EAGLES ISLAND

This guided kayak tour is planned around the tides so that we have a tidal current pushing us along the entire way. While paddling through Eagles Island, we will learn about the Gullah Geechee and their key role within the island before the Civil War.  You will be led through old rice canal systems, where ospreys are busy in their nests atop the ghost trees. This tour is all paddling without time away from your kayak and is ideal for intermediate and experienced kayakers.

 

 This 2.5 hour multi-ecosystem tour of the Brunswick River, Sturgeon Creek, Mill Creek and Eagles Island requires shuttling so that there is no backtracking. 

STURGEON CREEK

Both the Atlantic Sturgeon and the Short-nosed Sturgeon are endangered species found in this region.  Named after this ancient anadromous fish, Sturgeon Creek will capture your heart during one leg of this tour.

THE RARE SKIPPER

(Problema bulenta) In the summer of 2021, WOA owner sited what she thought may be the endangered Rare Skipper while guiding this tour.  Later, after many hours of searching, she captured the butterfly on her cell phone.  Professional lepidopterists needed a better photograph to confirm the finding.  Nature photographer, Bryan Putnam accompanied Kay Lynn and took this photograph, which is one of his images that gained official confirmation of species. The Rare Skipper has a state conservation status of S1 (Critically imperiled in North Carolina because of extreme rarity) and is endangered globally (6 to 20 occurrences) throughout its range.
