One of my favorite days spent in San Diego was when I went snorkeling and kayaking in La Jolla. I used a company called San Diego Bike and Kayak Tours and they did a fabulous job. My trip was about 3 hours long and around 50 bucks a person. It is definitely worth the price. Included in the price, you get an intro to kayak and snorkeling, a tour guide, and all the gear, (life jacket, snorkel, fins, mask, wetsuit if needed, paddle and kayak). And if you are still up to it , you can keep the snorkel gear for a half day after the guided tour part and explore on your own.
On your voyage, you kayak out to the 7 Caves in La Jolla. Once there, you link your kayaks together and have time to snorkel. You get to see beautiful local fish and see seals up close lounging on their rocks. If you go when the timing is right, you can even see some leopard sharks! You do not have to be experienced in snorkeling or kayaking to enjoy this. It was actually my very first time doing either and I felt very competent with the help of the guide and the introduction they give on land before you hit the water. The staff is friendly and really give you an enjoyable experience. I suggest bringing a water resistant or underwater camera to capture some of your memories made on your adventure.
For those of you who don't just want the typical formula for date, (dinner and a movie type deal), than this is the date for you. You are able to experience the beauty of La Jolla on the water, as well as under the water. An active couple or a new couple looking for an activity to break the ice would be perfect for this. This date provides an all day activity and plenty of fun and adventure!
