What's the answer. . . - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I can only speak for the areas in San Diego that are under the watchful eyes of the Lifeguards. Kayaks can be launched just about anywhere except in locations that are designated as swimming areas or the very few areas, (La Jolla Cove for example), where floating devices are not allowed. Designated surfing areas are OK.

Believe it or not, it is legal to launch a kayak at the Children's Pool, (now known as the seal reserve where Children are no longer allowed to swim). You just cannot interact in any way with the seals. Exactly who is charged with deciding what "interaction" is or enforcing that regulation is unclear.

I suspect that most other cities and counties have similar regulations.
