Birchpl - Paddleboard Rentals
5
My teen kids and I had a terrific time paddleboarding, the key to our success was an early start (never easy with teens, but worth it). We were out before 9am, which was great for 2 reasons: 1. much less wind/rough water 2. much less boat traffic.
No tour for us, we've all paddleboarded before so we went out on our own. Even if you haven't, it's easy with just a little balance. Shem creek is a nice location, went out toward Charleston, plus down a tributary near a golf course. Enjoyed the sites, saw lots of birds / oyster shells / turtles / jumping fish, but the highlight was coming back. My daughter and I watched a dolphin surface about 6-7 feet from my son in the creek, terrific up-close view, wish we had a camera!
Definitely got tougher/windier as we finished up close to noon, so go early!
