They gave great information upon booking the reservation on the phone. Parking was very easy but depending what time you go I'd go sooner for parking! The women who checked us in was very sweet. She explained everything to us. She told us where to go and how to stay safe. The man who got us on the boards was equally as nice. He gave us a quick course on how to use the boards. The boards were much easy than I thought. I felt secure and got the hang of it pretty quickly. We paddled to an amazing area with a waterfall and past some beautiful houses and shoreline. I loved that you could kneel , lay , stand and just float in the water. It was definitely a fun day and I can't wait to do it again.

They've got an informative video if you're unfamiliar with the area and they're always happy to give you pointers. Sign up is easy. Equipment is clean and in good condition. The other folks out on the water are always so nice as well helping one another out with pictures...it's a great clientele. Do yourself a favor and go out and enjoy all that is summertime!

I highly recommend Connetquot River Kayaking! My first time I went with Rob, the owner, and a group…read moreof rather new Kayakers! I had never kayaked before and was more than very nervous. I had a panic attack not long after we set out and wanted to turn around or wait there for the group to pick me up on the way back but Rob took the time to talk me off the ledge telling me I could do it! He started near the back with me and helped me the whole way while still giving the others a great experience! I have gone out many times since and have even Kayaked down the Colorado river! I LOVE kayaking Now and couldn't wait until this year to get out there which we did yesterday!!! None of that would have been possible without this company and its wonderful owner who had more faith in me than I had in myself!! But I do now! I recommend this company to Everyone!

Seeking to ease her into a passion for paddling , I sought out a group experience on calm waters. Safe was the operative word. I saw a social media posting for a guided tour of the Connetquot charging a small fee for dropping in your own vessel. They run this tour weekend days. Until November. There was a group of about 17, some with their own kayaks or SUPs, others rented from the business. Rob provided great direction, was informative , and a genial host. Lisa and I probably had time during the 2 hours to have small conversations with everyone in the group. The canals and river were so easy to navigate, scenic, tranquil, even with some light powerboat traffic. Not an abundance of wildlife but we had a great close encounter with a great blue heron. We are probably comfortable doing this without guidance now, but might choose to join up again for the group experience! Check it out while the weather is fine and the waters are warm! P.S. - I fell out of the boat before we even launched. Looked the fool in front of all but that just started the day off with laughter.

Joe provides a judgement free zone, he's extremely patient, kind, and his directions don't carry any underlying tone that may discourage a beginner or frustrate an experienced paddler. There were (4) people in our party, w/ a total of (8) in our group. For our party, each of us of varying skill felt like we were personally attended to and not rushed or brushed off in any way. This guy Joe has got great people & teaching skills. We all would highly recommend a tour w/ the JK group. Thanks again, Joe Sincerely, Heather, Abby, Jeremy, & Rob

This summer we had more than one family reunion with multiple adults and children of ages ranging from 3 years to 19 years old.

Simply witnessing Eric's red kayaks out on the water is such a joyful experience but his and his staff member's skills make this an adventure not to be missed! They are very knowledgable and organized and afford their guests exposure to marine wildlife and the natural world that can't be missed! Eric has a truly unique personality and a gift for engaging people of all ages in the special beauty of the waterways to which we have access. Don't miss the opportunity for you and your children to share in this matchless adventure!

Parking wasn't an issue for us which was great. The paddle boards were amazing quality, great stability and very comfortable to stand/sit on. I loved that we were able to bring a small lunch bag on with us without it falling off the board. She had a map for us on hand so we knew where we were going since it was our first time in this area. We paddled through the canal which was much calmer and a lot to see. We came out by Bayard and just floated around before heading back. No issue. It was pretty straight forward to go there and back. She has merch back at the trailer which looked very cute. I would definitely rent again ! Great day.

I would highly recommend Moku Loa Paddle Tribe to anyone with Paddleboarding needs!…read more I had my first ever paddleboard lesson with them last week. I was nervous about losing my balance especially due to a recent concussion. The instructor really put me at ease and walked me through everything. With her guidance, I was able to learn how to correctly stand up, hold my paddle, balance, and maneuver the board. As an elementary teacher myself, I really admired my instructor's knowledge, patience, and ability to predict my needs before they even came up. I enjoyed it so much I came back for a second lesson with my husband! He caught up to my abilities extremely quickly! And this time, I was really able to take in the scenery and the beautiful area Moku Loa is based out of. The Oakdale Yacht Club itself feels like a vacation resort, but on the paddleboard you really get a chance to immerse yourself in the tranquil landscape. Seriously, the shoreline is absolutely gorgeous, not to mention the different wildlife we saw while paddling. Eventually, I made it to the Connetquot River and was able to take a quick swim before paddling back in! Just an amazing and fun day here on Long Island! Again, I would definitely recommend Moku Loa Paddle Tribe to anyone with Paddleboarding needs. And also for those of us who could just use a tranquil and refreshing break :)
