Join us on Sunday, April 2nd for our Annual Shark Tooth Easter Egg Hunt! This year’s Easter Egg Hunt will have two dedicated time slots. You can choose between 10 AM & 1 PM. Each hour long event will include 3 rounds of egg hunting.
Wildlife Update
News from nature! Early summer is such an exciting time in the marsh. We have the arrival of migratory & transient species like sea turtles, painted buntings & red winged blackbirds. If lucky enough, you also may see the more rare roseate spoonbill.
Loyalty Program
Did you know about our loyalty program? COA proudly offers loyalty cards in addition to group & military discounts. We also offer 10% off anytime you book more than one activity within a week. For those locals who like to come out and enjoy regular rentals, or have family out on guided tours, we offer a punch card-style loyalty card. The card is “stamped” once per visit (not per person) and can be redeemed for a $30 value on the fifth visit.

Fossil Hunting 2022
Starting April of 2022, we will be offering our guided Fossil Hunting Tours four days a week. Timed around low tide, these tours offer an incredible chance to enjoy the Lowcountry’s scenic marshes, abundant wildlife, and walk away with a variety of fossil material.
Full Moon Tours
Come out to Bowen’s Island and see Charleston through a whole new perspective. The entire experience is sensational. We venture onto the water just as the sun starts to paint the sky in vivid pastels. After a few last stubborn rays of the day escape over the horizon, watch as the moon illuminates the quiet salt marsh. We feel that this final, moonlit portion of the tour is the most special. Paddling at night offers a peaceful, yet adventurous feeling for both experienced and novice paddlers.
