What to Bring
Clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting wet
Sunscreen, hat, drinking water to last all day, and a picnic lunch
You will need to be comfortable outside for 6 to 8 hours, able to paddle for most of that time and be able to go on a beach walk to explore the area.
Stunning, pristine waterways, white sand beaches, and
moss-hung maritime forests are the hallmarks of Georgia's wild and lonely
Barrier Islands. Our full day trips give you a satisfying taste of Georgia's
coastal wilderness, meandering through the tidal marshes and exploring
beaches accessible only by kayak. With guides well versed in the local
and natural history of the area, you will come away with fascinating insight
into the wilds of the Georgia coast.
Little
Tybee Island Protected Estuary Full Day Trips
Little Tybee Island is a chain of inland hammocks and small barrier islan ds
connected by a maze of tidal creeks. Largely deserted even in summer months,
the area is accessible only by boat. A graphic example of dune formation
and maritime forest evolution, Little Tybee has a progression of palm,
juniper, bay, pine and live oak trees. It is inhabited by dolphin, raccoon,
gray fox, mink, feral pig, deer and alligator. There are no permanent
human dwellings. The island has several miles of beachfront, accessible
from inland rivers flowing to the sea. We can offer protected waterway paddling with birding, beachwalking and wonderful lunch spots.
Little Tybee Island Open Water Full Day Trips
Join an intermediate full day trip and do some mileage to explore the area and take some of
the lesser traveled cuts and backwater passages. We'll go down to the
south en d of Little Tybee for lunch and then paddle back through the ocean
to one of the back river landings.
Put in some miles on the way out, practice some navigation skills
and on the way back catch some surf and do some rough water practice.
Join us on the full and new moon tides that will be very high. At high tide we won't even have to stay
in the channel we can paddle over the grass and take short cuts to go
fast and far. This is an opportunity to do some paddling that we don't
get to do until the lunar phases bring spring tides.
Prerequisite: intermediate paddlers with a reliable roll.
Ebenezer Creek
A blackwater river that flows so slowly you could paddle it in either
direction. The trip runs for seven miles through a cypress forest straight
out of Tolkien's Trilogy. Thousands of cypress knees reach up to meet
the Spanish moss like stalactites and stalagmites in a watery cave. The
single best word to describe this place ? "Enchanting."
Skidaway
Narrows
The narrows has the best summertime osprey viewing area around. Protected waters lead to large
hammocks and a Civil War gun embankment. Long route takes you past the
Isle of Hope marina and a number of interesting sail boats.
