Easy going kayaking tour - Awesome experience. It was a pretty mild kayak around to the Cathedral Cove. I would recommend this, even if you have no kayaking experience. The walking path is not open right now, and those who go around have to figure out how to slide down the broken part of the path. It's easier to just kayak. The tour guide was familiar with the area, so we were able to get a lot of fun information on the area.

Laid back paddle and delicious coffee on an iconic and stunning beach. Pure magic. - Loved every moment of this excursion. Nathan was a fun kayak guide and great beach barista. Learned a ton about the area, saw amazing sites, never felt rushed or herded around. The whole operation was run very smoothly, with top-notch kayaks and gear, guides who all seemed to love what they do, and when it looked like it would be better for us to kayak on a Friday morning instead of Thursday afternoon, our tickets were changed with zero stress or hassle. And finally... Cathedral Cove! C'mon, you have to go. Cannot recommend this company and paddle enough.

Amazing tour - We loved our cathedral cove tour with Georgia. We really liked the small group size and the relaxed pace of the tour. The double kayaks were very comfortable. Georgia shared lots of knowledge about local wildlife with us and pointed out places of interest along the way. The coffee, hot chocolate and cookies on the beach were a really cool touch. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Stunning blue water. - A fantastic kayak trip with our guide Andy. The water was beautifully calm and clear, saw lots of snapper and a few stingrays. Stopped at Cathedral Cove for coffee and tea made by the very able barista Andy. It was a very enjoyable morning on the water.

Amazing - We arrived late but they were great and quickly got us into the activity! The guide was great and took us close to the rocks, we kayaked through a cave, it was magical! Arriving at Cathedral Cove it was incredible. Few people and we were able to walk on the beach while waiting for them to prepare our cappuccinos! I loved it and I recommend
