The…read moreinstructor Tom was very knowledgeable of paddle boarding which made all the difference for my kids. In just one day, they went from beginners to confident paddlers, gliding across the water with big smiles on their faces. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking to start paddle boarding, especially families with kids. The lesson was tailored to their needs, and Tom made sure everyone felt comfortable and supported every step of the way. Booking the lesson was a breeze, Will was super friendly and informative. The location at Sunset Beach is perfect, with stunning views and calm waters ideal for learning. Can't wait to come back and paddle again!"

She made sure we had everything we needed and gave great instructions. Sorry we didn't catch her name. The best part of this excursion was that they're dog friendly and of course we opted to get a doggy captain hat! Thankfully my husband is a good driver but it looked simple enough. I also recommend getting an early time slot bc we were almost the only ones in the water. I think I'd be more nervous if the water was crowded like later in the day. We really enjoyed our experience and would definitely come back again!

The location is perfect, it's right by the bay and they always have kayaks and paddleboards ready for you by the water. Parking isn't ideal (it's Newport Beach, so this is expected) so be prepared to pay and park. I love how smooth and easy booking and reservations are. You book online through their website and it's always simple, straightforward, and easy to do. You can add things like the waterproof phone things (or add when you get there in person). They also send your waivers and such ahead of time so you can sign them ahead of time so that when you get to the location, you literally just get on the kayak/paddleboard and go. The workers here are always really chill, nice, and welcoming. They offer amenities like the waterproof necklaces you can wear to bring your phones along (can confirm - they work). They're not super strict on time, and I like the added hose they have outside their building that you can use to hose down the sand and such if needed. Just be aware that they don't offer much by way of instructions so if you're a first-timer, watch a video or two ahead of time. I do think it's a little intuitive so I wouldn't worry too much. Life vests are also provided!

Had a very bad experience here. It was my first time kayaking and I was really excited, but it…read moreturned out extremely disappointing. The staff were not helpful at all. They didn't give us any instructions on how to use the kayak, which is especially important for beginners. There was one staff member at the launch area, and when we were trying to get into the water, no one helped us push the kayak. What made it worse was that one staff member inside the shop pointed at us and laughed, and the staff by the shore joined in. It felt very disrespectful and unprofessional. Overall, a very poor experience. Definitely would not come back.

The business was sort of hidden/hard to find, so we gave them a call and they were able to point us in the right direction. Once we were there, paying and getting on the kayak was super easy! They also have lockers for rent for $5 for your whole trip. This place is also dog-friendly! The dunes itself was very pleasant to kayak around and easy to navigate. We went around 9:30am, so it wasn't super busy nor was it super hot. It felt perfect breezy! Super fun experience, and I would highly recommend them!

Park for free on the street, walk up to the hut in your swimsuit and flip flops and water bottle and you are set to go baby! They will take an ID from you and direct you to the beach shore where an employee will set you up in a one or two person kayak, show you the correct way to paddle, and push you off. Go to the left and under the bridge and you are in the calm waters of Dune Bay. Want more excitement--then go to the right into the marina and battle the currents--that's how you build arm strength! and courage keeping your distance from the boats. We did both and had a great time. When you return--look for the Return Here sign, paddle hard and beach the craft, and an employee will hold the kayak while you get out. Go back to the hut and get your ID back and pay. Most peeps stay out 1-2 hours. After 2 hours your arms are tired unless you just go into Dune Bay and relax and let the current take you wherever. After you pay go to the foot wash off to get the sand off, then walk to the restrooms and full out door fresh water shower. You did it! Tell all your friends that you got away from the Pirates! ---------- Just some notes: 1. Make sure you go to the restroom Before getting in the kayak--there are no restrooms on board (or food service). 2. And wear a swimsuit--I have never been on a kayak where you don't sit in a puddle of water and get splashed a bit. 3. And NEVER stand up in the kayak--it will turn over. 4. Do not kayak during a hurricane even if the Pirates say it's okay.

I bought a Living Social Deal for this place but sadly I could not redeem. I was trying to make…read morereservations and the owner told me that his paddleboards were missing because someone did not return them for a few days. I was a little sad because I paid $10 per person for a 1 hour paddleboard session, which in my opinions, is the cheapest deal I've seen! The owner, Mike, was so kind to email and text me to let me know what had happened. He was super nice!! He said that he would give me a full refund for the two tickets that I purchased, and also, give me free kayak rentals since there was a bit of a dilemma. I took up on that offer, emailed Mike, and made reservations to do a tandem kayak for an hour on a Sunday at noon. Mike is all about customer service and wants to make customers satisfied so he offered to throw in another hour for free! My sister and I got to the beach, with the help of Mike's perfect directions, and we laid out for about an hour. We got side street parking! (FREE!) Mike came 2 minutes before noon and unloaded our kayaks. He was so nice to give us some ziplock bags to put our phones in so they don't get wet. My sister and I had a blast! Although it was a bit windy so we were going against the wind! We kayaked for about an hour and 15 minutes. Too bad we couldn't do the two hours. It is definitely a great arm workout! Once we were done, I just texted Mike and docked our kayaks on the beach and that was it! I would definitely come here again! Hope you get your kayaks back soon!!

You can take a loop from the Jetty to the Balboa and Newport Piers and back. This will take aabout an hour If you just cruise. Overall, I am a fan and then some!+
