About
Two choices on where to be dropped off. The first option, we call it the "Secret beach", is a much quieter option. It is way less crowded than the main beach on Keewaydin Island, so if you want a more chilled out, quiet, and relaxing experience this one may be for you. The second option is to be dropped off in the heart of the action at the main beach. This is a favorite hangout for locals, buzzing with activity, and there are usually lots of boats (particularly on the weekends). Along with the water taxi service, we also provide each passenger a beach chair with canopy, beach towel, souvenir shell bag, bucket & shovel for kids, beach games, complimentary water / soda and a complimentary fruit salad for the day. You’re also welcome to bring your own food aboard. And, we highly recommend that you bring bug spray, and sunscreen.
