description: Join us for a one-of-a-kind kayak adventure, perfectly timed with the high-tide, offering exclusive access to one of the most ecologically rich and scenic areas around Hunting Island.

We’ll begin our journey paddling out toward a well-known gathering spot for bottlenose dolphins. With a bit of luck and a quiet approach, we may see them surfacing and feeding in their natural habitat, offering unforgettable moments just a paddle’s length away.

From there, we’ll wind our way deep into the salt marsh, a hidden world of winding waters and wildlife activity that comes alive with the tide. Think of it as a saltwater safari—home to ospreys, herons, egrets, jumping mullet, and maybe even the occasional sea turtle. Every twist in the creek reveals something new.

This tour is perfect for nature lovers, photographers, or anyone wanting to experience the wild side of the Lowcountry.
