When we arrived, the employee who got us set up on the boat was just as great -- patient, informative, fun, and super easygoing. We rented a boat for 2 hours and it ended up being the perfect Memorial Day activity. Highly recommend if you want to explore the marina or ocean, sunbathe, fish, listen to music, and just enjoy good vibes. Thank you again for such a fun experience!

Two rentals here, two completely different experiences. My first was perfectly fine. My second left…read moreme with no intention of ever coming back, and the reason has a name: the owner, Mark Sentyrz. Credit where it's due -- the staff working the docks were warm and helpful every time. The owner was the opposite. What I watched over the course of that second visit was a man who seemed to make up charges and rules as he went. The clearest example was my own deposit, which somehow climbed from the $300 I was quoted when I booked online to $450 on arrival -- a 50% jump I never agreed to and never saw written anywhere during checkout. And I wasn't the only one. Customer after customer got the same treatment. One person tried to simply walk away from the whole thing, and he laughed at them and announced he'd be keeping their $95. The way he treated his own team was just as hard to watch. Certain employees seemed to be his favorites; others he'd put down openly, right in front of paying customers. The whole place had a tense, on-edge feeling to it. He struck me as genuinely intimidating, and honestly, if I worked there I don't think I'd ever feel safe pushing back on any of it. One more thing I'd want to know before handing this person a deposit. According to a 2003 Tahoe Daily Tribune article, a Mark Sentyrz who owned a Lake Tahoe boat-rental business pleaded guilty to felony unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor under 16, as well as furnishing a controlled substance to a minor. I'd encourage anyone curious to look it up and form their own view. Having a boat rental right here in the Marina should be something the community gets to enjoy. The way this one is run, it's the opposite. Skip it.

Coming here definitely changed my perspective on kayaking and when I tell you that I had one of the funnest times with LA River Expeditions, I mean it! From the moment I arrived, the friendly and knowledgeabl staff made me feel right at home. They provided such detailed instructions and safey guidelines. ( that were also super beginner friendly! ) The LA River itself was honestly such a surprising journey. i was immediately captivated by the stunning urban landscapes surrounding the river. The juxtaposition of nature and the cityscape created a unique and surreal atmosphere. It felt like we were exploring a hidden gem right in the heart of Los Angeles. The equipment provided by LA River Expeditions was topnotch. The sturdy rafts and safety gear gave me confidence throughout the journey. It was evident that they prioritize customer safety and comfort, ensuring a memorable and worryfree experience.The equipment was very well kept, sturdy, and overall super clean! Cleanliness is super important nowadays and seeing the quality and cleanliness of the rafts honestly made me feel super safe! Throughout the journey, the guides displayed a remarkable ability to balance professionalism with a friendly and personable approach. They were attentive, ensuring everyone stayed safe and engaged throughout the trip. One aspect that truly stood out was their ability to cater to different experience levels. Whether someone was a seasoned kayaker or a complete beginner like myself, the guides were patient and understanding, providing individualized attention and guidance when needed. I cannot recommend LA River Expeditions enough. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, adventure junkie, or simply looking for a unique way to experience Los Angeles, this expedition is a mustdo! I highly recommend La River Expedition to anyone seeking a memorable adventure guided by a team of remarkable individuals who go above and beyond to ensure an outstanding experience for their guests. Trust me, you won't regret it. Prepare for an unforgettable adventure that will leave you craving more.

They also have a key to the bathroom, which is around the corner. Even though we were 20 minutes early, they let us get on the water bike after a quick instruction. Riding on the water bikes was really fun! We rode around the bay and the water was choppy sometimes but as you get inside the bay, the water is calmer. A trick is that if you feel the water is too choppy, start paddling - the water will calm down with the pedaling. There are several boats around which provided live music for us. The bike has two cup holders and a front container to put your phones and small stuff in. We had a great time. They share a parking lot with nearby restaurants which offer 3 hours of free parking. That is a huge plus for something near the beach! We will be back next time to try a glow ride.
