The Dolphin trips are very exciting & lots of fun. Please understand this IS NOT a flat or calm water trip. It is very important that everyone going on this trip read this description. The Dolphin tours begin with a surf launch into the Atlantic Ocean. This trip takes place on the high seas. As we launch & return through the surf, we guarantee that YOU WILL get soaking wet & most likely flip over at some point. We only use sit-on-top kayaks, doubles and singles, so you will just fall out of these as they turn over. Everyone should be comfortable playing in the ocean surf. On warm days, we usually get in & out of the kayaks & swim. Kayaks are launched & returned individually by a guide standing in the water. We will launch into surf as tall as 3 or 4 feet & winds of 10 to 15 knots. Trips will be canceled if conditions exceed these measurements. Wearing a life jacket is required on all of our trips. The difficulty of this trip can vary greatly. Some days the ocean can be like a lake & other days we can have large surf, strong winds or currents. Some days we may have to paddle just to keep from being carried down the beach! Once through the surf we are on the High Seas with a rolling Ocean. If you have a tendency toward motion or SEASICKNESS, this trip will probably trigger it. Please visualize being a small boat on a rolling sea. Everyone should be told of the tendency toward seasickness. We kayak off the coast, but do not go too far. The Dolphins tend to congregate in one particular area, which is where we launch. Children as young as 6 or 7 can go on this trip if they are comfortable playing in the surf. Young kids or nervous adults are best in a double kayak with a more experienced/capable person.

This was an easy day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeraKHj5jLg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51Fv26SBUmw Price is $60 per person & includes kayak & all kayaking gear.

First Landing State Park hosts a pod of Dolphins as year round residences, the highest concentration of Osprey in the area and a pair of resident Bald Eagles. Seeing Dolphins or Eagles is only occasional but there are 8 to 12 Osprey nests along the 3-mile route we take, some are easily visible. You will not get a closer look at a wild raptor without binoculars. We launch from a beautiful beach shaded by Maritime Forest deep in the Park. We paddle above the sand flats of Broad Bay which are the Southeast border of the Park. We often see Egrets, Heron�s, Red Winged Black Birds and occasionally one of the nesting pair of Bald Eagles. Dolphins can sometimes be seen. The shoreline is alternating salt marsh and small sand beaches where at one point the remains of a once primary dune still reach 40 feet tall. If the tides are right we can paddle into White Hill Lake where we can see 4 to 6 Osprey nests around the Lake. For our half-day trips we stop along one of the many beaches for drinks and a snack, before returning to our original launch site. Spring: Some Dolphins are year round residences and Gulls are always there. Ospreys arrive and begin rebuilding last year�s nest. More Egrets and Herons come into the area. A Belted Kingfisher or two may be around. Red-winged Black Birds will begin arriving. Migratory song birds pass through on their way to nest up North. Summer: We are more likely to see Dolphins now because the summer migration is in. The young Osprey will be large enough to see the top of their heads in the nest and flying later in the summer. The Snowy and Great Egrets, Great Blue Herons as well as Common and Royal Terns are more frequent now. Fall: The Dolphins are still prolific through September, Herons, Egrets and Terns will remain through October. Blue-winged and Green-winged Teals can be seen on the open water, American Bittern in the salt marshes and Plovers and Sandpipers along the beaches. "Just wanted to let you know what a wonderful time we had on the kayaking adventure. The guides, Laurie 1 and Laurie 2, were wonderful, attentive, and fun to be with!! Gail, Lorraine and I, had a great time.... the lagoon was awesome.....Gail and Laurie got to see an Eagle and we got to see Osprey and Egrets and a Baltimore Oriole...it was a great experience!!!" --PAT D.C.

First Landing State Park hosts a pod of Dolphins as year round residences, the highest concentration of Osprey in the area and a pair of resident Bald Eagles. Seeing Dolphins or Eagles is only occasional but there are 8 to 12 Osprey nests along the 3-mile route we take, some are easily visible. You will not get a closer look at a wild raptor without binoculars. We launch from a beautiful beach shaded by Maritime Forest deep in the Park. We paddle above the sand flats of Broad Bay which are the Southeast border of the Park. We often see Egrets, Heron�s, Red Winged Black Birds and occasionally one of the nesting pair of Bald Eagles. Dolphins can sometimes be seen. The shoreline is alternating salt marsh and small sand beaches where at one point the remains of a once primary dune still reach 40 feet tall. If the tides are right we can paddle into White Hill Lake where we can see 4 to 6 Osprey nests around the Lake. For our half-day trips we stop along one of the many beaches for drinks and a snack, before returning to our original launch site. Spring: Some Dolphins are year round residences and Gulls are always there. Ospreys arrive and begin rebuilding last year�s nest. More Egrets and Herons come into the area. A Belted Kingfisher or two may be around. Red-winged Black Birds will begin arriving. Migratory song birds pass through on their way to nest up North. Summer: We are more likely to see Dolphins now because the summer migration is in. The young Osprey will be large enough to see the top of their heads in the nest and flying later in the summer. The Snowy and Great Egrets, Great Blue Herons as well as Common and Royal Terns are more frequent now. Fall: The Dolphins are still prolific through September, Herons, Egrets and Terns will remain through October. Blue-winged and Green-winged Teals can be seen on the open water, American Bittern in the salt marshes and Plovers and Sandpipers along the beaches. "Just wanted to let you know what a wonderful time we had on the kayaking adventure. The guides, Laurie 1 and Laurie 2, were wonderful, attentive, and fun to be with!! Gail, Lorraine and I, had a great time.... the lagoon was awesome.....Gail and Laurie got to see an Eagle and we got to see Osprey and Egrets and a Baltimore Oriole...it was a great experience!!!" --PAT D.C.

The Dolphin trips are very exciting & lots of fun. Please understand this IS NOT a flat or calm water trip. It is very important that everyone going on this trip read this description. The Dolphin tours begin with a surf launch into the Atlantic Ocean. This trip takes place on the high seas. As we launch & return through the surf, we guarantee that YOU WILL get soaking wet & most likely flip over at some point. We only use sit-on-top kayaks, doubles and singles, so you will just fall out of these as they turn over. Everyone should be comfortable playing in the ocean surf. On warm days, we usually get in & out of the kayaks & swim. Kayaks are launched & returned individually by a guide standing in the water. We will launch into surf as tall as 3 or 4 feet & winds of 10 to 15 knots. Trips will be canceled if conditions exceed these measurements. Wearing a life jacket is required on all of our trips. The difficulty of this trip can vary greatly. Some days the ocean can be like a lake & other days we can have large surf, strong winds or currents. Some days we may have to paddle just to keep from being carried down the beach! Once through the surf we are on the High Seas with a rolling Ocean. If you have a tendency toward motion or SEASICKNESS, this trip will probably trigger it. Please visualize being a small boat on a rolling sea. Everyone should be told of the tendency toward seasickness. We kayak off the coast, but do not go too far. The Dolphins tend to congregate in one particular area, which is where we launch. Children as young as 6 or 7 can go on this trip if they are comfortable playing in the surf. Young kids or nervous adults are best in a double kayak with a more experienced/capable person.

The Dolphin trips are very exciting & lots of fun. Please understand this IS NOT a flat or calm water trip. It is very important that everyone going on this trip read this description. The Dolphin tours begin with a surf launch into the Atlantic Ocean. This trip takes place on the high seas. As we launch & return through the surf, we guarantee that YOU WILL get soaking wet & most likely flip over at some point. We only use sit-on-top kayaks, doubles and singles, so you will just fall out of these as they turn over. Everyone should be comfortable playing in the ocean surf. On warm days, we usually get in & out of the kayaks & swim. Kayaks are launched & returned individually by a guide standing in the water. We will launch into surf as tall as 3 or 4 feet & winds of 10 to 15 knots. Trips will be canceled if conditions exceed these measurements. Wearing a life jacket is required on all of our trips. The difficulty of this trip can vary greatly. Some days the ocean can be like a lake & other days we can have large surf, strong winds or currents. Some days we may have to paddle just to keep from being carried down the beach! Once through the surf we are on the High Seas with a rolling Ocean. If you have a tendency toward motion or SEASICKNESS, this trip will probably trigger it. Please visualize being a small boat on a rolling sea. Everyone should be told of the tendency toward seasickness. We kayak off the coast, but do not go too far. The Dolphins tend to congregate in one particular area, which is where we launch. Children as young as 6 or 7 can go on this trip if they are comfortable playing in the surf. Young kids or nervous adults are best in a double kayak with a more experienced/capable person.
