Welcome to Santa Cruz Kayaks

 

The Raptor was created especially for fishing the coastal and off-shore waters of California.
Santa Cruz Kayaks combines art and science to offer a unique fishing experience through kayaks created and designed by an avid kayak fisherman.

 

The Santa Cruz Kayak Raptor is swift, stable and comfortable enough to fish in all day long. The versatility of the design delivers a satisfying experience for experts and novices alike. Santa Cruz Kayaks, designed by a fisherman for fishermen.

 

One of our primary goals throughout production was that every single part that went into the development and fabrication was to be MADE IN THE USA. A difficult challenge in these times of corporations shifting to cheap Asian labor markets. We are very proud of Santa Cruz Kayaks’ results. All of our molds were designed and fabricated in the USA. In our only nod to the “Global Economy” the rear handles, are made in France. All the other parts that make up our kayaks are manufactured right here at home in the USA.
