Kayak Connection

My Husband and I rented Stand Up Paddle Boards for the first time at Kayak Connection in Santa Cruz Harbor. What a fun experience. The staff was so helpful. One young lady named Gwen taught us both what to do and we paddled all around the harbor. We saw two seals and a ton of bird life! Had a great time.

We had such a great time stand up paddle boarding. Super friendly staff that gave us first timers great instruction on using our stand up paddle boards. I’m hooked can’t wait to go back!

Their staffs are super nice. But because of the strong wind, we could only kayak in the bay, which is just full of other vessels and the smell of diesel. 😥

I ordered an Old Town kayak from Kayak Connection back in August when most other stores weren’t allowing orders from Old Town due to the backlog of orders that Old Town couldn’t keep up with due to supplier issues. Dave from Kayak Connection has amazing customer service skills. He would respond to my questions quickly and even outside of business hours. He kept me up to date by reaching out to Old Town frequently for updates. In the end, the Old Town kayak order kept getting delayed due to supplier issues related to demand caused by COVID. I was able to cancel my order, totally hassle free and got a full refund. Dave didn’t hesitate to offer a refund and was very understanding. I will definitely buy or rent a kayak from here in the future. Nothing but top notch people running the business. A+ in customer service.
