Goodness. Our growing family is so beautiful and loving the water. Check out Dylan paddling his own boat for the first time at age 3 1/2. Pretty amazing. I am so proud of him. Siena has been thru caves already a few times at 1 year old and Magda is loving the SUP paddles thru the caves as well. Guests have been treated to amazing trip thru the caves channels and rock gardens and I really think the best time of year is approaching. kayak Mendocino loves to share the magic of Little River headlands and the amazing offshore rock formations.kayak mendocinohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16700559912657761466noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-991856883016899066.post-88039163396528489702012-02-15T16:32:00.000-08:002012-02-15T16:37:38.596-08:00Perfect playgroundsWe love where we are and what we do.

WE PADDLED OUT TO THE BOUY AND CHECKED OUT THE SEA LIONS, made a gigantic loop, viewing the headlands, blowholes, and shorebirds.

We are not paddling much, but have had a few classic days in between big swells and rain. We are happy to get out there whenever anyone wants to, and the sea caves and channels are working. I am missing the big smiles and stoke of all of you that paddled with us this year, and I hope to share the magic again in 2011 on the water at the Little River coves. We will be ready for you and can always show you something new and exciting on the Mendocino coast.

Our Dog Onyx has paddled twice and Dylan now is a veteran at 20 months. Everyone is stoked and really enjoying. Even the foggy 2 months was incredible. We are looking forward to the fall and the clear cool days and amazing crispy views. The kelp is thick and beautiful, the seals plump and happy, and the caves as splendid as ever.

As many times as I have done this, it still gets better and better. Each paddler brings a new outlook and smile to the caves and channels and I love the expressions as we enter the first tunnel. he weather has been a challenge, but we have forecast perfectly and not had to cancel any trips. Here are some images from my friend Chuck Graham on a recent visit up from Santa Barbara. Pretty awesome. Come experience it for yourself.We will be happy to cater to whatever need you have.

We are loving it and have had a blast on the rivers and at the caves and coves of little River. My wife Magdalena has even gotten into Sup paddling and really inspiring others to get out there. Tours are running daily through the Sea caves and we can customize anything you want. Mendocino has the best paddling in Cali, and really some of the best in the world. Come say hi and try out a SUP or sit on top kayak through the mystical (ha ha) caves and channels.

These wide and stable boards allow for paddling either standing, prone, sitting, or kneeling. we will offer tours, lessons and rentals and cannot wait to share this with you. It is a great work out, and offers a unique perspective of being on the water.

We have had some great trips, mostly just checking the sea caves out and letting the winter surf crash inside of them. I would like to thank everyone who came out with us this last year and all our great restaurants and Inns that sent paddlers our way. it is great to work with the likes of Little River Inn, Glendeven inn, Surf Motel, Beachcomber Motel and so many more to name a few. happy Holidays. This photo is of our pet fossilized whale, where the blowhole is. It is only 10 minutes max paddling from our launch at Little River Cove at Van Damme State Park. I think it is amazing and if in Australia wopuld be a national monument.Come check it out, when our Sea Cave Nature tours start up again in late february. We look forward to greeeting all the visitors to the Mendocino/Fort Bragg coast and taking them on an amazing kayak trip.kayak mendocinohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16700559912657761466noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-991856883016899066.post-58740143313035741972009-09-09T11:54:00.000-07:002009-09-09T11:59:00.561-07:00Summer/Fall/ kayaking in Mendocino<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpcgkpZQepUFmnuLEG1OGEmYAQQBwnlglZ01U1sVOMrqkJ7Cpkl4Wb3bVY_ySCsq0rTqDpa_l37Xe1WWKDVAodTrXHbTDqGguGsye3kvdfIFuBNddA_Y9thugYp_qCzSw05s3XlTtyXna1/s1600-h/P7260064.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpcgkpZQepUFmnuLEG1OGEmYAQQBwnlglZ01U1sVOMrqkJ7Cpkl4Wb3bVY_ySCsq0rTqDpa_l37Xe1WWKDVAodTrXHbTDqGguGsye3kvdfIFuBNddA_Y9thugYp_qCzSw05s3XlTtyXna1/s320/P7260064.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379544034514400434" /></a><br />aMAZING SUMMER WE HAD AND NOW FALL IS HERE.

Check out this photo of the bay back in the logging days. We launch right here and go through this headland pictured. So cool. Kayak Mendocino is so happy to share this journey with everyone and we hope you can make it on on of our sea cave tours soon. Dylan my 7 month old son has been out twice now and loves it as well. Still a little time until he paddles, but I will be patient with him. Give us a call, and come check out the magic as we glide over the seaweeds and giant kelp forest, and go back in time to see the geology and animal life as it was thousands of years ago.kayak mendocinohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16700559912657761466noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-991856883016899066.post-66026146790637973572009-06-01T16:59:00.000-07:002009-06-01T17:02:49.119-07:00kayak mendocino family<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdEvJlpFUxoLMCbfqiruc4sAZSqehLfGJIRRETUp5CMRHVIWXSBwUsSuh8yUrQYws2T7BkZKN1_GFFg0vmxwktNnYk5mM4u5wkBC2ex6VRipbZjkXILjCSkCR1ABQEnwxFlzwqpuvQ_7IX/s1600-h/momdylancave.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdEvJlpFUxoLMCbfqiruc4sAZSqehLfGJIRRETUp5CMRHVIWXSBwUsSuh8yUrQYws2T7BkZKN1_GFFg0vmxwktNnYk5mM4u5wkBC2ex6VRipbZjkXILjCSkCR1ABQEnwxFlzwqpuvQ_7IX/s320/momdylancave.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342513922317666898" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSTQ4kYZ0uDcFVlfZHLlawAc2Kjs7IyXU1i1kcuIPolQX-b-DJWvu1vgavpVz5Z-tqe-quBOjUGve8K9iil1hUPzSRI47FGyW7_a7BV5n_6sKTj9XlYtGsZhhjIVSbWohwA4ZtKRIUDy-L/s1600-h/kyakfamily2.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSTQ4kYZ0uDcFVlfZHLlawAc2Kjs7IyXU1i1kcuIPolQX-b-DJWvu1vgavpVz5Z-tqe-quBOjUGve8K9iil1hUPzSRI47FGyW7_a7BV5n_6sKTj9XlYtGsZhhjIVSbWohwA4ZtKRIUDy-L/s320/kyakfamily2.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342513772029151394" border="0" /></a><br />ok. our newest kayaker. Dylan has now been through the caves. this is how safe and protected and confident we are. amazing. only 6 months. These headlands and bays are so cool here in Mendocino, and especially at Little River. I am ecstatic with life and you too can experience this.kayak mendocinohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16700559912657761466noreply@blogger.com0
