    5/5

    We were in Hilton Head for a wedding and were looking for something fun that we could all do together the day before, so we booked the early morning kayak tour which was perfect, and had such a great time! Our guide, Mike, was incredibly sweet, friendly, and made the whole experience really enjoyable. We were lucky enough to see a few dolphins during our tour! They stayed a little farther out on our trip, but it was still really neat getting to see them while we were out on the water. The kayaking itself was beautiful, relaxing, and ended up being the perfect group activity before the wedding. We had such a fun morning together, and Mike definitely made the experience even better. I’d absolutely recommend it if you’re looking for something fun to do in Hilton Head and a chance to see some local wildlife!
