"Here I was, kayaking for the first time and I'm 50! Apprehensively, I slid into the kayak and started paddling- it was the start of a journey that became one of the best adventures in my life."
"The food exceeded my expectations by far and I have 12+ years experience in the restaurant business. I was most impressed with the under water life. . . I saw an octopus, a spiny lobster, rays, sea cucumbers, jelly fish and hundreds of tropical fish."
"This was the best trip of my life! The crew was awesome; the guides were all very attentive and informative. Yoga in the morning and evening helped us stay stretched out and limber. Diane and her yoga expertise dialed into what we needed physically, emotionally and spiritually. It was magical. A highlight was watching the sun come up over the Sea of Cortez from a limestone bluff while the guides brought us coffee and tea – it was awe-inspiring!"
"This trip far exceeded my expectations. The location and wildlife were great, and the kayaking, which I had never done before, was a blast, but by far the most wonderful thing about the trip was the guides. All three of them are such special people: so knowledgeable, kind, funny, strong and on and on - just really great people that I am so happy to have now as friends."
"The trip exceeded every expectation. On a scale of 1-10, this trip was a 20! From the initial reservation to the farewell dinner, every detail was handled professionally, promptly and enthusiastically. SKA is a tremendous organization."
"Gabriel and Sil,words cannot express the wonderful experience you have given us on our first Patagonia adventure. Thank you for sharing the mysteries of your land and sea, as well as your foods and friends. Your kindness holds a special place in our hearts. We so appreciate all of the special efforts you both performed to fascilate our comfort and expanded knowledge of this incredible place. "
"The trip was more than I expected. It was a total immersion in a wonderful place. Scenery, marine life & climate - all were intense. This was exactly the adventure I was looking for."
"All three guides were exceptional. They did a great job of keeping the group informed, were very sensitive to individual needs and abilities, very conscientious about safety, enthusiastic, great cooks, wonderful personalities and helpful instructors."
"The trip was great. We enjoyed kayaking in such a beautiful area, going out to see the orcas, the wildlife and great guides. The food was superb and we liked the attention paid to specific food requests. The lodge staff were excellent and very customer oriented. Having rooms made up every day was great."
"This trip was an excellent investment of time and money. I would recommend Sea Kayak Adventures to anyone interested in exploring our natural environment"
"We have left our happy footprints on your coasts and part of our hearts with always remain in Patagonia. We cannot thank you enough for making this trip so wonderful."
"I have been home for a week from your Sea of Cortez Islands tour in Loreto Bay National Marine Park in April 2010, but my feet have yet to touch the ground. I can't put into words how wonderful our trip was. The beautiful backdrop, the knowledgeable guides and the interaction with nature was better than we imagined. We are already looking at booking next year's trip - watch for my emails. "
"The whales were the highlight of the trip, but the rest of it was also great…it is a beautiful area and the guides were terrific. The most enjoyable part was watching the whales from our campsite and being so close to them"
"I don't think you could find another outfitter that works as hard to ensure their guests have the kayaking experience that they've dreamed of. All 3 of my SKA tours were sublime."
Linda Eberle Baja & Canada tour veteran
"I loved the trip and it exceeded my expectations. It was an incredibly wonderful experience that I highly recommend to others. The whales are a definite highlight, but the relaxed pace of exploring nature and enjoying all aspects of it, from the bird life to the constellations, all make it a stimulating and inspiring experience."
"I was impressed with the organization of SKA down to every detail. You guys really run a responsible, tightly managed outfit. I also enjoyed paddling alongside the dolphins and the whale watching excursion (I was lucky enough to pet a whale). The memories will last long after the Teva suntan stripes on my feet fade."
"For our group the Baja trip was one of the most outstanding experiences we've ever had. I could go on and on. You have got some tip-top fabulous and most delightful guides. They are skilled, knowledgeable, kind and very wise about taking care of folks. You have our highest praise for the guides and for the trip planning"
