The Cherry Grove Grove Salt Marsh makes up the northern most point of North Myrtle Beach. It is nestled between the local Cherry Grove beach house community, the Atlantic Ocean, and Hogs Inlet. It is a thriving ecosystem filled with an abundance of marine life, shellfish, birds, and much more. Fed directly from the Atlantic Ocean the marsh water levels rise and fall every day with tides. At the low tide point much of the marsh is fully uncovered revealing much of the the sea floor and the crustaceans that inhabit the bottom of the marsh. We run our marsh tours at high tide which allows us to access every creek that makes up the marsh.
Get away from the chaos of Myrtle Beach during the Summer and lose yourself in the solitude that this thriving eco-system offers.
A thriving eco-system that is semi protected. The harvesting of mollusks (oysters, clams, mussels) is prohibited. This contributes to the clean waters, which attract an abundance of bird species and marine life.
The Cherry Grove Salt Marsh has tons of narrow winding creeks that we love to explore and paddle through. No two tours are ever the same!
Whether you are traveling with a large group, here for a special event, looking for a fun & unique team building activity, or just want to enjoy our tours in a more intimate environment.

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.

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.
