Whether you prefer standing up on a paddle board, sitting down in a kayak, or catching a wave while paddle surfing, touring with the Golden Isles Paddle Co. is one of the best ways to experience the beauty of coastal Georgia habitats. From viewing dolphins in the saltmarsh creeks to watching bald eagles soar over the beach, these tours will leave you wanting more.

Company owner John Krivec has spent years working as a guide on both the east and west coasts of the United States, including through his previous local company SSI SUP. Having spent more than a decade traveling and paddling throughout the U.S. and the Caribbean, John is now firmly planted on St. Simons and has spent the last several years paddling the local waterways of both St. Simons and Jekyll Island.
