Lea Island Excursions

10/01/2026

We are still running trips! Our season officially ends October 30th. This is the time of year I see mostly locals. So, if you have an idea that involves a boat, please feel free to reach out! I will entertain new ideas as we wind down our tourist season. Things like, sunrise charters, yoga on the beach, campfires, surf fishing on Lea Island, or a date night restaurant drop off, you name it! It doesn’t hurt to ask!

I am now offering lessons and guide services to those that are interested in learning more about the boating community in Pender and New Hanover Counties. These 2-hour sessions are designed to teach you how to SAFELY operate and navigate our waters. If you’ve just moved here and purchased a boat, allow me to introduce you to the area. If you’re new to boating and need help I am here for you, from the purchase of a new boat all the way to the sand bar. My goal is to create a SAFE environment for EVERYONE on our waterways.

It’s always a treat to see manatees here in southeastern North Carolina. We are somewhat on the northern boundary of their typical range. These manatees have most likely traveled over 500 miles to visit! Based off the size difference I would say this was a cow and her calf.

😑 Always do your research before stepping on a boat with a stranger!

Illegal boat charters are surging on Charleston’s waterways, and the U.S. Coast Guard says passengers need to know their rights before they ever set foot on a boat.

Epic sunset! The Thomas family has been so supportive of me from day ONE! They quite literally watch me pull away from the dock every single day! It was such a treat to have them on the boat last night. We had a blast! Happy Birthday Jodi Thomas Daniel ! 🎉🥳
