    We went on a campfire crabs and constellations tour. The kids were amazed. They got to learn how to catch ghost crabs safely. We got sand fleas/ saw females with eggs and return them safely to the ocean. We cooked marshmallows, and ate s’mores over an open fire and looked at the stars. They learned about the constellations. It was a beautiful night an amazing experience, and we are going again this month. This is for kids and families of any age. We had teenagers and middle school elementary and even the little kids there was something for everyone to learn and enjoy! This is the best kept secret on the beach!

    After a whopping 10 min wait, we parked the car on the ferry and we're under way.
    I am amazed at the friendly people on board and the efficency in which they operate.
    Definitely the way to go.

    It’s been many years since I’ve been to Hatteras and this General Store stood out as a shop I remembered visiting. All these years later I returned and it’s still a great gift shop. Love their chocolates too!

    Captain Jeremy was fantastic. He was a great guy that my husband, son, and myself got along with really well. We enjoyed our trip since he geared it to what we wanted to do, like looking for sand dollars, snorkeling, and shelling. My family would definitely recommend to others to take the time and book an adventure with them. Thanks again Jeremy for a good day out.

    My wife and I spent a wonderful hour at Family Jewels in 2013. She shop, while I chatted with Wendy about her store, her art, and her family. My wife and I have stopped in each year since.

    Thankful we were able to be booked for a 3 hour trip in under a week notice. Kelly was a great boatmen & knowledgeable on the area. We felt safe going out with are young kids.
    We chose clamming and shell hunting. We all enjoyed the clamming. Found 60 clams. Kids also found hermit crabs to their delight.
    While shelling, Kelly put out some real treasures for out boys to find.
    This was the highlight of the trip to OBX. Our second time using Godspeed Charters. Highly recommend.

    I cannot express enough how grateful I am for Ty and his coaching style - in two days of his instruction I progressed farther than I have in 2 years with two other schools and 6 other coaches. His setup is top notch (and brilliant) and he is focused on truly teaching not selling you gear. A comfortable boat ride out to a giant playground meant I didn’t get exhausted walking against a current before we even began and I didn’t have to fight tourists or other kiters for a spot. Ty took his time to ensure I fully understood all concepts, including some the other schools never even mentioned - and it all became so much clearer! The tower (a brilliant idea/design) showed him immediately what my major issue was and quickly helped my body understand what needed to happen to be successful. The two way communication while kiting was also a game changer - getting immediate feedback and being able to ask questions real-time saved so much time/energy! It is such a welcome change to work WITH the wind/kite/board rather than it being an all out brutal cage match every single time. Ty is a natural problem solver and when I encountered a gear issue for which there was no current solution available he went above and beyond to identify a unique solution. He truly cares about his students and their safety! He is quick to give praise and point out things you are doing right - even when you don’t realize you did them. If you are struggling and are on the fence about starting with someone new since you’ve already invested so much money in the sport - stop hesitating and call Ty right now. It is worth every penny! If I had started my kiteboarding journey here it would have saved me thousands. I can’t wait to get back out to Ty-land and continue to develop my skills with an incredible mentor and all around fantastic human!

    An amazing day on the water with Kate, Brian and the rest of the crew on the Stormy Petrel II! We saw lots of great birds in addition to a beautiful sunrise, a bonus rainbow, lots of flying fish, dolphins and a blue marlin. Kate was wonderful at explaining the pelagic birds we found- hundreds of Scapoli shearwaters, a few Cory’s and Manx shearwaters, lots of Great and Audubon Shearwaters, Black capped petrels, lots of Sooty terns, some Wilson’s storm-petrels, Bridled terns, and our birds du jour, all three jaegers- Pomarine, Parasitic and Long-tailed. Two South Polar Skuas at the end of the day were the icing on the cake. The salty captain Brian did a great job finding the birds and schooling us land lubbers on staying safe on the boat. The crew had some lines out while we were birding so we got to help reel in a 30# wahoo. We met some nice folks on the tour. Highly recommended.

    Great trip! - Caught the boat limit! Captain Jay and Mate Garrett were incredibly professional and operated like a Swiss watch! Will definitely be back on this boat with this crew!

    The Marina was really nice as well with taking care of the fish and vacuum seal and freezing until we left the island at the end of the week!

    If you like to fish and you want to go our for the day or a half a day, give this guy / company a try. He is very smart and knows how to catch fish. The weather was good and we had a blast. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to do something outside.
