"Thank you SLO Coast Kayaks/ Avila Beach Paddlesports! My mother and I went for a beautiful morning SUP in Avila today and sooo much fun!

They are professional, kind and so much fun! Great times and beautiful memories. Absolutely priceless! Amanda & Shardel <3 " More >
"The Bob Jones Trail is about 3 miles long and paved the whole way...a very fun and easy bike ride mostly flat...easy for families or people who aren't used to long rides. Plenty of things to do in Avila Beach when you get there...have lunch, snacks and plenty of shopping or just hang out on the bea..."ch. A beautiful beach and great weather.

"My wife, daughter and I rented Kayaks last weekend from the wonderful people by the Old Port pier and launch ramp...and what a treat. Avila Beach is one of our favorite places to go on the central coast...and we had always wanted to try sea kayaking. SLO Coast Kayaks/Avila Beach Paddlesports made ..."it easy, fun and very reasonable. The people could not be nicer, more helpful and infromative...having never kayaked we had a wonderful experience with their few minutes of tips and teaching.
We saw seals (up close) and other sea life...padddled under the pier over to the beach by the lighthouse (always wanted to see that too...now we have). Then we paddled back. It was so much fun...we will definitely do it again...and again. This was such a beautiful morning...and a great mini-adventure.
Thank you Avila Beach Paddlesports...you guys are the best! You really know how to treat your guests.
