Our visit to the 67th Street Paddle Cove was nothing short of amazing! We are a first time family of four going on our eco tour with Natalie and it was everything we had wanted and more.
Natalie was super chill and accommodating. She gave us a brief instruction which put our minds at ease. We had some easy practice runs in the cove before she joined us and lead us out to the bay. We saw minnows, Egrets, cranes and Herrings as well as Terrapins and clams. We meandered through the marshes then spent some time on the beach catching minnows and clams.
Natalie was knowledgeable, friends and very easy

We did an eco tour with the LOVELY Emma who did a wonderful job. It was easy for someone like me who has no upper body strength. It was very relaxing and we made great conversation between seeing horseshoe crabs, jelly fish, birds etc. THANKS EMMA!

Surprised my mom with a kayaking adventure and it couldn't have gone better! First, I had to make reservations over the phone and whoever I spoke was was very assuring and nice as could be. She answered my questions and concerns as this was out first time kayaking. Secondly, Kayla was our guide for the day...absolutely amazing. My mother had concerns about the depth of the water. She assured her that she'd be fine. BTW the bay is so shallow kids can walk through it! Forget the life jacket you won't die. Lastly, the eco tour was incredibly enjoyable, affordable, and perfect for those

Had a great time! The location was nice, not in a crowded area, there is convenient parking right in front of the stand. Good prices and nice and easy. The two people at the front were really nice. Great for a little kayaking trip, I'll probably go back again to try paddle boarding!
