The tour is designed for intermediate to advanced paddlers, so guests should have a reasonable level of fitness and comfort with kayaking. A safety briefing leads the way, and Coast Guard-approved life jackets are provided. There will also be opportunities to stop for photos as you absorb the local ecosystem. Each tandem kayak accommodates a combined weight limit of 385 lb; solo kayaks are available for those who exceed this or for uneven group sizes, with a 325 lb weight limit.
