Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for renting kayaks? Can kids join?

A: Yes, kids can join, but they should be able to paddle on their own, at least a little! The rental is best for those with kayaking experience, so if your kids have paddled before, they should be fine. Just make sure they're comfortable in the water and wearing life jackets. You can ask the staff about age recommendations when you arrive.

Q: What should I wear for kayaking? Anything specific?

A: Definitely wear something comfortable that you don’t mind getting wet! A swimsuit is ideal, plus a quick-dry shirt if you want more coverage. Don’t forget sunscreen, sunglasses, and maybe a hat! Flip-flops can be okay, but water shoes or sandals with straps are recommended so you don't lose them.

Q: What if the weather is bad? Can we reschedule?

A: If the weather looks sketchy, definitely call Kayak Hilton Head ahead of time. They’re usually pretty flexible about rescheduling for bad weather. Just keep an eye on the forecast, and they can help you find a good time to go that works for everyone!

Looking to rent kayaks on Hilton Head! Any tips?

Hey everyone! I’m considering renting kayaks for a family outing on Hilton Head Island next month. We want to explore the Broad Creek Estuary and hopefully see some dolphins! Has anyone done this before? Any tips for first-timers like us? Also, what’s it like navigating around there? Thanks!

Just rented kayaks at Hilton Head and it was AMAZING!

I just got back from kayaking at Hilton Head and it exceeded my expectations! We saw a bunch of dolphins swimming nearby. The staff was super helpful in pointing us to the best spots. If you’re thinking about this as a gift, do it! It’s perfect for anyone who loves the outdoors. Just make sure they have some kayaking experience!
