No advanced experience is required—guides provide a safety briefing and basic paddle instruction; moderate fitness helps.
Sea lions are common in the area and often encountered at Seal Rock, but wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed.
Quick-drying layers, a hat, reef-safe sunscreen, and water shoes are recommended; bring a light jacket for cooler mornings.

The coastline was historically used by Tongva and Acjachemen peoples and later became a hub for artists and early 20th-century coastal development.
This coastline includes marine-protected areas and operators follow no-approach rules to minimize disturbance, so avoid touching wildlife, trampling eelgrass, or leaving trash.
