Our philosophy is a little different than our competition's. La Jolla Sea Cave Kayaks @ Sea Level is owned and operated by people passionate about our planet and about kayaking as a way to explore amazing marine environments. We value quality above quantity and strive to provide each guest with an empowering experience during which they connect with their personal sense of adventure, nature, friends and family, and inspiring guides.
Our guides are chosen and trained by owner Jen Kleck, the most highly certified kayaking instructor and guide in California. She holds top level awards from both the American Canoe Association and British Canoeing. Jen has been guiding kayak tours to the world famous La Jolla sea caves since 1995. She opened La Jolla Sea Cave Kayaks, LLC in 2005 with long-time La Jolla resident Lance Peto to better serve the increased demand for her tours.
By offering better wages, professional training and a family atmosphere, SCK is able to attract and retain the best guides; many of whom remain loyal members of the team for years.
La Jolla Sea Cave Kayaks @ Sea Level acknowledges that we live and work on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Kumeyaay people. We recognize that the ocean and marine life are integral to the Kumeyaay culture and we endeavor to steward these resources with respect and care. We honor the Kumeyaay elders past, present and emerging, and commit ourselves to ongoing relationship-building in solidarity with Kumeyaay and all indigenous peoples.
