Paddle with your experienced guide to the sea caves of La Jolla before going snorkeling in the Ecological Reserve’s crystal-clear waters. Meet some of the region’s abundant underwater life on this 2.5-hour tour.

 

EXPERIENCE:

Paddle to the sea caves of La Jolla and snorkel amidst the surrounding Ecological Reserve. Get up close and personal with the Garibaldi, Leopard sharks, rays, and other unique local creatures.

Explore La Jolla’s pristine underwater Ecological Reserve during the calm water months of summer. Snorkel in two unique habitats, the rocky reef between Goldfish Point and Emerald Cove, and the sandy flats outside of the Marine Room. Along the reef and caves, you’ll likely see Garibaldi, sheepshead, blue moon, and other indigenous fish. Sea lions, Brandt’s cormorants, and brown pelicans also frequent this habitat. Harmless leopard sharks, bat rays, and shovel-nosed guitar fish inhabit the sandy flats on the south end of La Jolla Shores. Snorkel in these shallow waters teeming with life throughout the warm water months.

All snorkeling equipment and wetsuit (which can be kept for the remainder of the day after the tour) is included.
