🚣‍♀️ California | Take a boat ride to see adorable sea otters 🦦🌊

Did you know that sea otters are incredibly cute and envy-worthy creatures? They eat a lot, sleep soundly, groom themselves, and spend their days with the important task of making themselves look fluffy and smelling great! But here's the catch - sea otters are quite rare. In the United States, you can only find them in California and Alaska. 🌟 I highly recommend visiting the Moss Landing Elkhorn Slough in the famous Highway 1. It's a renowned wildlife observation area where you are almost guaranteed to see sea otters 🦦. We chose to kayak ourselves, which gave us the freedom to explore. In just over 20 minutes of paddling, we encountered numerous river otters, harbor seals, pelicans, and other bird species! We spent a total of three hours there and saw more than twenty sea otters 🦦. They were just as delightful as I imagined! They lay there lazily, busy grooming their fur with their little paws. Their fluffy appearance melted my heart! Every now and then, we would spot a furry little head popping up in front of our boat. We also witnessed pairs of otters frolicking and showing affection to each other in the water. On the shoreline, there were plenty of lazy 🦭 harbor seals basking in the sun 🌞. If you're lucky, you'll experience calm waves and enjoy the relaxing sea breeze! 📍 Kayak Connection Moss Landing 💰 Double kayak: $85 | Single kayak: $50 ⚠️ Tips: 1. Maintain a distance of at least five boat-lengths from sea otters. If they notice you, it means you're too close. Parallel reverse or paddle around them without pointing the boat toward them. 2. You don't need to paddle the entire way. It gets tiring and time-consuming to paddle against the current on the way back. Just paddle to Seal Bend, which is about 1 mile away, and you'll already encounter plenty of wildlife. 3. Most importantly, remember to wear sunscreen! Protect yourself from the sun while enjoying this amazing experience. #CaliforniaWildlife #SeaOtters #KayakingAdventures #MossLandingElkhornSlough #NatureObservation #WildlifeConservation #ExploreCalifornia #AdventuresWithFriends #MemorableExperiences #SunscreenIsImportant
