Coastal Bend Kayak

We had a great time with Coastal Bend Food Bank guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and helpful. Wonderful wonderful time and you get to be out and about in the marshlands of this area. You see a lot of wildlife.

I don't put a 5 star review out there often, but if you are looking for a rental, this is the place! I called and talked to Hector. He is great to work with and is a great source of information! We rented three kayaks on the Saturday of Labor Day Weekend. We agreed on a time and a place and he was there early with all the gear we agreed to. I coordinated a pick up time when we were done and Hector was on it. The equipment is in great shape and the service is super. I will be back again! Thanks Hector

Rented some kayaks for a couple days this weekend from Hector. He's a great guy that has great customer service

What an amazing morning we had with Hector our tour guide. He is fantastic. We learned so much about the oyster beds, the different birds, fish, lighthouse, etc. he provided clean and well kept equipment to use. Was informative, comical, and down right fun! Thank you for an amazing trip. Would highly recommend Hector at Coastal Bend Kayak.

Great tour! The weather was perfect and the scenery was beautiful. Hector was very personable and it was educational too. My kids enjoyed their time and were totally worn out #momwin it was something different and a great family activity.

Hector is the best! He knows everything there is to know about the area, he is fun and funny, and he's just a straight up good guy. We went on a whim, and he was really easy to work with in organizing dates and times. We showed up, we followed him to the destination, and then we began...Hector showed us the ropes for kayaking, answered in depth questions on topics ranging from local plants and wildlife to business and from kayaking to local history. He's knowledgable and has an amazing spark and charisma. Highly recommend and can't wait to do the Ransom Island tour when we come back!

Highly recommend even for beginners. Hector is very helpful, friendly and chill. My friend and I had never kayaked but wanted to on our trip to Port A. Saturday night I called around 7 to get some info and before I knew it, we were set up for Sunday at 8-830 foemr a quick lesson and out to kayak. Hector texted that a.m. to confirm and he was ready for us when we got there. A quick lesson and the Kayaks were in the water and all I had to do was step in the mud, but even then he gave me his arm and helped me get settled. Even if you are wimpy and a beginner, he takes you to a place you can safely kayak and decide how far you want to go. When you are done, call him and he picks you up. Easy peasy! Would definitely do this again!

We had a fantastic time!!!Guide was friendly, knowledgeable and adjusted for our skill level. We would definitely do this again!!!

Great experience kayaking with Hector! We learned so much and had a great time. We saw tons of birds and even a saw a mother and baby dolphin. Highly recommended.

Fantastic kayak tour for our family of first time kayakers. We went on the Saturday morning group tour and it was perfect. Small enough group where he could provide guidance to everyone as needed. Gave us a quick Kayak 101 so we were comfortable with the plan before we left including equipment and safety. We did double kayaks with our kids (9 & 12yr olds). Worked out great. Was a great mix of bay kayaking which was a little harder at the start and then to the light house and mangrove paddling trails which is easy kayaking (Lighthouse Lake Tour). Would highly recommend doing this. Great first time experience. It was our kids favorite thing we did on vacation. Hector the owner and guide is a great guy!
