We rented kayaks for 4 hours and were given a map of where we could safely go. I was a little nervous as it was my first time in a kayak and I am not exactly the most in shape person I know! My fears were for nothing as I was paddling like a pro within minutes! We explored out to the lighthouse and around the inlets and saw so many dolphins up close I just couldn't believe it! We saw the dolphins hunting in circles and throwing fish in the air just feet away. It was a magical experience. I can't wait to go again. The staff was incredibly helpful and professional. I can't say enough and highly recommend giving it a try!

Always look forward to jet ski fun, and this was another good time. Everything went smoothly and my wife and I were pointed to the area we'd most likely see dolphins. Did the usual speed runs and circles and kept our eyes peeled and finally were rewarded with numerous sightings. Was impressed that they take safety seriously as one of the renters was clearly not experienced when we started out and they took her right back to the dock and did not allow her to go out. Good call.
All in all a good experience.

I went on the jetski free ride and it was absolutely amazing and exhilarating. It had a lot of safety precautions like a boat rental video a bit of paperwork and a safety lesson on how to operate the jetski but it was all worth it. They said arrive at least 30 minutes early and we arrived an hour early and they lets us go ahead and sign the paperwork. Jacob was a really good coordinator I can't remember the other to guys names. Overall 10/10

I will NOT rent kayaks from this company again. It takes a lot for me to write a bad review of a kayak experience in beautiful scenery, but this company made what should have easily been a naturally great experience a bad one. We had a kayak adventure experience reserved for 3:30pm in the afternoon. The online paperwork said, in very strong words, that we should arrive 30 minutes early for the safety and information session. We arrived promptly at 3:00pm, and the kayaks weren’t ready until around 3:45. Then, right as we were hoping to leave, some jet skis came in. At this point, the kayaks finally ready for us were moved off to allow the jet skis to come in. Probably an hour after we got there, we were called over for the information session. We had gotten a really bad photocopy of a map and very little information on rules. We were told we could go to the lighthouse in one direction and a boat dock in the other. That was about it. When we made it to the lighthouse (staying 100 yards away as the rules stated), someone on a jet ski from the company came by to fuss at us for going to the lighthouse. This was literally part of the self-tour that was advertised. We were also told that jet skis took precedence over kayaks, and even though we paid $190 to rent the kayaks, we had no guarantee that we would be able to have them on the schedule as promised. Later when my husband was finished, he went to get the car keys from the office and had to sit around for a while because no one was in the office. This was a disappointing experience all around. We love Tybee, and everything is usually just wonderful. It was disappointing to end our trip on this note. I will definitely try kayaking these beautiful waterways again, but most definitely NOT with this company.

The description made it appear that this was a guided kayak tour and it was not. The instructions on our booking stated to arrive 30 minutes early. When we arrived 30 minutes early, they said they weren’t open for another 30 minutes and were not very friendly. The customer service was highly lacking. We ended up not going on the kayaks due to no guide and the rudeness of the employees.

Our review for this is mixed. Going to see the lighthouse was neat. The only way to it is by boat or kayak. After going by the island, we went over to the shore across the water and looked for shells. As we were there on the island, a couple of dolphins could be seen where we had been where we had crossed. The downside was the water was very choppy and difficult to maneuver. Our guide called back to the office and someone came out on a jet ski, must have been a supervisor because he preceded to instruct our guide in how to manage the group. Not sure if the tour wasn't well managed or if it was just the water. The directions say to come a half hour early and check in. We did so and then had to wait 20 minutes for instructions. There isn't really anything to do while you wait so we just sat in the car.

This was a beautiful tour of little tybee island and our ocean. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour unique to the group. We saw dolphins, a little shark, and lots of birds. We kayaked to the island and were able to spend about an hour exploring the island. We saw clams, crabs, stingrays, a bald eagle nest, and quick sand. The water was so calm and beautiful. My partner and I had a tandem kayak. Our guide taught us how to row and steer. Wear shoes you are comfortable getting wet and leave a towel in your car! Your legs will get wet from the paddle. I recommend for a solo trip or with friends!

Top notch outfit here! We are experienced kayayker but wanted to float unfamiliar waters, so we decided to sign up and take their tour. It was a great float. Freddie was awesome. He had tons of info on the island and on the habitat. Highly recommend using this company

We had a great experience! The guides were awesome with our kids and provided cool facts that kept them entertained as we paddled. Our daughter still talks about the quick sand incident and both kids loved seeing a giant stingray.

I was in the area and was looking for an outdoor activity that wasn’t too strenuous. My friend and I both enjoyed the kayaking tour to Little Tybee Island. Our guide, although not an expert was very knowledgeable and able to answer most of our questions and gave us interesting info the area.

Big riding area. Out in the bay. If you get lucky you see Dolphins in their natural habitat. Scenic views of the north shore of Tybee Island , Ft Pulaski, Cockspur beacon etc, etc.
Great way to take in Tybee Island's natural beauty 😊
