Our weight limit is no more than 250 pounds per person and no more than 425 pounds per 2 people that are in the same kayak. All of our kayaks are double kayaks. Unfortunately our kayak manufacturer has given us this strict limit of 250 pounds per person and we cannot exceed this limit.

Each of our kayaks are tandem (made for 2 paddlers). However, the seats are removable and if you have an odd number of paddlers in your party we are able to accommodate the kayak as a single.

Keep in mind, the same 250 pound PER person weight limit still applies even if taking a kayak out as a single.

Tips are greatly appreciated. We like to say, “If you enjoyed your ride, tip your guide!”

Standard US gratuity is 20%!

A mandatory gratuity of 20% will be added for groups 11 or more.

Alcohol is not allowed on any of our tours.

• We specialize in clear kayak eco tours and are the best experience on the water.
• Tours cap out at 10 participants, which is the perfect size to hear your guide and have conversations along the way. If even 10 is too many for you, we also offer private tours for a tailored experience.
• Our kayak care and cleaning methods ensure your kayak is clear so you can have unmatched visibility into the water. San Marcos has clear water, so you might as well be in the clearest boat!
• We only hire the best guides who are personable, knowledgeable, and help you find unique wildlife.

• A positive attitude ready for adventure!
• Shoes you don’t mind getting wet; please note shoes are not permitted to be worn in the kayak, but will sit beside or behind you.
• Non-disposable water bottle to stay hydrated
•  A phone to capture those candid shots!
• Wear clothes/swim suit you don’t mind getting wet

Yes, but due to the experience level of the paddle being intermediate, we welcome children 6 years old and up to join. Each person under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult 18 years or older in a kayak. Due to the level of experience needed for this adventure we cannot accommodate groups that have more children than adults in their party on the tour. We love having the entire family out and kids love this tour!

Our tours are made for any skill levels to participate, we will have basic tips and tricks to help you maneuver the waterways. Some paddling may be considered intermediate as we paddle against a 3mph current and some mild rapids, but we try our best to paddle at a pace that is convenient for every paddler! We do require all guests to stay with the group.

Yes! We invite you to swim before or after your tour near our launch spot. The water depth typically ranges between 4-5 feet, though variations may occur based on the specific section of the river and recent weather conditions.

Yes! We love our furry friends! Please bring a towel for your pet to sit on during the tour to prevent any scratching of the kayak by their nails.

Yes! Parking is available at the lot we use, but please note that it is managed by a third party and starting July 1st, requires payment for all non-San Marcos residents. We recommend arriving 15-30 minutes prior to tour time to park, pay (through app or kiosk), and find your guides!

Parking is $10 for up to 2 hours and $15 for over 2 hours. On Texas State event days and holiday weekends (Friday through Monday for Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day), a $25 flat fee applies.
