Paddle Up for Family Fun

Our guide, Nolan, was cheerful & upbeat, while sharing his knowledge about the marine life & geographical history. By design, we were navigated through calm waters & casually taught about our surrounding salt water habitat, including ancestral interactions that nurtured the elements to become what they are today. Our family had an exciting time, watching many dolphins play & snack! We appreciated Nolan’s thoughtfulness and expertise —— Highly Recommend

So much fun!

It was my and my families first time kayaking. Nolan was an amazing guide, very personable and spent time checking in and chatting with everyone. He was very knowledgeable and knew where to spot wildlife. We saw several dolphin’s and manatee’s. I have definitely found a new hobby.

Take This Tour (Paddleboarding) w/ Nolan!

Wow!! When my husband and I came to the area for vacation, we knew there were plenty of options in the area. When googling typical tourist activities in the Palm Coast area, I came across this tour and knew it was our speed. Parking was a breeze, the meetup was just as easy, but the catch was that, when we were given the option of using a paddleboard instead of using the tandem kayak, my husband volunteered us! I’m fairly impulsive and was wearing clothes I didn’t mind getting dirty so I agreed. Our guide, Nolan, who was LITERALLY the best, let us know that we werent going to have a problem learning how to paddle boarded and showed us the ropes. To my surprise, was INCREDIBLY beginner friendly and actually ended up being the highlight for us. So easy, in fact, that I was even able to stand at one point, as was my husband. It really enhanced the entire experience and allowed us more freedom to move around, spend time together, and move at our own pace. We must’ve been out there for a couple of hours but the time really flew by. Nolan was fantastic company and because of his upbeat positivity, thorough knowledge, and friendly personality, my husband and I both want to do this same tour with Nolan when we come back next year :) A sincere thanks for such a wonderful experience!
