Experience of a lifetime for an autistic person - The Kayak Tour guys were very accommodating with my autistic son. They were very sensitive and made him enjoy the Kayaking experience. I will recommend them for every family with a handicapped person.

First time experience. - I have visited from Ontario many times and had wanted to try kayaking. I booked the early paddle and loved the experience. Gareth gave me the option to go solo or to use a double kayak. With it being my first time I opted for double. I was given excellent pre paddling instruction . We toured around and I was amazed at the ecology within the harbour. Gareth has a deep knowledge of the areas ecological systems and geography which I truly appreciated. Learning about the history of the harbours infrastructure should also be noted. I highly recommend if you want to spend a couple of hours to do a tour with these people. Next visit in October if they are still offering tours I will definitely be booking again. I should mention that I am in my 50’s and in moderate shape!

Perfect day in the harbour - Our guide Kyler was knowledgeable and kind. He paced the trip so that everyone could keep up and also so that we could take. Bunch of photos. We saw seals up close, which was exciting, and Kyler kept us and the seals safe.

Awesome Kayaking every Time! - The Ocean River Sports team is on the money! My family and I have rented kayaks in both locations numerous times in a variety of weather conditions. The team has always been super accessible, focused on safety, and so very helpful. The equipment -- particularly the boats -- is good quality and in good working order. For instruction, you can't beat this outfitter. All coaches have been fantastic...and a specially shout out to Corri!!!
