You will then take a scenic boat excursion through the backcountry creeks and rivers near Hilton Head, stopping for dolphins and other wildlife along the way. Our destination is Outside Hilton Head’s private island, called Page Island. This remote location is only accessible by boat, and is most often compared to the set of a ‘Survivor’ show, the perfect outpost to begin this distinctive kayak tour.
