Great day out with my daughter - My daughter and I went kayaking for the first time with Wyatt and Rocky. The tour was a good introduction for first timers. We also had an opportunity to try SUP, which we really enjoyed as well. Thanks for a fun afternoon!

Best Family Activity - This is our second time kayaking with Kokopelli and the reason we chose to do our trip with them again, because we had a great time. Our guides were very friendly and personable. My grandson is still talking about his paddle boarding fun. The sunset tour was great. Can’t wait for our next kayaking fun with them. Highly recommend!

Exceptional Guides - Wyatt & team did a great job of giving directions before & all throughout the kayak tour. The tour was timed perfectly well around the tides, and gave the opportunity to paddle through both the main channel and some of the smaller paths. My son especially enjoyed talking Brayden’s ear off about fishing lures and the sharks he caught the day before. As locals to Myrtle Beach, we look forward to many future trips with Kokopelli!
