Guided offerings focus on easy, accessible routes through Delaware’s Inland Bays that are suitable for beginners, families, and small groups. Tours include interpretive commentary about local wildlife and coastal habitats and conclude near popular shoreline points like James Farm for beach and observation tower access.

Equipment comes from recognized brands and aims to meet recreational paddlers’ needs.
EcoBay Kayaking Adventures emphasizes safety and convenience: guided tours are led in small groups, staff provide basic instruction for new paddlers, and delivery/pick-up services simplify logistics for vacationers. The business operates from Ocean View, Delaware and markets experiences on Indian River Bay. By combining guided eco education with self-guided rental flexibility, EcoBay Kayaking Adventures caters to visitors seeking scenic paddling, wildlife viewing, and family-friendly water recreation in Delaware’s Inland Bays.
