Thanks for the review, this location is a self service kayak launch. All kayaks are on wheels for customers to take into boulder bay park 100 yards down to the water. Our company cannot assist in helping launch at this location because the city does not allow it :( We do have another location which is a private dock in veterans park if you need full assistance. We appreciate your business. Thank you.

Thank you so much for the review!!! We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you again in Big Bear Lake

Thanks for sharing! Yes the wind can be a problem in any kayak and when there is still snow on the mountains in early season, kayaking can be super cold this time of year. If you ever come back to kayak in big bear, try our other location at our private dock, its great for beginners since you launch from a dock with our staff on hand. The location you launched at is a self service launch (do it yourself beach location) we cannot provide kayaks on the beach, the city makes the customers launch themselves, we cannot help out or conduct business in that park. :( Some customers do love that self launch experience, and some prefer our private dock location at (veterans park) Thanks for sharing your story and memories. see you next time. Mid May thru September is the best time :) Getboards
