Tides of North Myrtle Beach

Here in North Myrtle Beach, we experience semidiurnal tides. This means that every
day, the tides cycle through two highs and two lows that occur at around the same
place.

Walked into Trailblaze to inquire on renting a golf cart for our vacation with some apprehension. We walked out with a golf cart and full confidence that it was great decision made. Let me tell you, it enhanced our vacation TREMENDOUSLY. This will be our go-to for all things Trailblaze Adventures has to offer next time we visit North Myrtle Beach!

We had so much fun when we were there the week of 7/30. Our two guides were amazing…Thank you so much for being so informative, patient with us and the kiddos and for giving us such a great time! Our guide Carleigh even found an ocean critter we’ve never seen! We will def be back. ????

I want to leave a second review because we did another tour! 2 salt marsh tours and the third was the island tour. Highly recommend all 3! Kayaking and SUP with TrailblazeAdventures was the highlight of My 11 year old twin grand daughters 2 week vacay. (And we did many things while they were here.)Carleigh and Colin were amazing guides.

Bikes were in great shape and came with locks. Seats were easy to adjust for my 13 year old daughter and me. Dropped off bikes within an hour of my reservation. Will definitely use their service again!

We loved our Kayak Marsh Adventure tour with Carleigh today! Our 11 1/2 year old twins enjoyed the tandem kayaks and loved the good paddling adventure! Our family had a wonderful time and highly recommend this adventure. A great family value and experience! We will return!

We had a great fun Kayaking around the salt marsh. We had 3 boys who wanted to experience Kayaking during spring break at Myrtle Beach. This was a unique experience for them. The staff was friendly and ensured we were well taken care of during this event.

Great! We wanted rental bikes on short notice for a beach cruise. Unlike others on Google, they were actually at their address, opened on time, got us well-maintained bikes and got us on the road in no time! We're excited to come back when we have more time, for an all-day kayak tour! Highest recommendation!

Would highly recommend this experience. Very affordable and went to a beautiful island during the tour. The staff was amazing, polite and patient (we went to the wrong place at first).If you're ever in North Mrytle Beach and want to do some outdoor sports this is the place to go!

We rented bikes for 4 days and it was great. They delivered and picked up the bikes making it super convenient. The bikes were smooth and easy to use—my 9yo and 11yo both loved them. We biked all over!!

Did the private island tour and loved it. Our guide Keats was very interesting and knowledgeable, we got to catch crabs (which the kids loved), see some wildlife, kayak, and play at the beach. This worked well for our family of 5 with 2 young kids. Overall, highly recommend!

If you want someone who understands tides, wind and the local water for kayaking ask Keats. He takes your safety and enjoyment seriously. When I called him for kayak rental his main concern was when and where I was putting in. Thank you Keats for your professional understanding of the local conditions. You will be my first contact for all of my family's beach needs.

Super nice and helpful!! The young man changed out our daughters tube on her bike and didn’t charge us. We will definitely rent from them next week when our large family joins us.

Super friendly and helpful. Not an easy task to satisfy three 15 year old girls...they had a blast on their bikes for the day. Can't wait for our next trip to rent a golf cart. Looking forward to many seasons together.

Our second year kayaking with Keats for a sunrise tour. This year I managed to get multiple teenagers to wake up early! We all had a great time, and it was beautiful even though there was a short rain shower. We saw a shark and an alligator garr. My kids were thrilled to tell about Keats catching the fish with his bare hands!10/10 would recommend.

We're glad we decided to take the kayak tour with Trailblaze adventure: that was an easy laid back tour, the weather was perfect, the breeze is a nice touch, too. Our family was the only one for the tour, so we had all attention from our guides.We definitely will come back.Highly recommend.

What a fantastic experience. We just walked in and it could not have been easier. Very friendly. We rented electric bikes and had an awesome time. Thank you so much. We will be back to rent e-bikes or maybe some kayaks.

The Salt Marsh Sunrise Kayak Tour is a MUST when visiting North Myrtle Beach! Family friendly and one of the most serene experiences you will have during your vacation (also a fantastic experience for locals)! Our guide, Keats, was awesome ALL AROUND and was very patient with our family! Laid back and enjoyable! If you want fantastic views and a true low country coastal experience, then this is for you! Highly recommend!

Can't recommend highly enough. Kind and professional. Treated us like we were his only customers. Made the entire process painless and super easy. The bike was top notch too. Riding a bike at the beach is my wife's favorite thing to do and you helped make her vacation wonderful.

The bikes arrived on time and were delivered by a very friendly and helpful young man. My family enjoyed using them for the week and had a lot of fun riding on the beach. I would use them again if I was in the area.

Francesca, Keats and Chris were awesome! We had a large group go out on a tour and they were awesome tour guides! It was my first time going kayaking, and they helped every step of the way. Keats helped me after having some technical difficulties, and didn’t think twice about it, he just jumped right in and helped me(which means a lot to me)! They are all very friendly and I really enjoyed going out with them! We will be going back for more! I highly recommend them!

The day my wife and I went was kinda cold and windy, but this didn’t ruin the adventure! We went on the sunset tour, and Keats and Teaghan were so informative and nice! We got to the island which was BEAUTIFUL, and got to explore. We found a few jellyfish and a sand dollar. The marsh part of the tour was also fun, Keats caught a crab with his bare hands! It was amazing and we got lucky to see certain things there because it was nighttime. It was sooo fun! Definitely recommend!

I can't say enough about this amazing company! We rented bikes and participated in the Marsh kayak tour. We booked with them this past September for an anniversary trip, and now I am looking to take the kids. I can't wait to book with them again!

We were a party of 6 with limited to no experience in kayaking. Our guide Keaths(hopefully I am spelling that right) was excellent. He showed us how and was very helpful throughout the trip. I had complete confidence that we were in goods hands for the entire tour. I would 100 percent recommend this company.
Thom Wisniewski
22:32 08 Apr 22
Absolutely AWESOME experience! We rented our golf cart for a second time here. We then decided to do a kayak tour and it was AMAZING! Keats was an absolute joy and so knowledgeable as our guide. We will definitely do the sunset tour next time!! Highly highly recommended people and business. We won't go anywhere else!!

Had a great time on beach bikes with my teenage granddaughters. Fun activity for all and GREAT time exercise! Van and his son were very helpful and friendly. They even gave us some recommendations as to where we could go for lunch in the beach and how to get around town. Can’t wait to go back and try their kayaking.

What an amazing experience! The weather was perfect and the tour guide was great. He was very professional, fun and knowledgeable. Kayaks were in great condition, the views were gorgeous and the trip to the island was beyond amazing. I will never forget this adventure and I hope to do it again in the future. Highly recommend using this company!!!

So I have never been in a kayak before and was beyond nervous. Keats was absolutely amazing! He was calm and helpful and walked me through how to use the paddles and steer. He stayed near and talked to you throughout the whole experience. We stopped at some wetlands before heading to Waites Island. He showed us some of the wildlife there as well. We had a beautiful paddle back as the sun was setting. He is awesome to talk to as you are experiencing the beautiful scenery. I cannot wait to go back!!

Keats was such a fun guide. His gentle nature, as well as his knowledge of 🦀nature, 🐠made our kayak and paddle board trip the best one so far!No question, we will use (AND RECOMMEND) Trailblaze Adventures North Myrtle Beach each year we visit from NY. Thanks for the ice cold water Keats. 💦We loved the pictures you took and texted us after the adventure. Great price as well. 😎

Our kayak tour with Keats (our tour guide) was everything we hoped for and more! We had never kayaked before and Keats made us feel super comfortable. My one daughter was quite nervous but Keats put her at ease and within a few minutes of being on the water she was laughing and having a great time. The sunrise tour offered a gorgeous, serene setting and really allowed us to take in the beauty of the surrounding area. Keats is very knowledgeable about the ecosystem and taught us quite a bit along the way. If you are even considering a kayak tour then Trailblaze Adventure is who you want with you along the way! Our next trip to North Myrtle Beach will definitely include another excursion! Thank you for giving us this wonderful memory on our family vacation. ????☀️

In the 20-some years we’ve been coming to MB, we never this kayaking experience existed! It was really great. Keats, our guide, was awesome. Super personable and shared lots of interesting knowledge about the marsh area. The cost for the 3.5 he trip was so reasonable and what I loved the most is there are no hidden fees. Our guide took photos on his phone as we were actively kayaking and sent them to everyone after the tour. No extra cost of $30-50 for a thumb drive of pictures! It was a really nice way to spend the morning.

We had a great time, our guide Keith was very attentive, especially with the kids, he was patient and very informative. We will definitely be passing on recommendation for the TrailBlazers adventure tours to friends and family and we hope to go again in the future.

I loved every bit of our kayak tour to Waites Island. The guides were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The equipment was in excellent condition. And the island is just gorgeous. Would have loved to stay on that island for days! I would do this again in a heartbeat and I highly recommend this activity.
Cassie Shaw

This was our first time kayaking and the experience was AMAZING! The guide was so helpful and made the experience great by taking us on a small tour of the island(note you have to stay on the beach side can't go back in woods) and he also showed us a spot where crabs were which was amazing to see( there were so many the ground just looked liked it was moving). I will be using this company anytime I can and definitely hooked on kayaking now! Thank You So Much for the experience and lesson!

The sunrise kayak trip is definitely worth the early morning wake up. Beautiful trip! Sunrise over the water is spectacular, and Trailblaze Adventure is both professional and fun. This was our second summer to do the sunrise tour and look forward to many more! Thanks Trailblaze Adventure for the awesome vacation memories.

We loved our paddleboard sunset salt marsh tour with Keats! He made us feel very comfortable with our boards, and took the tour at our pace. He was really informative of the area and told us all about different wildlife around the salt marsh while touring. Keats tour was so much fun! We will definitely be coming back next time we are in Myrtle! I would recommend taking a paddle board tour with Keats to anyone! It’s not as hard as you might think, and Keats is an awesome instructor!

My sister and I rented bikes for 2 hours today just to cruise around, and the two guys working were so friendly and helpful. Bikes were great! Into our rental, we were a little worried that we would be over the two hours we paid for (because we had left the kids and husbands at the beach and had stopped at the winery!), but when we checked the email for our time we realized they had put our 2 hour start time about a half hour after we actually left. We ended up being on time, but that was so nice to not have to rush. We would definitely rent from them again, also next time we’re here we’ll do a kayak tour and paddle board yoga!

Another great experience today with SUP Yoga at Trailblaze Adventures. Felice is an amazing teacher...and we had such great instruction and support the whole trip! We had a pretty inexperienced group, with some first time paddlers, but Felice, Keats, and Brenda made it an enjoyable, accessible, and safe ride (and yoga practice) for everyone. I wish it was possible to give more than 5 stars...we’ll definitely be back.

Our kayak tour with Trailblaze Adventure offered a scenic coastal escape at an amazing low cost. Our experience with this company has been phenomenal, and we will definitely be back for more adventures with them! Super nice, professional and accommodating. We also rented bikes with Trailblaze and Had another great experience. Our bikes were in great condition, and were available to us immediately.

I had the pleasure of taking the Private Island Tour. Keats was very knowledgeable, helpful and patient with me. I recommend Trailblaze Adventure for the kayak tours and equipment rentals. They go the extra mile to make sure that the customer has the best experience possible!

Me and me mom rented a golf cart for a week from these guys it was the best golf cart it was off season so they were closed and you could still rent a golf cart with a call or online thank you Keats for driving out to help us out Keats explained everything fantastically and we were on our way when we returned the golf cart it was painful the owners were super nice and friendly would definitely recommend them for anything.Fantastic service,Thanks Trailblaze Adventures

My son and I rented a golf cart for a week, we had a great time, the weather was a little chilly the last three days but that wasn’t their fault. It was off season but you could still rent the golf cart, the owner came to meet us, showed us everything we needed to know and off we went it was easy, fast, and a cheaper price than some of the other ones I looked up and three blocks from where we were on South Ocean Blvd. I will be renting another before we leave in a couple of months. Great service, thank you!Sandra

Several hours walk from my hotel on Myrtle Beach, having forgotten to take my credit card, I was parched and in need of a beverage. The owner of this shop welcomed me in and graciously gave me a cold drink. We chatted for a few minutes about his interesting life until the next customer arrived. Check out the excellent beach equipment at "Trailblaze Adventure" and meet the delightful owner!

This was our first bike we had quite an adventure we only booked the bikes for two hours and got lost and ended up taking us three hours and maybe 18 miles to get the bikes back, we called the owner to get directions back, because of detours, he was very understanding and even gave us bottled water to cool off!The bikes were nice they had big tires on them for riding on the beach and we could not have asked for more hospitality from the company!FYI, Do not count on your GPS maps to help you find your way!Thank you!

Great experience renting a golf cart for 24hrs. We’ve been coming to Myrtle Beach forever, and specifically staying in the Windy Hill section of North Myrtle Beach. This was a great way to see the area in a whole new way. We drove around the surrounding neighborhood and really got to see the houses and the residential side of the area. We were able to go over to Barefoot Landing and park without a problem for breakfast and lunch, and also took the golf cart to Hamburger Joe’s one night for dinner. Our 13 & 9 year old kids loved riding on the back seat. Van, the owner, was so nice and friendly, and made the rental process so quick and easy, and returning the golf car was painless. I would highly recommend renting a golf cart from Trailblaze Adventure if you are in the North Myrtle Beach area. We will definitely do it again next year.

We rented 4 kayaks and they met us at the Cherry Grove boat ramp. They were very friendly and professional. Highly recommend this family run business. Kayaks, lifejackets, and oars were top notch and in great shape.

Trailblaze Adventures is fantastic! Van and Keats were very friendly and accommodating. The kids had a blast going for a ride in the golf cart. Keats was helpful in getting me comfortable on the paddle board. I look forward to renting from Trailblaze Adventures again during my next stay!

What a great time we had! I rented the golf cart from Trailblaze Adventure and to be honest, I started to rethink the decision once I saw how huge the area was. I am so pleased that we maintained the booking! My son and I had a blast tooling and the town and seeing areas that we might not have if not for the golf cart. Trailblaze Adventures made this a super easy transaction for us by dropping off and picking up the cart at our hotel. The place we were staying didn't allow for a place to plug in an electric cart so no problem, here's a gas cart. There are a number of roads you cannot drive on in a golf cart, but there are always easy alternatives. I took the cart to the food store, to the fishing pier, to the beach, to an open house, to the stores in town. As I said, my son and I spent a bunch of time together just hanging out and relaxing. It was worth every penny just for the laughs with my son. We would definitely rent again from Trailblaze Adventure. I think we will also try one of their kayak adventures next time too! Thanks guys!

Our family went on the private island kayak tour. It was so much fun! Daniel, Chandler and Keats were our guides. They were great! It was nice to do something at Myrtle Beach that wasn’t crowded and allowed us to go at our own pace. I would definitely recommend doing this! We plan to do one of their other excursions when we come next year! Patty GillespieMills River, NC

This is a father and son owned business. I can truly appreciate that! The father, Van is very people friendly! He treats his customers with consideration and respect. My wife and I were on a week vacation and their gulf cart rental was directly across from where we were staying. Van made my wife and I feel very comfortable giving him our business. Thank you for you service and helping my wife and I to have a wonderful time in Myrtle Beach!

Such a pleasant experience with the guys at Trailblaze Adventure. They were so friendly and went out of there way to work with us. We rented a 6 passenger golf cart for the week they delivered and picked it up. We were so pleased with the service that we took them up on there offer to take a Kayak tour and it ended up being the highlight of my family's trip.

We have rented golf carts from other companies over the years but this year we decided to try Trailblaze. It was by far the best experience we have ever had in the Myrtle Beach/North Myrtle Beach area. Keats was awesome and made sure we were well taken care of. In my opinion, there is not a better company on the Grand Strand than Trailblaze Adventure. We will rent again!!Thanks Keats and Trailblaze!!

Amazing business and people, so knowledgeable and friendly. Can't recommend these guys enough, they were very informative and honest about what bikes they had (cruisers) and their limitations, and they said they'll have more bike variety next season, which is great. Will definitely return next time I'm in Myrtle Beach!

12:50 03 Jul 19
Great experience!! Our guide, Keats was awesome and took a ton of pictures all day of us and then sent them right over! It was an awesome experience! He allowed us to hang out on the beach for much longer than we planned which was awesome since we had kids with us! We had 3 kids with us in our group, age 4,6, and 7. The older two were in tandem kayaks with their mom, and then he took extra caution with our 4 year old, putting him and my mom (who has a bad shoulder) in the front of his tandem kayak, so all Nana had to do was love on the littlest (no rowing... Keats did all the work). It was a very easy row, and we had a blast swimming on the beach! Highly recommend!!!!

I never do these reviews but I just had to for this one! The salt marsh tour was so much fun! I hadn't been kayaking in a very long time but it was easy. I've been a local for about 10yrs & I enjoyed every minute of it! The sheer beauty that surrounded us gave for some memorable photos too! I'm looking forward to doing more cause with these guys & the best prices in town, I have the opportunity to enjoy the place where I live. Highly recommend for any age or fitness level. You'll go away happy!
