"Great kayaking experience. Mike didn't just give us a kayak and say "good luck". He taught us basic kayaking form and gave us tips to account for the tide and wind on our trip. He's clearly an experienced kayaker. It was a beautiful route and very relaxing! There were lots of brown pelicans diving for fish and lots of fish jumping."

"What would you want in a Paddle Board Rental company? Competent workers? Good quality equipment? A company that puts safety first? Good value for your money? Paddle NC meets and exceeds all of those criteria - but the real magic is the people. I was already impressed by the easy online registration system, and when I had a question the staff was friendly on the phone as well. When we arrived we were greeted and got started quickly. The worker talked us through the equipment, made recommendations for different boats based on our size and age, and then went through a thorough "how to" demonstration which included all the necessary safety tips. The kayak trip it's self was all the fun and outdoors exercise we had anticipated - so in my opinion all of that is enough to give this company 5 stars on it's own, but my great experience didn't stop there. When out on the Kayaks, I somehow misplaced my car keys - we didn't realize this until we had arrived back at the end of our day. We searched the boats, and the vests, and everywhere... no keys to be found. The worker offered to take us on his power boat back down to a shore we had beached on to look for the keys - it was his own personal boat, personal time, and gas but he didn't even think twice. We didn't find the keys. I got my family home in an Uber, and then my wife and I came back to try and deal with the car. My wife wanted to look in the boats one more time, so she walked down and found a gentleman still working, but the boats were locked up. She explained what had happened and he offered to take the locked up boats back off the rack AT THE END OF HIS DAY so we could look again. He pulled the first boat down, lifted and shook it, then opened up the hatches and there were my keys! This man, and his willingness to be helpful saved our day and saved us a fortune in towing expenses. He easily could have just made this our problem, it was the end of his long day and I'm sure he wanted to go home. But he didn't sigh at us, or look sideways, he was genuinely interested in helping us. I will use this company over and over and over again, and I'll tell everyone! Safety, equipment and value are important but the magic in your experience is going to come from the staff that works with you, and in our case they really made for a great day."

"From the moment I talked on the phone to the owner of the company, till I got out of my kayak, the experience was undeniably the most professional and enjoyable. Thank you again for a fantastic day out on the water! We will be back!"
