Sunset Beach, Ocean Isle Beach and even Holden Beach vacationers can embark on a detailed exploration of all the wild on-the-water regions that the Cape Fear area is known for with an adventure that’s launched with Summertide Adventure Tours. Featuring a full range of kayaking tours that cover a myriad of wild regions that are seldom seen by everyday explorers, this tour company leads visitors on a full discovery of all the watery creeks, canals, and open waters that southeastern North Carolina has to offer.
There are three main tours that patrons can sign up for, which are seasonally available, and which all last for 2.5 – 3 hours. The Bird Island Tour explores an uninhabited nature preserve on the North Carolina / South Carolina border, the Tubbs Inlet Tour veers through the wide waters in between Sunset Beach and Ocean Isle Beach, and the Blane Creek Tour covers the tidal creeks that can be accessed via the old Sunset Beach Swing Bridge. All three tours present exceptional opportunities for bird and wildlife watching, and are guided by a friendly pro who shares local points of interest. Fun for all ages and skill levels, Summertide Adventure Tours allows visitors to enjoy the southern coastal corner of North Carolina at its natural best.
