At Blue Waters Kayaking we have a large assortment of
single and double sea kayaks, including closed and open deck kayaks.

and your equipment such as spray skirt, paddle, life vest, pump and paddle float.

Otherwise closed-deck trips must be guided. Open-deck kayaks are available for rental with no prior training. Our rental policy for Sit-On-Top DOUBLES is as follows: TOTAL WEIGHT LIMIT = 350 lbs. OVERNIGHT RENTALS for OPEN DOUBLES must use motorboat support (see motorboat support policies below) OVERNIGHT RENTALS for OPEN SINGLES may go self-supported.

**Note on our Triple: it is set up for two adults and one child, not for three adults. The triple is a closed-deck, so one person in the boat must have SKB training. OUR MOTORBOAT SUPPORT POLICY Motorboat support is available to transport camping gear and equipment from our MARSHALL site to your campsite at Marshall or Tomales Beach & back. This service makes camping with sit-on-tops, which do not carry as much gear, more doable. It also makes it possible to set up a comfortable base camp with items which are not readily tranportable by kayak, such as tables, chairs, coolers, firewood etc. The fee for this round-trip service is $25 per person to Marshall or Tomales Beach, with a minimum charge of $150 per boatload. Upon request we can try to group small parties together to offset this minimum fee. For beach campsites north of Tomales Beach, a fuel and time surcharge will apply.   Drop-off locations and rates: * Marshall Beach, Tomales Beach: $150 per boat load (gear for approximately 6 people) * Pelican Point to Pita Beach (just north of White's Gulch), add $100 per round trip * Pita Beach to Avalis Beach, add additional $100 per round trip. NOTE: One motorboat load usually accomodates 6 campers. One load in volume is approximately 4'w x6.5'l x2.5'h, 65 cu ft, (about a small pickup truck load), and can be up to 600 lbs. in weight. BWK reserves the right to charge extra for loads exceeding these guidelines. A partial load is billed as a full load.
