Kayaking to Waites Island and surf lessons on the Myrtle Beach shore are both well-represented here, and reviewers are consistently enthusiastic about both. Wyatt leads the kayak tours and comes up repeatedly for his knowledge of local wildlife and area history, while Brandon and Chase get high marks for surf instruction, with guests noting their patience and genuine passion for teaching. The operation itself seems refreshingly straightforward. Booking is easy, directions are clear, and equipment like dry bags are included without any fuss. Several guests mention returning year after year, which says a lot about the consistency of the experience. If you're trying to see a less touristy side of the area, the salt marsh kayak tours in particular seem like a solid choice. First-timers are well taken care of, and the guides clearly know how to read their audience. It's a genuine local experience run by people who care about what they do.
We've done Kokopelli two years in a row now, and if you want the real deal, I'd highly recommend it. My girls loved Brandon and Jesus and had an amazing time -- their surfing and confidence progressed quickly over the 3 days and their stoke is through the roof!!
