Game Changers Article in Golden Isles Magazine

The Game Changers article in the July/August 2018 edition of Golden Isles Magazine features Kingfisher Paddleventures owner Norm Leonard, who shared some of his thoughts about kayaking with Golden Isles Magazine editor Bethany Leggett. We’re very excited to share this news with you and couldn’t be more proud of the ecotours we provide to visitors year-round.

You can find the entire magazine online here. It’s well worth your time because each edition is filled with information about activities, restaurants, shops, beaches, and other attractions throughout the Golden Isles. There’s much more to the magazine than the Game Changers column, and we encourage you to check it out!


Kingfisher Paddleventures offers paddleboarding and kayaking adventures in the Golden Isles as the area’s only ecotourism firm owned and operated by a PhD Conservation Biologist and Ecologist. Every outing is different, and our programming is dynamic as we respond to the wants and needs of our customers, the water conditions, the weather, and even the seasons. We take you on the tour YOU want, to the fullest extent possible. So some tours are “eco-light” while others are a full-on crash course in coastal ecology. Every group is different, and we understand that. We also get that you’re on vacation and might not want something that’s “too heavy” while others really enjoy the opportunity to “geek out” about the birds, plants, and ecosystems they see.

Our idea is that people only save what they love, so helping you fall in love with the area is our top priority. If this means that we drift in a tidal creek while your children swim, play, and laugh, then so be it! We promise you’ll have a blast. And we might even join your children (and you?) in the mud or for a quick swim. But we’re prepared to get serious, too, and we’re ready to lead you in a ranging conversation about coastal ecology the likes of which you won’t find anywhere else!

Thanksgiving is one our favorite times of year, and it’s really encouraging to see the Golden Isles bustling with so much activity as families and friends begin to gather for the holiday.

Gatherings and holiday celebrations often mean that people will be searching for activities to fill their days, so we want to remind you that Kingfisher Paddleventures is open. All of our normal tours on St. Simons and Jekyll are available, but we recommend the kayaking tours over the paddleboard tours this time of year. With that said, we’re happy to take you out on paddleboards if that’s what you really want. We enjoy both. And, as always, we welcome all ages and skill levels. Our tours a really great way for your Thanksgiving guests to reconnect and bond.

In addition to the tours, we also have rentals available. All rentals include free delivery and pick-up so you can arrange to meet us anywhere in the Golden Isles. We’ll bring the gear to you, you can go paddle, and then we’ll pick up the gear when you’re done. All you have to do is show up and have some Thanksgiving fun! We do all the work.

Whether you want a guided tour or want to explore on your own, we truly have something for every paddler. So we hope you’ll give us a call and add some adventure to your Thanksgiving break.

See you on the water!
