Don’t take our word for it – here’s what our clients say:
I’ve been wanted to try SUP Yoga and found that they offered it. Location was easy to find, Heather was so great in teaching… I didn’t fall in once! Though it would have probably been refreshing.

We saw lots of birds and turtles. We only rented for an hour, but could easily have spent 2 hours on the water. This was not a strenuous kayaking experience.

The waters in the area were wonderfully calm and there was plenty to see as we paddled out into the river. Plenty of birdlife, pretty coastline and other things to see out on the river. Great time and highly recommend while visiting Nort East to round out your trip there.

My son and his pals just did a week of “Kids on Kayaks” and had a great time. It was a great balance of time on the water, interesting things to do, and fun conversation between all the kids. Highly recommend!
