Malibu Tandem Ocean Kayak — Sit-On-Top Double

Share the paddle. Share the adventure.
The Malibu Tandem Ocean Kayak is a stable, user-friendly sit-on-top kayak designed for two paddlers to explore together with confidence. Built by Malibu Kayaks, this tandem kayak is ideal for couples, friends, families, or an adult paddling with a child—offering comfort, security, and easy handling on calm to lightly choppy water.

Its wide, flat hull delivers excellent stability, making it approachable even for first-time paddlers. The open sit-on-top design simplifies launching and landing from beaches, docks, or shorelines, and makes re-entry straightforward if anyone ends up in the water. With generous deck space and multiple seating positions, the Malibu Tandem can be paddled by two—or solo when needed.

Durable rotomolded construction ensures the kayak holds up to frequent coastal use, while its forgiving performance makes it a favorite for relaxed days on lakes, bays, and protected saltwater.

Happy OH-WA-CO Family Reunion

I (from Ohio) joined daughters from Colorado and Washington for several days of time together at a VRBO home around fifteen minutes southwest of Port Gamble. Among the activities of our time was the kayak experience.

We found Port Gambel to be a quaint little place. The process of organizing the rentals went smoothly. The woman who helped us was knowledgeable, pleasant and helpful. There were eight of us, so it worked nicely with two people per kayak. Each one had both an adult and a kid. We weren't really ambition in terms of covering territory, so we just explored the Port Gamble inlet. We were pleasantly surprised to experience no powered boat activity in that area.

The end process went smoothly as well and we found the full experience to be quite positive. We’d recommend it to others

Fantastic time paddling Liberty Bay!

We had a fantastic time paddling Liberty Bay. The weather was perfectly overcast, allowing us to see the many harbor seals gracing the docks. The staff at Olympic Outdoor Center was friendly and helpful, as we had a couple people in our group who were kayaking for the first time. The rates were very reasonable and the equipment was quality. I highly recommend!

Love getting out on Liberty Bay but Kayaks are not comfortable to sit in after an hour

Love getting out on Liberty Bay but Kayaks are not comfortable to sit in after an hour. Feel like I need to bring my own cushion. Disappointed you no longer have 1 hr rentals. Now I must pay a lot more when sometimes 1 hr is all I need. Multiply that by other family members and it ends up cost a lot more than it used to.
