One of the best things about the Cape Fear area is that we are surrounded by water that is suitable for exploration by kayak. We can deliver boats to your residence, your AirBnB, or one of the public boat launches.

  • Ready to explore Masonboro IslandWe can meet you at Trails End Park.

  • Have just a couple of hours and want to experience cypress swamps and watch birds. Grab a friend and explore Greenfield Lake

  • Staying at Carolina Beach State Park? We will see you at the boat launch as early as 7 am. 

  • Looking for shark's teeth and other treasures? Meet us at River Road Park and explore Shark Tooth Island
