Testimonials
We did a kayak tour and these guys are just about the friendliest group of people you could ask for. Our guides, Buddy and Will, were very knowledgeable about the area and wildlife. They were also very accommodating for a member of our party who has a disability. Definitely something to checkout if you’re visiting the area!
Buddy was an excellent guide, teacher and encourager for those of us who had little kayaking experience. Â He had so many interesting facts and knowledge to share about the area, and especially about the beloved lightning bugs.
This was a first class adventure! Jody and Ray are knowledgeable about local wildlife and aquatic species, and share their knowledge with a genuine enthusiasm for the beautiful world out on the water. It was an awesome experience!
We had a wonderful day! While wind conditions did not allow for kayaking, we rented bikes and had a beautiful ride to include a visit to the beautiful Boneyard Beach! CJ was most helpful in setting us up for a most enjoyable morning!
Could not have had a better family kayak experience! Nine of us starting age 4 to adults. Thanks to our fantastic guide Rachel and booking manager CJ. This was a HUGE hit for all of us. Highly recommended!
Our guides were deeply knowledgeable about the history and ecology of the area, and were also good teachers of basic kayaking skills. The trip was peaceful and beautiful, and we saw a lot of birds, including a kingfisher, ospreys, egrets, and herons.
We have kayaked many times in many places. This was the best. The guides and staff were excellent. The trip was easy, fun and beautiful. - Amelia Island, FL
