Emerald Cave Half-Day Kayak Tour, a Triple Cave Adventure
Overview
This four-hour, 4-mile round-trip guided kayak tour from Willow Beach lasts up to an hour longer than most half-day tours, giving you more time on the water to explore THREE stunning caves—including Emerald Cave—while paddling through the dramatic Black Canyon and spotting wildlife like bighorn sheep and bald eagles. Capture unforgettable moments as your guide takes hundreds of photos and videos along the way, while also sharing stories of the canyon’s geology, wildlife, and Hoover Dam-era history.
Enjoy a relaxing riverside break with complimentary snacks, juice, and bottled water, and experience a pace that feels immersive, not rushed. With more time, more caves, and a deeper route than standard tours, this half-day adventure offers a truly unique way to experience Emerald Cave and beyond.

Nov 2021No experience is necessary! Beginners are welcome on all of our kayak tours. Most of our guests have never been in a sea kayak before. Anyone in average physical condition may join a kayak tour. If you can hike or bike, you can paddle our sea kayaks. You do not need any swimming skills either.
The only prerequisite is a healthy spirit of curiosity and adventure.
Regardless of age or skill level you will find that our expeditions offer enough flexibility to make your experience with us safe and rewarding. We will show you proper sea kayaking technique and water safety before leaving the beach. And your expert guides will be with you throughout the adventure to give you pointers and improve your skills.
Sep 2022Your safety is Top10Adventures®’s number one concern. In general, sea kayaking is safer than most other outdoor pursuits, even bicycling.
