He agreed with the others about the time of year, though. “Fall is by far my favorite time to paddle,” he said. “The sun is at a lower angle on the water, there are fewer bugs, no heat and far fewer motorboats on the water.” Paddling Shem Creek seems to be the most popular kayaking excursion in Mount Pleasant. It is a social experience, especially on weekends, when the creek is almost as busy as Coleman Boulevard


above. Other kayakers and boat- ers say hello, and the crowds at the waterfront bars always wave. Nature Adventures’ Shem Creek tour goes to Crab Bank, a heritage preserve and bird rookery. A variety of Eastern shorebirds share this spit of land near Charleston Harbor, nesting and raising their young. Crowley is also a fan of kayaking


the Shem Creek area. “Tere are dolphins all the time


on Shem Creek. Crab Bank is a productive bird-nesting area and a great place to see the city. And Fort Sumter is a great place to see the Charleston skyline,” he said. Other sights on a Shem Creek trip include shrimp boats, Castle Pinckney and area lighthouses. When you decide you love to kayak and are ready to invest in equipment, Time Out Sport & Ski can help you select the right kayak and supplies for your excursions. Te company specializes in recreational, touring and sit-on-top kayaks, most- ly made from roto-molded plastic. Fishing kayaks also are hot right now. “It’s no wonder Mount Pleasant is blessed with more than one outfit- ter. Tere is so much to do,” said Crowley. “Everybody that’s doing it is doing it because they love it.” Happy paddling!
