Kayak Hilton Head Waters

Explore Hilton Head's natural wonders from a kayak on Hilton Head. Born and bred in the Lowcountry, we’re a family-owned and operated business committed to sharing the beauty of our coastal home with you.

With over 60 years of combined experience living in the Lowcountry, our connection to the water runs deep. Generations of our family have cherished these shores since the 1920s, frequenting beloved spots like the Bluffton Fish Camps and Rose Dew Landing for leisure and angling. Raised by an avid fisherman grandfather, we were instilled with a profound respect for our aquatic surroundings. His words echo in our minds: ‘Appreciate the water, for it sustains us all.’

As owner and native kayak enthusiast, Dean Windley has been chasing waves from the shores of Costa Rica to the waters of Hawaii since his youth. Now, as parents ourselves, we relish spending quality time immersed in nature with our children. Whether paddling through serene waterways or marveling at the marine life that graces our path — each encounter with a playful dolphin reaffirms our love for this place we call home.

We are immensely grateful to be part of the laid-back and welcoming Lowcountry community, and we owe a debt of gratitude to our extensive network of family and friends. Their unwavering support fuels our passion and drives our mission to provide unparalleled experiences on the water. Join us on an adventure, and let's create memories that will last a lifetime.
