MARY ROBINSON

OWNER, LEAD INSTRUCTOR

I have lived in Morro Bay on and off since 1985 and have been paddling kayaks and SUP's for more than 20 years. I was an avid kayak surfer for years before I found stand up paddling. I love SUP surfing and racing, and I enjoy introducing the sports of SUP and kayaking to people of all ages! I earned my SUP instructor certifications through ASI, PaddleFit, and World Paddle Assn., and have been teaching for six years. I am also a Certified Lifeguard, and a Certified California Naturalist with a B.S. in Ecology. I teach SUP Surf lessons here, and lead guided nature tours. 

SIENA WAGNER

KAYAK/SUP RENTAL ATTENDANT

I am a Cal Poly student studying landscape architecture! I hope to work on coastal restoration, and that is why I love Morro Bay! I started stand up paddling in 2020 and fell in love with it too. I really enjoy helping to put people on  the water and help them connect with nature through paddling. If you have any questions about plants that grow here in Morro Bay's estuary, feel free to ask! 

SARAH SANDSTROM

LEVEL 2 SUP COACH

I have always loved water activities. I fell in love with stand up paddle (SUP) racing in 2014. Over the years, I have honed my skills and endurance to compete at the elite level, having learned from some of the world's best SUP racers. I enjoy helping others build their confidence and stand up paddling technique. Whether you are looking to build your balance, fitness or skills as a racer, I would love to help you achieve those goals!

RACHEL LOW

My mission in life is to help others connect with nature by being active and having fun outdoors!  I led kayak tours of all ages and abilities for 6 years in Santa Barbara and at the Channel Islands, earned my Level 1 SUP
Instructor Certification through ACA in 2018, and have been honing my paddling skills with Morro Bay Paddlesports since 2020.  I teach the SUP basics; navigating wind and current, safety, gear, paddling technique, turns, and self-rescue so that you can feel confident, have fun, and enjoy the wildlife in Morro Bay!

OWEN TAFFE

KAYAK/SUP RENTAL ATTENDANT

I’m a recent UC Santa Cruz graduate who loves the environment and introducing it to others. I particularly love the coast, and Morro Bay - a dynamic place full of sea life. I’ve been involved with many water sports throughout my life, and am an avid surfer.  I really enjoy helping paddlers who are just starting out, and also those more experienced paddlers looking to get better. I hope I can help point out some of the magic of Morro Bay to you! I will also be guiding kayak tours here, so hope to see you out here!

This could be you!
