New 2011 Season Services!

Emily & Vince Guiding Lighthouse Tour
Emily and I (Vincent Shay) are very excited to be in our second year of operation in Avila Beach,California.  We have been very blessed to meet some wonderful people as our clients this first year and we really appreciate all the positive feedback and we value everyone who came into our shop and rented or took a class or one of our Adventure Tours. After our first year of operation, SLO Coast Kayaks has some exciting new services and offers we would to let you know about for 2011.




Emily & Liquid Shredder Boards at Fossil Point
As most of you know we brought in five Liquid Shredder Stand Up Paddleboards (SUP) on the urging and interest of Emily, I might add. These type of boards are really great for first timers and perfect for rentals.  We actually offer a 'money back guarantee'! If we can't get you up and on your feet in the first 30 minutes (usually about 10 minutes, though!) then you will get your money back! In 2011, we decided to actually purchase even more to have a further opportunity to offer the public what they have called for which is more SUP! We now have plenty of SUPs, so larger groups are welcome!



Bonaventure Family on SUPs
We have also partnered with our good friend Stu Silvani of Shell Beach Surf Shop to offer a SUP Lesson with his Surfing Lessons.  The idea is to learn to surf one day, then learn to Stand Up Paddle the next. All this for $160 per person!  To learn more about this, go to:






Vincent Teaching Anna to SUP
If you want to learn to SUP directly with one of us (Emily or Vince) or one of our other knowledgeable instructors, do not hesitate to contact us at info@slocoastkayaks.com or call 805-704-6902.  I have personally taught new paddlers ages 6 to 76 years young! Our calm waters of Avila Beach make it a perfect place to learn! We do what we call a SUP Basic lesson that is coupled with a 'mini tour' to help you with your stroke and give you valuable tips to make your first time on a SUP more enjoyable, PLUS you will receive a photo CD of your experience. Wetsuits are available as part of the package, but we do encourage you to wear your own surf suit if you have one.
