From the Kayak Amelia (visit link) website:

"Create your own adventure from our location in Talbot Islands State Park. We supply the kayak or canoe, PFD's, paddles and map. There is a wide array of sandy beaches where you can picnic and swim. Depending on the tide and weather, we will make suggestions on the most scenic, leisurely, and safest routes to take."

Additional information from the Kayak Amelia (visit link) website:

"There are miles of salt water trails to explore and many sandbars or sandy beaches to stop on and swim or picnic. All rentals leave from our location and need to stay here in the State Park. So that means paddling against the current half the time. We have singles and doubles, sit in and sit on top kayaks. Kids under 5 years old can usually fit in front of an adult in a single or in a third jumpseat in the tandems. The office is open from 9am-5pm everyday. No reservations are needed for rentals."
