With a login such as GoBruins then you probably have access to the UCLA
Outdoor rec center. This will be a great resource for getting out and
learning the area and getting folks to go with you.
Next I recomend joining the socalkayaking group on yahoo as this is
kayak message board just for the the LA, Orange, and ventura counties.
Next join or monitor the Cal Kayak Friends Club's activities.
www.CKF.org
there are many members with varing skill levels and interests. Even
one that is promoting calm lake water and camping on the lake shores as
adventures. This group maybe that best asset.
There is a book on paddling So Cal, can't remember the name but the
title is someting like adventure kayaking from Santa Barbara to Mexico.
This book list trips and skill requirments in an easy to work with
format. Southwind kayak Center and Aqua Adventures Kayak center have
the book, I'm sure! These 2 outfitters are also great resources that
you should know of to kayak in So Cal. REI can only get you so far!
More info then this would be getting in to details with out knowing you
and your skill & time level.
Good Luck and safe paddling,
