Malibu Kayaks is a leading manufacturer of roto-molded, linear polyethylene sit-on-top kayaks. We offer many models suited for a multitude of activities, catering to the fishing, diving, surfing, and recreational communities. Malibu Kayaks is best known for manufacturing dry sit-on-top kayaks that are comfortable, stable, stylish, versatile, and affordable.

Malibu Kayaks began manufacturing a little over 10 years ago, with the Pro 2 Tandem being introduced in 1999. President and owner, Sean Caples has been involved in the water sports business for well over 20 years. His passion for water sports began with wind surfing and evolved into the world of kayaking. Sean started manufacturing Malibu Kayaks after being an enthusiast first, then a teacher, and then a reseller of kayaks throughout the 80’s and the 90’s. It began in a small surf shop in Malibu during the early 90’s, evolving over the years into the world-wide recognizable brand that we are today! He began his business on the philosophy of fulfilling the needs and the wants of the fisherman, and has continued to design kayaks with that same philosophy to this day!

Malibu Kayaks has earned worldwide recognition for its quality, performance, and weight capacity. The Pro 2 Tandem, Extreme, Pro Explorer, X-Factor and the Mini-X are the designs that helped build this well deserved reputation. In 2008 the performance-minded X-13 was introduced and for 2009, the Stealth Series is being introduced with the patented CBTS. These valuable design features combined with an unparalleled limited lifetime warranty makes Malibu Kayaks one of the most attractive kayaks on the market today.

Designing innovative products to enhance the kayaking experience has always been the primary reason why Malibu Kayaks stand out from the rest of their competitors. Products like the patented Gator Hatch, the X-Wing sliding console, X-Tower, center bait tank system (CBTS), motor mounts, flush mount rod holders, and drop-in bait tanks prove that function is the main motivator in keeping the models unique and custom built.

This motivation is what drives Malibu Kayaks to introduce innovation like more hull space for accessorizing with numerous mounting locations, extra large storage hatches, rod holders positioned conveniently and correctly, extreme weight capac-ity, and extra leg room and not to mention, the kayaks are exceptionally stable and track very well!

The newest innovation is the all-inclusive CBTS. For many years people have asked for a bait tank storage system that is in the middle of the kayak between their legs. This is the first of its kind, a casting platform and a bait tank system that doesn't require the painful task of priming the pump and you don't have to strain yourself reaching behind you to get your bait.

Malibu Kayaks continues to look forward to the future with excitement about the endless possibilities that come to play with new designs that are in the works. Malibu Kayaks will be introducing 3 new “sit-in” style kayaks in 2009. Please feel free to contact us for details as they come available.

Thank you for your interest in Malibu Kayaks. We would love to hear what you have to say. Ideas, concerns or ways you think we could improve our kayaks are welcomed. Please feel free to let us know. [email protected] Happy Kayaking!
