Incredible experience! Our guide, Garrick (G), was immensely knowledgeable about the area and assisted us in how to best row the kayak. This is a long kayak and hike tour, and it flew by with all of the beautiful sights and information. We would recommend 100%

Peaceful and beautiful kayaking/hiking trip with lots to see and learn about local plants and flowers. Harrison was a fun, chill, knowledgeable tour guide. He had all kinds of interesting things to share about the plants, animals, and culture. Gave us some great tips for places to snorkel and visit while we are here. Thanks, Harrison! Highly recommend this excursion.
