It is best for these tours to leave in the morning and can return anytime before sunset on the given day.  These tours are a minimum of two days long and a maximum of five days long.  These tours are not always available.  I will be most likely to have time in my schedule to give these tours in May, September, and October.

Prices



The rate for one of these tours is typically 100-200 dollars per person per day depending on the details of the tour.


The details include whether you bring your own camping equipment or use mine, the size of your group, if you pay for and cook your own food or if I do and if I do provide the meals what the cost of ingredients are.  I input all these variables into a secret algorithm developed for me by scientist at NASA and get your tour price.

Overnight Island Camping Trips
All tours are a two hour minimum.

There is an additional charge of ten dollars for people who request a one person kayak instead of the standard two person kayaks.

If paying with a credit card all tours cost seven dollars and fifty Cents more per person and a 20% gratuity will be added.

I reserve the right to delay any tour by up to a half hour for any reason and you should plan any activities for after your tour accordingly.  The most common reason a tour would be delayed would be for weather conditions.
