Sunset Kayaking Tour in Marin

An unique early evening kayak adventure in the San Francisco Bay

What a great way to end your day or ignite your evening! We'll paddle out from our private beach and towards the shoreline of the Corte Madera Ecological Reserve. During sunset hours, the water and wind are typically calmest and create optimal conditions for a relaxing paddle. The Sun's warm colors reflect off the marsh grasses and the water's surface creating a tranquil environment with a unique perspective. Along the way we'll observe shorebirds coming in to roost and hopefully a few Harbor Seals swimming about and feeding. We will head back just before the last vibrant beams of light hide behind Mount Tamalpais.

This tour is excellent for those looking for a one of a kind outdoor adventure and is very popular among couples and close friends. If you are looking to get dinner afterwards, there are many great choices within walking distance.

Take Highway 101 North, and cross the Golden Gate Bridge. At the first sign for the Richmond Bridge/Sir Francis Drake Boulevard, exit 101 and bear right onto Sir Francis Drake Boulevard. Make an immediate right turn into the first driveway and parking. If you miss the first driveway, try the second smaller one. If you miss that one, turn into the Wood Island business complex, veer right, and park in the lower lot.

Directions to the Marin Store from Santa Rosa

Take 101 South and take the Sir Francis Drake Boulevard exit and turn left at the light. Drive under the highway 101 overpass then turn into the first shopping center on your right. When changing lanes towards the shopping center, be very careful since there is oncoming traffic exiting the highway in that lane. There are two driveways to our store and one additional one in a neighboring property. If you miss the first driveway, try the second smaller one. If you miss that one, turn into the Wood Island business complex, veer right, and park in the lower lot.

Take 580 West towards San Rafael. Once you cross the bridge, pass up the exit for Sir Francis Drake Boulevard, and take the next exit for 101 South towards San Francisco. This exit takes you through town in order to get onto 101 South. At the exit, go left at the light, and follow the signs to 101 South. Once on southbound 101, take the next exit at Sir Francis Drake Boulevard and turn left at the light. Drive under the highway 101 overpass then turn into the first shopping center on your right.
