Everyone that goes on the tour will have to descend and ascend 145 stairs. If a member of your party is unable to do this, you will need to carry them. While we will not tell you not to bring your baby or favorite senior citizen, we recommend considering their physical ability as well as your own (considering you will be the one carrying them up 10 flights of stairs) before booking a tour.

We forbid any of our guests from climbing off the platform because of the various dangers involved. The waters can get rough and are shallower than they look. There are also wild animals such as seals and sea lions which have been documented as injuring swimmers before. 

​

If you want to swim in the caves, you are free to do so if you leave us and our tunnel out of it. To do this, hop in the water at Goldfish Point or at the Cove and swim around. 

Legitimate service dogs are allowed on private tours. 
Emotional support animals are not.

Cash, all major credit/debit cards, and contactless pay

Kayak tours of La Jolla's sea caves are launched from La Jolla Shores by a number of businesses, including San Diego Bike and Kayak, La Jolla Kayak, and Everyday California. 

Casual and comfortable clothing is recommended, with an emphasis on close toed shoes with a good grip because the stairs in the tunnel can get slippery and muddy.
