Awesome first-time Kayaking experience!

We had such a great experience with John Markisz! He was welcoming, professional, and made the entire tour feel fun and relaxed from beginning to end. What really stood out was how knowledgeable he was. He shared so much about the local wildlife, fish, plants, waterways, and even the history of the area, so it felt like we were learning the entire time without it ever feeling boring or overly serious. He explained things in such an interesting way and was always happy to answer questions, which made the experience feel even more special. You can tell he genuinely knows and loves the area and enjoys sharing that knowledge with others. I would definitely recommend booking with John, it was fun, educational, and easily one of the highlights of our trip!

Serenity, a classroom, beauty on the water

Get out on the beautiful “creek” at Shelter Cove Harbor and Marina. Reese was our knowledgeable and spirited guide. We learned about and observed oyster beds and clutches, wildlife, tides and ecosystems. A sunset kayak which offered serenity, a little exercise and this evening a gorgeous sunset!!

Relaxing, serene experience!

We had a terrific evening sunset kayak tour with our guide, Whitney Kitchen. We were fortunate to enjoy a private tour, just my wife and youngest son. We have been coming to HHI since 1983 and saw views and wildlife that we have never seen, not to mention many dolphins, very up close and personal. And, her support staff were extra pleasant, professional and courteous. We recommend Outside Hilton Head's kayak tour 100%. Thanks to Whitney for a large time!

Operator response

Thank you for joining us on the Guided Sunset Kayak Nature Adventure! We’re so glad Whitney and the team made it such a special evening. Seeing Hilton Head from a new perspective after so many years—and with dolphins up close—is pretty hard to beat. We truly appreciate the recommendation!

Lots of dolphins and wildlife

There is no other experience like kayaking in broad creek. Being able to paddle in the channels through the oysters and grass was amazing. The birds and shrimp moving all around were fun to see up close. We were lucky to see tons of dolphins and crabs. The biodiversity of the creek and surrounding water ways is truly amazing. It is good for people of all skill levels. You will get wet from water coming off the paddles so come prepared.

Operator response

Thank you for joining us on the Guided Sunset Kayak Nature Adventure! We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring Broad Creek and seeing so much wildlife up close. It really is such a special way to experience the Lowcountry. We appreciate the recommendation and hope to have you back on the water again soon!

Lovely Trip

My husband and I booked a last minute trip while we were on vacation. Every step was simple and every person we spoke to was friendly and helpful. The guide, Whitney, was super knowledgeable, friendly, and fun. We didn’t see the bigger mammals since it was high tide, but we saw lots of birds and fish and other small critters, and the sunset was beautiful across Broad Creek. It was an excellent trip!

Operator response

Thank you for the wonderful review of our Guided Sunset Kayak Nature Adventure! We’re so glad Whitney made your trip fun and informative, and that you enjoyed a beautiful sunset on Broad Creek!
