Family Fun
Captain Grant provided a great experience for us 14 family members, from age 15 to 90. He was very friendly, and he educated us on the flora, fauna, geography, and culture of the area during our motorboat trip out to Page Island. The kayak tour was equally fun and informative. We strongly recommend this experience.

Highly suggest a private Kayak Tour with this group.
From booking to end of our trip we had the best experience and I highly recommend Outside Hilton Head. We booked a private kayak trip and were partnered up with Paddy who was amazing and if you can get him as your guide you are well taken care of. Our 2 hour kayak was filled with information about the island and the natural area we were kayaking through along with some great laughs along the way. While we did not see a dolphin I promise you Paddy’s dolphin call is worth the trip. We will be back and would do another private tour with this group. So professional and safe along with personal and friends. 5+ stars if I could.
Operator response
Thank you for the fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a great experience with Paddy. His knowledge and humor definitely make for an unforgettable tour. It’s also wonderful to know you felt safe and well taken care of throughout the experience. We look forward to having you back for another trip with us!
