to the beach, kayaks dropped off and we were off! They have single and doubles, with plenty of space to bring snacks and drinks in the kayaks, and life preservers included in each. Super easy and fun. Totally recommend.

Awesome family experience!!
Janice S.

Great personable staff & excellent customer service! Definitely recommend! I called last minute and was able to organize! They met met up with me & gave me tips on how to use the paddle board!

Paddle board ready!
Jessica Y.

Had a great day on the bay, despite the pandemic! The guys were super helpful in getting us set up, and we were ready to hit the water in no time. Super easy drop off and pick up. Highly recommend!

Fun memories other the fam!

Kayak rental info says minimum age is 8. Can a child under 8 ride with an adult?

Hi thank you for your inquiry. Yes due to safety and insurance purposes, we ask that all paddlers be 8 years or older.

My bf and I were convinced that we would fall in, but it was actually quite simple to get the hang of it. We had an absolutely wonderful time.

It was absolutely worth the price, and I am so glad we connected with Vicki for all the helpful tips she gave us. She was awesome. They accept card, cash, or venmo.

We were free to wander and wander we did. It was choppy waters and boats were everywhere, but we loved it. I highly recommend this company to anyone!

Sam is friendly & easy to vibe with, a great teacher for total newbies. She coaches humans & dogs the same, encouraging and upbeat without ever feeling awkward.

They had a blast swimming back & forth between my board & Sam's, and hanging out on the front of my board taking in our surroundings. Even with my reactive pup, we felt safe and confident and she looked happier than she's ever been. Sam helped us build a new layer of trust & confidence that I'm so excited to keep leaning into.

Not to mention being in the dog community, so many people have recommended them. First off, it's a great location in Liberty Station and parking was no problem. Bathrooms were easily accessible, either the park ones or the hotel ones. Second, Sam is amazing, you can really tell she loves her job and pups. She brings the energy and explains things very well. Turns out my dog loves paddle boarding and swimming and I also built my confidence in handling the board. We had such a fun time and I love that Sam started this business. Another plus is all the photos that are taken during the experience that are included with the lesson. I highly recommend and am looking forward to participating in some of their events!

A friend of of ours volunteered to be our captain for the day, and a group of nine of us packed up some lunches and headed out of a little adventure. Seaforth was reasonably priced. Our friend was even able to find a discount coupon online when he booked the boat. We were a bit worried about the weather when we booked, as it had been raining a lot recently. Seaforth offers a 3-day cancellation period, but after that we were on the hook rain or shine. We were lucky that the weather obliged, and we did not have to cancel. Seaforth was professional. Our friend arrived early to check us in and we all met at the dock. The staff member came to the boat to sign us all in, go over safety information, and help to push us out. I feel that they were professional and timely. I like that they also do the cleaning and re-fueling so that we could just focus on having a good time. I think our friend did comment on the fact that the boat was a bit on the older side, which I had also noticed as compared to some of the boats we had rented in the past. Also, I noticed a small hole in the sail, but it did not seem to impact the ability for the sail to catch wind. All in all, it was a great day out on the water and I would definitely rent from Seaforth again.

But this is the right way to do it, esp with these frequently rented vehicles that can easily sustain minor damages if handled carelessly. The dude at the dock is also very helpful in helping you ride away from and approach the dock, the latter of which can be a little tricky. Other jetski rental services in the area have been far less clear and professional in my experience. And why deal with the choppy waves and high traffic of the Coronado area. Mission Bay's where it's at yo! And that makes this the go-to for some of the best jetskiing you can experience in SD and I'd say SoCal in general. Thank you guys for making my 11 yr old's birthday one to remember! (This is all he wanted to do lol)
