We were very impressed with everyone we spoke to and the guide on 7/25/26. Very highly recommend and would go again, thank you!Posted on Google Kenneth ScottJuly 21, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife and I went on the Arches Kayak tour this morning. Dave and Clio (it may be Cleo) wete our guides. They were incredible as was the tour itself. Beautiful scenery, exhilarating aches to navigate, very personable guides! 5 Stars for every aspect of the trip. I would highly recommend South Coast Tours for anyone looking for a great adventure in the Brookings area. Be aware that the hike down to and up from the beach to the trailhead is a workout in itself and might not be fir everyone, but at a lazy 62 I made it just fine.. slow and steady, LOL. Thank you again Dave and Clio!!!Posted on Google Syrona ScottJuly 21, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dave and Clio were awesome! We had a ton of fun.

Our captain, Brian, was knowledgeable and funny. I always felt safe and it was great to learn more about the coastline's history. We didn't see a whale, but we saw a lot of sea lions and tons of different birds. I highly recommend this tour!Posted on Google Laura CornacchioneJuly 15, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very knowledgeable and friendly guides. A great tour. Absolutely recommend.Posted on Google Marilyn McAllisterJuly 15, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. South Coast Tours is a class act. Good equipment and a delightful guide. The coast line from the Brookings harbor was beautiful - lots of birds and some harbor seals. This is a “don’t miss” experience.Posted on Google Rebecca LancioniJuly 13, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brian was such a great tour guide, and my whole family really enjoyed the sea tour. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend this if you’re visiting the area.Posted on Google Laura Harp Wadas [Rancho HS]July 6, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So many good things to say. We originally booked a tour out of Secret Beach to Arches caves. My wife and I decided to test out the hike the day before. We parked at Spruce Island and made our way down, then hit a pretty exposed section right above Secret Beach and decided that this trip wasn't for us. We come from elevation and I am very comfortable with 30+ pack, but I cannot do an exposed cliff. On a holiday, we called to cancel our next-day trip. Within a few hours, Dave with SCT called and talked through our issues. He said hey, instead of canceling, are you interested in going out of Port Orford for a more chill trip? Our bit of refund was received immediately and the next morning we paddled with Mike out of Port Orford. Our group was experienced paddlers but this was still super fun, informative, and just overall cool. Mike was great with our group and we even got some fresh uni! Can't recommend enough because I called with a problem and they found a better solution than I knew. That's awesome.Posted on Google DaveJuly 5, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing trip on an amazing river so much wildlife! Perfect!Posted on Google Chad GroggelJune 18, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great kayaking trip right on the ocean. Our guide Mike was great and very knowledgeable. The scenery and wildlife were beautiful. I'd recommend this tour to anyone!
