Welcome to Sea Quest Kayak Expeditions:

An Introduction to our Company

 

"I felt very fortunate to have experienced my first kayaking trip with such an eloquent, knowledgeable, fun-loving, life-loving guide. He allowed me to truly enjoy the excursion because he warranted my complete respect and trust throughout the adventure. Great work on your planning. We had a great time. Pretty exhilarating for a landlubber like myself!"
Julie Briggs, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA

 

 

Sea Quest Kayak Expeditions

Biologist guides kayaking trip leadersOur goal is simply stated: we want to provide you with the best sea kayaking trip of your life! Join us for a kayaking adventure that offers everything from energized fun to calm serenity. For your pleasure and enlightenment, our staff skillfully hand-crafts every Sea Quest Kayak Expedition into a custom learning experience - one that will surely enhance your appreciation of our natural environment. All kayak expeditions are led by actual biologists and environmental scientists who double as highly-trained outdoor educators and sea kayak guides. This level of excellence distinguishes us from all other outfitters while transforming your experience into an adventure in learning. The spirit of our kayak expeditions is captured in the word "zoetic", an archaic expression of Renaissance naturalists that means "endowed with life".

 

Zoetic Research

This is our small non-profit organization that began operating Sea Quest Kayak Expeditions twenty years ago. Our activities include outdoor environmental education, the promotion of scientific investigation, and financial support for leading conservation groups. Join a Sea Quest Kayak Expedition and you will be sharing in our commitment to preserve natural areas and wildlife. You'll also have a great time doing it!

 

 

We Love our Work as Kayaking Guides & Educators!

Our friendly crew of sea kayak guides loves kayaking, coastlines and the animals who live there. This pursuit has led us to explore the wildest places from Alaska to Baja in our sea kayaks. Our greatest satisfaction comes from introducing other people to our favorite places and natural environments. We have committed our lives to providing educational and recreational experiences to anyone who will join us in the adventure. Thanks to a lot of practice and hard work, we are now experts at introducing inexperienced travelers to the joys of sea kayaking.solo sunrise.JPG (11818 bytes)

In case you are wondering why we have chosen sea kayaks as our method of exploration here is the answer: its a delightful way to visit beautiful areas and enjoy sensitive wildlife without causing any damage or lasting disturbance. We don't even leave footprints! Kayaking is like backpacking, except everything is carried in your boat - not on your back! It's more luxurious, too, since our sea kayaks can carry much more than you'd ever get on your back.

Our state-of-the-art, expedition-equipped, two-person kayaks are swift and stable. Please don't confuse these craft with tippy white-water kayaks. If you follow our simple instructions you are sure to remain upright the entire trip. Your guides will quickly teach you the basics of sea kayaking, and the techniques will take little time for you to master.

We encourage you to read through this website and to give us a call if you have any questions. Remember, almost anyone can participate in a kayak tour. If one of our adventures feels right for you, don't miss the chance! We're ready to help you make the most of your vacation time. You'll probably be one of our many guests every year who say "I'm so happy I decided to come on this kayak trip! I almost decided on something else, or to wait another year. I'm glad I did it now because who knows if I'd have another chance later."

Please click on Reviews to read comments from those who have traveled with us in recent years. You'll learn why over half of our guests are referred to us by past guests.
