Weather and environment - The final decision on which route is the most appropriate for your trip is made by your captain (boat tours) or kayak guide (kayak tours). The decision to cancel a trip for safety/conditions is also made by your captain or guide. We do not usually cancel a trip because of light rain, drizzle or chance of showers. In fact, most people want to go because these conditions often result in some of the best trips and wildlife sightings. If the weather is severe and we cancel but you are unable to reschedule, you receive a full refund. Surprisingly enough, we are able to operate trips on the vast majority of most days during the season. We operate in the back waters of these barrier islands. We limit the number of participants per tour. For this reason, it is necessary for us to incorporate the following cancellation policy.

- Reservation dates/times may be changed without any charge by calling at least 48 hours prior to your original scheduled time.
