Great place to rent kayaks
Great employees from shop to beach crew. Great afternoon on the water with kayak rentals that were easy, quick and no nonsense.

Huntington Beach Kayak Rentals
Huntington Beach Kayak Rentals
Looking for something fun to do in Huntington Beach? Rent a single or double kayak and explore the calm waters of Huntington Harbour at your own pace.
We launch directly from our private beach access at 11th Street Beach, making it easy to get on the water. You’ll get a quick kayaking lesson before you head out, no experience necessary.
Paddle through peaceful harbor channels with views of luxury homes, docked boats, and nearby wildlife. You’re right next to the Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge and Hog Island, so don’t be surprised if you spot sea birds or the occasional curious seal.
All renters must be able to swim comfortably. Kayak rentals are available for guests ages 5 and up, and include all gear.
Huntington Beach Kayak Rentals
Our kayak rentals give you 90 minutes to cruise around the harbor at your own pace. We’ll provide all the equipment you’ll need, along with a safety briefing so you know where you can and can’t go. You’ll just need to check in at our shop, and kayaks and paddles will be waiting for you at the beach!
Depending on the conditions, kayak rentals may not be available. Be sure to call to make a reservation or check for availability.

Huntington Beach Kayak Rentals FAQ
Each time block is set for 90 minutes. If you’d like extra time, please reserve the
next available time block.
Sea Kayaking takes place in the beautiful ocean, which has one major difference from freshwater kayaking: Kayak Surfing! When returning to land in a Sea Kayak, you get the opportunity to catch and ride a wave all the way in.
We've had tons of people who have never kayaked before and don't know how to swim that had amazing experiences. However, if your activity includes snorkeling, then by state regulations you do need to be comfortable in the water.
No experience is required to come on a tour! We’ve had everyone from children to senior citizens who are first time kayakers come out and have a blast on one of our kayak adventures.
We transport the kayaks and paddles down to the beach. All you need to do is check-in at our shop, and walk down to the beach with your life jacket.
No. Due to city rules and insurance regulations, the kayak rentals must stay at La Jolla Shores.
We kayak in a Marine Protected Area, so nothing can be taken but photos. We will paddle and snorkel with sea life, and take direction from The Marine Protection Act of 1972.
Absolutely! La Jolla is one of the best snorkeling spots in California. If you go on a tour with us, we’ll even give you a great discount on snorkel gear. Just ask us if you want to try!
We use tandem sit-on-top kayaks because they are safer and more fun!
The weight limit for each kayak is 425lbs / 193kg. If the combined weight of you and your partner is close to 415lbs, we recommend purchasing two (2) single kayaks instead of a tandem kayak.
The city of San Diego and the San Diego lifeguards have set the age requirement at 5 years and older.
There is plenty of parking in the residential streets surrounding our shop where you can park all day. Do not park in the lot adjacent to our shop: we don't own it, so if you park there you run the risk of being towed. We also do not recommend parking in a 90 minute commercial zone, as you will be here longer than that and will run the risk of getting ticketed.
We have lockers available for rent (they're $6) if you want to leave your stuff behind. If you don’t want to rent a locker we recommend keeping your valuables in your car.
