The pedal kayaks are great fun! Tammy and Roland operated the kayak rental business from their private property. They will arrange for delivery and pick up of kayaks directly to you! They are extremely helpful and endeavor to ensure that each kayak tour is a unique and fun trip.Description:
On a sunny Saturday morning, my son and I rented a new pedal style kayak from Kayak Rocky Point. We took it out to the water near Las Conchas in Puerto Penasco. The ocean was peaceful and clear; we could see deep under the calm water. We hopped in to take the first ride. Before we knew it, we were kayaking amidst about a dozen dolphins. Wildly waving my arms, I made crazy gestures to my husband, who jumped in another smaller kayak with his camera and paddled like mad to meet us.The pedal kayak is very stable even with two people and we steered the kayak in tight curves and turns to follow the dolphins back and forth around for about a half an hour. I pedaled until I thought my legs would fall off!
The dolphins jumped as many as six wide in unison. They are sleek creatures, barely gliding out of the water and then quietly diving back under water. We continued to watch in silence. Experiencing the moment! After quite a few minutes, one dolphin started to slap his tail on the water each time he came to the surface.
In the silence of the pedal kayak, we could hear each dolphin as it emerged from the water making a loud "pooff" sound as it expelled air. Words simply cannot describe what it was like to be so close to these grand animals in such a quiet atmosphere. Finally, the dolphins made their exit, swimming away much faster than we could follow. Talk about making our day… Wow!
