I was lucky enough to take a 2 hour Kayak Nature Tour and have Wayne, my guide, all to myself. It was a beautiful day, but in the off season not as busy. He was so knowledgeable about the flora and fauna and good stories about Hilton Head. I would encourage anyone visiting now to get out on the water. The temperature is perfect. Enjoy.
Wonderful kayaking...

Wonderful kayaking experience for a family. The guide was informative and it was easy to get in and out of the kayaks. Kayaking in Hilton Head was beautiful (the weather was perfect) and there were good birds. Highly recommend.

We had a great relaxing nature tour with Michael, he was very informative about the area and the wildlife. We even saw a couple dolphins! He did a brief overview of how to kayak for any newbies in our group. We will absolutely return for another one of their tours the next time we’re in town.

My two hour guided kayak nature tour on Broad Creek on November 5th 2025 was awesome. Casey is an excellent guide and as a native of the area his knowledge having grown up on these waters was excellent. He was able to share many insights on the wildlife and history of the area. This is a great experience that I highly recommend.
