The booking was easy, and the staff were excellent! Very helpful for us first time kayakers. The only issue we had was, after turning back from Turnip Rock, I had some trouble with the waves, and the kayak tipped over.

He was very rude and intimidating, especially to my wife. We realized later, we had every right to “rest and recover” Other than that, we had a great time! Just be aware of the Turnip Rock Cop wannabe, and don’t let him ruin your otherwise excellent experience!
