How Your Half-Day Tour Works

Arrival & Briefing

You'll arrive 30 minutes early. We go through safety, equipment fitting, and answer any questions. No rushing. Everyone gets the time they need.

Water Skills

We start in shallow water near the beach. Paddle grip, forward stroke, turning. You'll practice until it feels natural. About 30-45 minutes depending on your comfort.

Sheltered Bay Exploration

We paddle into one of the protected bays. Rock formations, wildlife, stunning views. This is where you'll see why people fall in love with paddling.

Return & Debrief

Back on the beach, we talk about what you learned and what you'd like to try next time. You'll leave knowing you've actually paddled — not just gone for a float.
