After waiting the fog cleared & I was contacted again at 12 pm to say the boat has mechanical problems. I was given no timeline. I had to leave due to other scheduled activities. After two & a half hours of waiting (9:30 am - 12 pm) my family & I left the beach. I was contacted at 12:30 but 3 hours of waiting for a one hour boat ride got really ridiculous.

Instead of pulling us to safety, the staff told us not to return and to stay out in the storm. When we finally came back after 30 minutes, they refused any refund, not even for unused fishing gear. Safety and compassion were completely absent. Do not risk your well being or your money with this business. Their reputation looks good on sunny days, but when conditions turned dangerous, they abandoned responsibility. Never again.

They told us if we wanted to we could reschedule, which I was so thankful that they were honest about that rather than just making money and taking us out and the choppy water Went back the next day and it was a gorgeous day.

Warning, imagine someone standing over you pouring 5 gal buckets of water on top of your head. over and over. we could go nowhere else but home after, drowned rats, warning, wear bathing suits only, and plastic or croc shoes. They really should tell you this at the ticket booth, we saw one ruined phone, lost glasses, and lost hats. i was holding onto my prescrip glasses the whole time. its not rough, just soaking wet and wind. $20 is ok for the ride up the coast, but dont expect speed thrills. and either wear suits or have extra clothes in your car. wrap your wallet in plastic and leave your phones at home.

They also described where to park when we got there. The guys were super friendly and got us all set up very quickly. I rented a stand up paddle board, and my husband rented a kayak. We were able to leave our things with them while we went out on the water. The water itself was really peaceful and relaxing. My standup paddle board rental only cost $20 for the hour, which I thought was totally reasonable. FYI, if you need to change, you can use the bathroom in the Princess Bayside. It wasn't the nicest of bathrooms, but at least it was something.

First time paddle boarding for both my better half & I. Def a fun experience. Bit of a workout too…read morewhich I'm always down for. I could tell my hip stabilizers & quads had been utilized (from all the balancing) later in the day haha. Reasonable pricing for an hour. For 2 ppl came to like $43. Be prepared to go for an hour cuz they don't have shorter time increments. Or just buy an hr and come back to shore when you're over it. Honestly; you'll need the hour just to acclimate to maneuvering the board. The place also offers glow in the dark paddle boarding! Looks cool but I'd be weary of any sea creatures in the bay at night. I've been watching way too much shark week/fest on Nat Geo lately lol. Only downfall in my opinion is that not all the instructors are made equal. Saw an older man & younger guy teach a couple groups before us and both were very thorough with their paddle board tutorials. This girl that I thought was just another paid customer approached us out of nowhere like "you ready?!"... oh ok no intro. She was quick with her instructions and def got us into the water fast. Seemed like she was ready to clock TF out for the day before she even started. I had fun for my 1st paddle board experience. I didn't fall. Success!I just would've been even better without this girl instructor's negative vibe. Issa whole mood that I wasn't feelin' at all. But she

I parked my vehicle in the restaurant parking lot. We had to wait about 15 minutes for our boat to return from their current tour. When our boat arrived they unloaded their passengers so we could board for our tour. Our boat was packed with too many customers. We were on a high powered boat. We went out to the inlet and then turned around because the waves were too strong to go out into the Atlantic Ocean. We returned to the bay and eventually saw the wild ponies on Assateague Island. After seeing the wild ponies we returned back to the dock. The bay was littered with sand bars. Luckily our boat had a depth finder. There was one very large sand bar when we returned to our dock. Our captain knew where all the sandbars were located so he avoided them. Overall our cruise took about 1 hour. We were pleased with our cruise. More to come regarding our lunch.
