"Fun way to see the low country."

Fun guided kayak tour of Broad Creek with Mike as our guide. This was not my wife and my first paddle but we appreciated touring with our guide. We really enjoyed learning about the low country birds, dolphins, calms and more. Broad Creek was a fairly easy place to kayak even with the tide and a little wind. Mike lead us away from the current as best as possible. Nice kayaks and PFD's. We were able to easily book online the evening before our tour. Thanks for a very enjoyable and informative kayak trip.

"The kayaking itself was fun. Guide was great. Limited wildlife other than egrets."

The guide was great. He made a lot of Michigan jokes and kept us entertained both on and off the water. The kayaking was fun. Only wished there was more wildlife to see. We saw egrets and saw only one dolphin, at the dock before we got on the water.
