Marshland Paddle: The back waters of Holden Beach are alive with birds, crabs, fish and other marine life. On this trip you'll escape into the smaller, winding creeks of coastal NC's marshland environment, an area best suited to exploration by kayak. Reservations required, easy, 2 hrs.
$45 per person (2 person minimum)
$65 per person (private group)

Eco Scavenger Hunt: The best time to explore the ecology of coastal marshlands is at low tide when the creeks are high and dry and the animals are out feeding. On this trip we'll paddle down the Intracoastal Waterway to a dry creek, then go on an exploratory walk. This is a great hands on trip for kids of all ages. CLOSED-TOE WATER SHOES REQUIRED (old sneakers will also work). Reservations required, easy, 2 hrs.
$45 per person (2 person minimum)
$65 per person (private group)

Mill Creek: This kayak trip starts at the docks of Varnamtown, a local fishing hub just a few minutes from Holden Beach. You will begin your adventure with a short paddle across the Lockwood Folly River and an up close look at locally handcrafted shrimp boats.  A feeder creek to the Lockwood Folly, Mill Creek winds up into a peaceful brackish environment away from the hustle and bustle of the beach and the river. Excellent birding opportunities and potential gator sightings are the highlights of this trip.  Bring a cooler and load up on local shrimp at the end of the trip. Reservations required, prior kayaking experience required, moderate, 3 hrs.  
$55 per person (minimum of 2)
$75 per person (private group)
