A Great and Must Do Activity! - Friendly, and knowledgeable staff. My wife was a bit nervous about kayaking in the ocean but their instructions were simple and clear, and made the whole experience comfortable and enjoyable. The paddling wasn't difficult, the views and feeling of being in the ocean were incredible. We will definitely book again.

Just go do the tour, its worth it! - We had a perfect day to do the 7 caves tour. We arrived in advance per the instructions, got fitted for gear, did our safety brief and paddled out. The group was a ton of fun and our guide really made the trip worth it. I highly recommend Bike and Kayak Tours over other guides. They had their stuff together and contributed to a great trip!

Fun tour with professional, friendly staff - We had an amazing tour! The service was great, and the staff was professional and friendly. Bike and Kayak organized a kayaking adventure for our Girl Scout troop and their moms. Marcella was incredibly generous and welcoming. Our gear was clean and well-organized, and the staff provided clear instructions on safety and kayaking techniques.
Safety was a top priority, and our girls, some of whom were first-time kayakers, felt confident and excited about their adventure. Marcella led an excellent tour to the caves and shared her extensive knowledge about the history and ecosystem of the area. We were even lucky enough to see a pod of dolphins!
By the end of our tour, all the girls were confidently paddling their kayaks ashore with big smiles on their faces. I highly recommend Bike and Kayak for a fantastic experience!

Fantastic Kayaking Experience - Kayaking was an absolutely great experience. Seeing LJS from a whole new perspective was truly memorable. I highly recommend this activity not just for visitors, but also for locals looking for a unique adventure.
The team was incredibly professional and welcoming, making sure that everyone, especially kids, felt comfortable and safe throughout the trip. Everything was very well-organized, and their guidance made the experience very enjoyable.

Fun tour with my daughter - We did a tour with moms and daughters and it was such an amazing experience! The staff was very knowledgeable and made sure to keep us safe since we were novice kayakers. We went again with friends the next month because we had such a great experience. I highly recommend this company!

Fun - "We had a really fun experience on the kayak trip with the kids. They had an absolute blast! The adventure on the water was a hit with them, and they enjoyed the scenery and nature.
However, there were two things that made us feel a bit uncomfortable. Firstly, the price was a bit steep for our budget. Although we understand that the experience was worth it, we think they could offer more affordable options for families.
Secondly, the sun was a bit too intense for the kids. Since they're not used to so much sun, they ended up a bit exhausted and with headaches. It would be great if the company offered more shade or sun protection for participants.
Overall, the experience was really fun, and the kids enjoyed it immensely. With some adjustments to the price and sun protection, we think this kayak trip could be even better.
Rating: 4/5 stars
Recommendation: Ideal for families looking for a fun adventure on the water. However, it's essential to consider the price and sun protection for kids."

Ask if you can actually do the caves - We were unable to see the caves since they had already filled with water. Seemed like this is common, so check before booking. We just kayaked out into the ocean and back to shore. You will get wet, plan accordingly. Guide was great however, just conditions were not ideal.
