Tips & Tidbits

The kayaks can act as quite a reflector of the sun, so be sure not to forget to lather up on the sunscreen before and throughout your adventure. Hats are a great addition to your attire, as well.

Hydrate. We always recommend bringing your own cool, hydrating beverages.

Leave your prized possessions at home. We provide dry bags that do well at keeping your things free of moisture, but sometimes the world works in mysterious ways and things could get wet, so please take the necessary precautions to prevent accidents. Some like to store their phones and other related items in Ziploc bags. Also, wear items you aren’t afraid to get wet because getting wet cannot be avoided.

These kayaks do a bit of bobbing, so if you are prone to motion/sea sickness, we recommend taking an antihistamine like Dramamine prior to your adventure.

We always recommend an early morning rental to get the most optimal experience in these kayaks. The water is much calmer, there are far less people on the water during that time and the sun is not directly above you like it is during the later rentals which causes a glare on the kayaks. This glare makes it much more difficult to see through the kayaks, unfortunately.

Longer the rental, the better! 1-hr rentals are only for those not looking to do much exploring and do not have their hearts set on seeing the turquoise, secluded coves.

FAQs

Q. Where are you located?

A. Our flagship location is located on the North Shore in the heart of Kings Beach, CA. This is where all of our renters are directed to go at this time.

Our address is:

8612 N. Lake Boulevard

It's a large green building with our Lifestyle Boutique in front (kayaks in the back) on the lakeside of N. Lake Boulevard at the Raccoon St. roundabout and right above the small parking lot for Raccoon Beach.

We have another location on the North Shore in Incline Village, NV that is currently a meeting point/transportation hub for our tours and soon-to-be an additional rental location.

*If you are having trouble finding trash cans on your journey, please leave whatever it is in the kayak and one of our Travel Ambassadors will be happy to dispose of it.

• Kayaks/SUPs must not be pulled up onto sandy beaches or boulders. If you want to get out at any coves or beaches, the equipment must remain on the water away from boulders and such and you must keep a close eye on them. Sand, rocks and boulders cause severe damage to our equipment creating large scratches and diminishing the clarity of the kayaks/SUPs. Please go over our Damage Policy on the Policies page to learn what it could cost you if you do not follow our instruction and take good care of our equipment and accessories. These babies are not cheap!

If the waiver is not completed by all participants prior to your rental, those participants will NOT be able to go on this Clear Kayak Adventure.
