The wife and I went on this LA Kayak tour of the Los Angeles, River this August 13th of 2023. We chose the 12:30pm tour instead of the later one which supposedly is better, because we had prior plans of later in the afternoon. It was $85 a piece which included, a bike ride, Helmut, vest, and kayak as well as a quick lesson on how. to maneuver a kayak, we were beginners, as well as the history of the LA River. You meet up at a small park, be aware there is no restrooms in this small park. Once you check in you go for a shirt bike ride on a beach type bike. You arrive at the start of the trip in what appears to be the nice big backyard of a residence. There is a port potty there as well if you need it. Once there the history of the LA River is discussed as well as how to maneuver a kayak and then you’re off. We had two guides go with the group. One was a nice young lady from Poland and another was a young guy I’m guessing of Hispanic descent. They were both very nice and very helpful. A couple times the lady took pictures of us on our kayaks and I figured maybe we could get copies or buy them but that never came up. Too bad because I’d of liked to have gotten a couple. At the end of the trip you ned to help bring the equipment out of the LA River. And then that is is. We chose top put $10 in the tip jar for the guides but you don’t have to. There was no pressure to either. But like I said they were very nice and helpful so I was glad to do it. I’ve lived in LA all my 60 years of life and never did this or thought we ever could. So glad I took the trip and I highly recommend you do too. My only suggestion is instead of taking off at the end I’d stick around and see if you can get copies of the pictures they take on the trip of you. – via

What an absolute pleasure to spend a little over an hour at Hollywood Divers this morning. Everyone on staff was super helpful and willing to share information and major props to Hal for helping me find the right wet suit, mask, fins, snorkel, and dive computer! I couldn’t ask for better service. While it’s possible to buy equipment online at a slight discount, I visited their store because I wanted more than just the gear, I wanted professional, experienced input before purchasing. Being able to speak with people who are active and avid divers, who are able to share their experience and recommendations, is well worth paying a little more money. Btw, when you walk in, you’re greeted, treated with respect, and you feel like family. I’m now looking forward to going on some of their dive tours around Catalina Island. Thank you Hollywood Divers!!!!!!! – via

This is so fun! Everyone thinks of the LA River as being a cement sewer, but in the Frogtown area and the Sepulveda Basin area it’s actually beautiful and green and boatable! I took a tour on the Frogtown area and it has some fun little rapids or adventure areas, but nothing too scary. It’s a fantastic way to spend an LA afternoon, or a place to bring out of town guests. The tour guides are really fun, but also safe so you are in good hands. – via
