From Transparent Kayak rental in Goat Island

Thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star review of your kayaking experience with us. We're thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic time out on the water. It's great to know that our staff were friendly, professional, and made safety a top priority. That's exactly what we strive for - to provide an incredible and secure adventure for all our guests. And it sounds like the kayaking itself was an absolute blast, with so many amazing fish to observe up close. As a non-swimmer, we're pleased to hear you felt comfortable and stable in our kayaks. Your feedback means a lot to us, and we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We're delighted you had such an enjoyable outing, and we hope you'll come back again soon for more awesome adventures on the water. Thanks again for choosing Clearyak!

fine

Tour guides were lovely. Couldn’t really see through the kayaks, found myself peering over the sides a bit more.

Perfect first kayak experience for the family

We had a great first-time kayaking experience thanks to the friendly, helpful staff who made us feel safe the whole time. One child loved kayaking, while the other enjoyed spotting fish, so it was a win-win for our family. Thanks for a really relaxing and enjoyable experience!

Money well spent

Not just fun for children, it’s totally different when you see fishes swam under, as a adult I’m fascinated by it too.
