About this experience

Do it on your own! For those with kayaking experience and wanting to go explore with friends and family without a guide, a kayak rental may be what you are looking for. Paddle through the tranquil waters of the Broad Creek Estuary in hopes of encounters with Hilton Head's playful bottlenose dolphins. Our staff with spend time with you before your departure going over the area with you, pointing you to the best spots for finding dolphins and other wildlife, and answering any questions you have before your departure. Along with the dolphins there's also the possibility of seeing manatee, otter, and a variety of beautiful bird species. If you do not have experience doing it on your own it might be best to join on of Kayak Hilton Head Inc's guided tours as kayak rentals are for those that do have kayaking experience. Guided tours or kayak rentals are both a great way to enjoy a relaxing experience with a high likelihood of seeing dolphins and other fun wildlife!
