Everyone has their own style of kayaking. What's yours? These two prefer the ultra casual style.

The arch at Sea Lion Island. We explore the rocks and islands of the Stornetta Public Lands on our Explore kayak tour and our Coves and Caves Kayak tour. In the water we experience the park in a unique way and get up close and personal with rock formation and marine life.

Hold on tight it's a big one! You can't beat catching a big fish in a kayak. Our guides don't mess around, they bring you to the best spots to get fish. When the fish are really biting we can start to catch them just a couple minutes into the tour.

Friday Fun Fact: Brown Pelicans can hold up to 3 gallons of water and fish in their bill, that's three times more than they can hold in the stomach!

Sustainability is a core value of North Pacific Adventure and we like to let the big ones go, after we take a photo of course. Larger rockfish can produce up to half a million eggs while smaller ones produce slicer to 50,000 eggs. The math is simple. large fish make more babies and more babies equals more fish in the future! This fisherman agreed that this big cabezone should be let go so it has a chance to spawn.

It's a rewarding feeling when you kayak past the pier and all the people fishing from it see how many fish you caught and how big they were. Not to mention, it’s just fun kayaking around the pier and seeing the cove from a different perspective.

Friday Fun Fact: Bull Kelp can grow up to 10 inches per day.

When the wind is blowing you around on the coast and you're starting to get sick of it, remember the ocean needs the wind in spring in order to have healthy kelp forests throughout summer. The wind drives the ocean currents and in turn the currents bring vital nutrients from the deep ocean up to the surface where the kelp forest can harness those nutrients and thrive.

A gentle breeze blowing across the water can make for some amazing sights while kayaking in Arena Cove. The gentile mist clinging to the cliff is one of our favorites and can appear and disappear in the blink of an eye.

On Wednesday 6/16 from noon to sunset we’ll be down at Arena Cove with letters for everyone to sign and send to city council asking them to stop the parking lot project and implement a new restoration plan. Please come show your support or message me for a digital copy of a letter for you to email.
The photo shows how the creek naturally flows into the rocks and is forced to flow around. Every boulder added makes this worse. Let’s restore our wild beauty!

Humpback Whales(Megaptera Novaeangliea) are beginning to cruise through the area. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife is closing the commercial dungeness crab season outside of 180 feet of water to lower risk of whale entanglements. Good news for us, we can still crab in the areas we fish and we’re more likely to see humpbacks while kayaking.

Hey everyone! It's time to adventure!
I want to announce the launch of North Pacific Adventure, a Guided Kayaking and Surf Lesson company. Starting today we are open for tours, lessons and fishing trips. We are a small local business fully licensed and insured. I Billy Arana am the founder of NPA, and I grew up in Point Arena. I saw there was a need for adventure activities in our community and wanted to put my experience and knowledge to use. I attended the University of California Santa Barbara, graduating with a double major in environmental studies and geography, focused on coastal environments and oceanography. I have been professionally guiding since I graduated in 2016. I have spent time guiding in the sea caves of Channel Islands National Park, in the blue waters of the Hawaiian islands and on the hot summer sands of the east coast.
We hope you choose come explore with us!
