As a docent for the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, I thought I knew it all, but I learned a lot from the knowledgeable naturalists at Central Coast Outdoors. Some of the nesting and feeding habits of birds and fish were surprising and fun to learn about, particularly while viewing the creatures being discussed. Naturally, kayaking in Morro Bay is... More

I took my two kids (14 and 12) on the half day guided kayak trip, with lunch included. We all had a great time. You meet at the marina in Morro Bay at 9:00 am, meet your guide, take a quick kayaking instruction and you're off! Our group consisted of one other couple. My daughter and I shared a kayak.... More

Rode the PCH in the morning, had a gourmet lunch and tasted wine in the afternoon. Our guide, Cindi, asked all the right questions to have us prepared to hit the ground running when we met up with her. Bikes were set up perfectly (I'm 6'4", my wife is 5'6"). We knew what equipment to bring and not to bring.... More

We spent the morning kayaking in Morro Bay guided by the lovely Kayla. We chose two kayaks, one for my 5 yo son and I, and one for my wife. The tour was the basic three hour trip they offered and it was great. Kayla was very patient and knew her stuff well, and the kayaks were in great shape.... More

We got to observe a lot of wildlife up close, including birds, seals, and otters. The guide was very friendly and... More

The ecotour was a series of hikes we took in the spectacularly rugged Central Californian coast. If one just drives through the Big Sur on Highway one you miss out on walking through the Redwood forests with babbling brooks beside you. Our personal tour guide picks you up in their company vehicle and takes you to hidden coves, redwood forests,... More

My six friends and I had the most amazing morning kayaking around the bay. Our patient and knowledgeable guide, Cindy, showed us all that makes this bay spectacular. From the history of the area, to the wildlife, we couldn't have had a better time. We'd highly recommend Central Coast Outdoors! More

My family and I (kids of age 10-12) went hiking in the Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park and the Lime Kiln State Park in Big Sur with John the owner for one day. He had the just right balance of adventure, fun, educational aspect, magnificent natural surroundings, professionalism and personable character into our one day hike. The kids also enjoyed... More
