We had an amazing time on our tour with James. He was super knowledgeable about the area and it's wildlife. His gear is top-notch and the places he'll take you are gorgeous!

Our tour guide James was the best. He made for great conversation and had a wealth of knowledge about the area. The kayaks were really nice and cut through the waves effortlessly.
