Overview
Our nature activities are a great way to experience Hilton Head Island by water. We get up close and personal with the salt marsh, oysters, and, by far, the vast number of our tours will see bottlenose dolphins. The dolphins are, of course, wild animals, so they come and go as they please. But in the summer months, the experiences run at nearly 90% seeing dolphins, and even in the off-season, the percentages are very high as the bottlenose dolphin population lives in the area year-round. We occasionally see manatees in the warmer months and, on occasion, get lucky and see a loggerhead turtle, mink, otter, or bald eagle. It's a great experience for all ages, and as Trip Advisor shows we have nearly all five stars and do our very best to show each and every guest a great time over the last 25 years! All ages are welcome, as generally, we will do our best to split into multiple groups based on groups with or without kids, as well as different experience levels. Come join the fun!

Itinerary
-
The Hilton Head Island Broad Creek Estuary is home to many bottlenose dolphins. In the estuary, we also find manatees on occasion, loggerhead sea turtles, and even mink or otters, as well as many species of shorebirds feeding in the salt marsh on crabs and shrimp. Bottlenose dolphins are the main attraction as they live here year-round, and the vast majority of tours will see them. While paddling through the calm estuary, you will see some of the million-dollar mansions, and if you'd like, learn about the history of the island and the locals' favorite beaches and restaurants while enjoying the surroundings of the salt marsh. Oh yeah...did we mention dolphins!
