This is a first class kayaking outfitter. Just got off the water from a kayak tour. All of their…read moregear is top-notch and obviously well cared for. Also, they give you exactly what is needed to paddle in Trinidad so you remain warm & comfy. I was so impressed with our guides, Nick and Alex, and their local knowledge of seabirds, marine mammals, and intertidal species. Whales are cool, but there are also a lot of other really cool animals & birds in Trinidad Bay. And these guides know just where to take you. They were not afraid to take us into a little rougher waters, when we asked them to, likely because they are so skilled and experienced. I also really appreciated all of the paddling guidance they provided making sure I was using my core/legs more than my arms. I was with a very large group and the guides handled everything with such class and professionalism. It is a step above any outfitter I've ever paddled with. We are really lucky to have them in Trinidad to help us access some of the most fantastic coastline along the California coast. They also do a great job interpreting the California Coastal National Monument! All of those rocks and islands are part of a statewide national monument that runs from the Oregon border south to Mexico! Wow! What a treasure. Thank you Kayak Trinidad for providing A+++ service where it is needed and appreciated!

Highly recommend their 3 hour wildlife tour! Thank you!

First of all, the scencery is absolutely stunning. It's pretty easy to drive through the park and pop out at scenic spots for a view of the ocean (such as Wedding Rock, so named as a beautiful spot for a wedding). There's also wonderful hiking, including the Rim Trail and the path down to Agate Beach. Also... beachcombing camping learning about the history of the area at the Visitor Center biking nature photography and much more! There is an entrance fee; however, if you avail yourself of the California State Park Library Pass, it's free! Either way, definitely worth a vist.

Spectacular view for a girl from LA…read more I planned a roadtrip to visit all the gloomy coastal cities up north and this park beach truly delivered. It is nothing like the beaches in SoCal which is everything that I wanted to experience. I enjoyed how cool the weather was and the smells of the clean, crisp air. It was just under $10 to visit for the day and we spent about an hour solely taking in the views. Overall, highly recommend if you are in this neck of the woods.

It was drizzling, but, I've been here a few times before on sunny days. NorCal beaches don't get SoCal scale beach crowds so parking is a breeze. No one really sets up for the day with their cooler either, even on the hottest of days here. It's calm and peaceful. There are small hidden tide pools nearby too. They're hard to find, but, we've located them twice now, so it can't be that hard.

I recommend backpacks so you can keep your hands free. You will see many different people here from those taking advantage of the clothing optional experience or those taking a much needed smoke break with their bong (as it is Humboldt after all) or those attempting body boarding. You can also observe tide pools with beautiful sea creatures in them. Overall it is a nice place to come and relax just take your time on the trek back up to the mini parking lot.

I was a part of the NAUI Certification program with Luke and Dan as primary instructors. They are a…read morededicated pair of experienced divers and it shows in their teaching. The introductory portion of the course is the roughest part: Finding contact information for these two instructors, determining necessary gear, and figuring out payment and first meet times. This is a no bullshit program. If you're planing on learning to dive, they will take you through it quickly and efficiently and you must pay attention and do what you need to do to practice and understand what they teach you in the most efficient way possible. There are 4 Pool sessions and 4 open water dives. They do their in class sessions in their Dive Locker, Pool sessions at Arcata Community Pool and they provide appropriate gear: Buoyancy Compensator, Regulator, Weight Belt(s), filled scuba tanks (except for open water evolution), compass Open Water Evolution (OWE) only, and necessities that may arise suddenly. You need to acquire: Ocean Swimming Fins, Mask, Snorkel, Booties, Slate, Gloves, Dive Watch, Dive Knife, Rash-guard & Board shorts (not a bikini or a speedo). You will need to rent a 7mm wetsuit for the OWE (~$85). That being said, these two are a wonderful and caring pair of instructors. Dan can be likened to a grandpa, encouraging and patient, nudging you along through the course, making sure you're okay and helping the stragglers feel safe and encouraged. Luke is a gruff guy and he pulls the course along at a rapid pace and expects a brisk and appropriate response at every turn. He won't coddle you and he expects you to stand on your own feet and figure it out, but will always lend a hand when you need it. Both of these gents are aware, attentive and caring and if any situation comes up they will do their utmost to address it and keep everyone safe and together. I always felt safe around them and comfortable at any point to tell either of them about gear malfunctions, ask for help, or ask questions when they arose. Also, I was a student unable to get into the HSU Intro Scuba course (waitlisted) and when I failed to get into the course decided to get my certification so that I could take the Advanced Scuba and Scientific Diving classes with the HSU program before graduation. If you find yourself in a similar situation, talk to Alpha Diving about this scenario. They were able to provide an extra pool session and 2 extra dives for us (2 other students) to practice underwater navigation and prepare us for the Advanced HSU course and the instructors at HSU will accept this. These guys are a great place to learn to dive and give you a sense for what diving is all about in the real world. If you're looking for a touristy easy program, this is not it so prepare yourself for what you're getting into. (I highly recommend being in relatively decent shape before taking the course.) Try to always remember that Diving is a dangerous skill to acquire but constant vigilance and perseverance and you will prevail.
