The Grand Strand is much more than a great beach. There is a whole different world waiting just a few miles inland along the rivers, creeks and marshes of the South Carolina Low Country. Fifteen minutes drive from downtown Myrtle Beach and you're on the Waccamaw River: a beautiful black water river with towering cypress trees draped in Spanish Moss, warblers singing in the brush, and swallow-tailed kites circling overhead (not to mention snakes and alligators)
Come kayaking with Black River Outdoors Center, and let one of our amazing guides show you a side of the Grand Strand that most visitors to the Myrtle Beach area miss completely. We offer two, four and six hour Guided Kayak EcoTours to a wide range of locations up and down the Grand Strand.!
New Afternoon Tour Option!!
In addition to our 9:00 am tours and early bird (6:30 AM) we now offer tours starting at 2:00 pm for those of you who want to paddle in the middle of the day and still see plenty of wildlife.
