Frequently Asked Questions

Most frequent questions and answers

All of our Tours are great for families to spend some quality time together out on the water experiencing the beauty of North Myrtle Beach. Our most popular tour for families is our Private Island Adventure Kayak Tour, where we paddle out to a completely undeveloped Island. On the Island your family can explore the island, search for some of the best sea shells o the Grand Strand, or just play and relax in the sand or in the water. Your family will also have some great photo opportunities, our guides are more than happy to take some awesome pictures in the best locations on the island for this years family portrait.

Expect to smile, laugh, and have fun all while enjoying the outdoors. On each of our tours you will see different bird species to include the Great Egret and Herons some of our local larger bird species. You will also encounter fish jumping through the water and if we are lucky enough we will see some bottle nose dolphins swimming through the Hogs Inlet.

We recommend that you bring sunscreen, water, snacks, and a great fun attitude ready for an awesome adventure with Trailblaze Adventure. In case you need to step out of your kayak at some point, we recommend water shoes or sandals (not flip flops). A hat is useful for some people as well. We’ll provide the flotation vests, but if you have one that you are comfortable with, bring it as well. And don’t forget your camera as there will be plenty of great photo opportunities.

No experience is required. We enjoy and take pride in teaching first-timers.

No, it is good if you are in a moderate physical condition. Our tours are on flat water and go at a slow pace. Our tour guides also always carry a tow rope that can be used to assist someone if needed. 

No, our insurance company does not allow alcohol consumption on our tours.

No, because it may bother other paying customers.

Any age as long as they are 30 lbs or more and in a two person kayak with an adult. Our smallest life jacket is made to fit a 30 lb child. Our shortest tour for children is on the water for about 1 ½ hours. This time goes quickly and most children are great, some even fall asleep with the motion of the kayak.

Any age, especially if they are in a two person kayak with a strong kayak partner, the double kayaks are perfect for this scenario.

We recommend that a kayaker should be 13 years or older to go in their own kayak.

We do kayak in wind and rain. If you however do not feel comfortable in the conditions of the day you may reschedule your tour to suit your own comfort level.
