kayaking the clear way
Great people running the show. Helpful and kind for us crazy Yanks. My only wish would have been for warmer and sunnier day, but I cant ask that of the owners?? Remember to wipe off the bottom of the kayak with the blue towel for easier gazing, i didnt. Oops. Enjoy.

Thank you for the fantastic 🤩 review! We're delighted to hear you had a wonderful time despite the weather. Your feedback about wiping down the kayak is very helpful 👍 - we'll be sure to remind guests about that to maximize visibility for spotting all the incredible marine life. Please come back anytime, we'd love to have you explore the bay with us again soon! 🌊🌴🌞 Thanks for choosing Clearyak! 🙌

Disorganised and unsafe kayaking experience
The lack of clear signage, poor organization, and inadequate safety measures made the experience frustrating and disappointing. With better coordination and staff assistance, this could have been much more enjoyable.

Hey Sara, Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughtsâIâm really sorry to hear your experience didnât live up to expectations. It sounds like we dropped the ball on a few key things that day, and I appreciate you pointing them out. To touch on your concerns: the lack of clear signage is something weâve been limited on since Goat Island is a small beach, and weâre only allowed a compact setup to keep the public space accessible. That said, I've reviewed and ammended the confirmation email we send beforehand with some more information to hopefully make this easier for people in the future. On the organization and safety front, we take safety very seriously so have reached out to you to investigate what you believe made it unsafe.

Visit Goat Island!
A visit to Goat Island is a must do if you're in the area; either on the transparent kayak or snorkeling (haven't done the glass bottom boat so can't comment on this). We had a mostly clear day, however when the clouds came over visibility was impacted in the kayak. Great team of people, who create an awesome atmosphere. Can get quite busy but this just adds to the 'good time' vibe. Absolutely recommend.
