Look for the yellow SEA-DOO RENTAL sign. Embarcadero Place is a short street with a gate. Drive down the right side to the gate. Roll your driver’s window down and tell the office you are here to rent Seadoos or Kayaks. Push the silver button in and talk directly into the speaker. If no answer, call 949.370.3206 and I will come let you in. When the gate lifts, pass through it and turn LEFT immediately. Drive 100 yards straight and park your car to the RIGHT near the blue kiosk with the SEA-DOO RENTAL sign on top.
