A great time!
What a wonderful couple of hours we had. Water was beautiful and we saw many turtles. Very friendly service and is something we would definitely do again.

Kayaking
Seat backs would have been more comfortable. Rubber washes on all of the paddles. Friendly host.

Peaceful Paddle with a Touch of Wildlife
We hired a double kayak (two people in one) for about an hour and had a great time paddling around the bay. It was self-guided, which gave us the freedom to go at our own pace and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. We even spotted a turtle’s head pop up — a nice little surprise! The experience was a good mix of light workout and fun. The fresh air and calm water made it really refreshing. The owner was super friendly and easy to chat with :) If you're looking for something active but relaxing, this is a great way to spend an hour on the water. Definitely recommend it!

Mother/Daughter kayak excurision
My daughter and I had a relaxing paddle along the shore. The guide was super knowledgeable and helped us get the kayak to the water. He even threw in free paddle boarding when our original tour was cancelled. It's always great to have a chat with an imported local passionate about Airlie Beach. I highly recommend this activity if you are in the area.
