I was a bit nervous about the whole experience given my lack of swimming skills. We arrived at the dock and were greeted by Clare who gave us a waiver to fill out and then went over the instructions, she also attached life vests on our paddles since I was concerned about the water. The water was very calm which instantly made me feel more comfortable, Clare gave us very simple instructions and had such an easy going attitude that I volunteered to go out first! She also explained that the water was quite shallow and even though I'm only 5 feet tall, I would be fine if I fell in. It was a small group of 3 so she was able to provide guidance to everyone. We had a great time gliding on the water and looking around the tall grass surrounding us. We stopped for a bit on the beach and Clare took pictures of us which was nice since we left our phones in the car. Everyone had a great time, if you're considering trying stand up paddleboarding then you should definitely try this place. We also met Joe at the end of the lesson and he was super nice. I can't stress enough how awesome Clare was! Overall we had a great time and with the affordable prices look forward to our next visit!

This summer we had more than one family reunion with multiple adults and children of ages ranging from 3 years to 19 years old. The highlight of each event was providing them with the opportunity to participate in Eric's Camp and they're still talking about the awesome experience. 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!

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.

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.
