Cancellation Policy

Cancellations by the renter must be made at least 10 days in advance to receive a refund.

Cancellations by Salty Shark Boat Tours, before the tour begins, will be fully refunded. Cancellations are at the discretion of the guide. If for any reason, our guides decide that the trip would be unsafe or not possible as planned, they may cancel at any time. Although we rarely cancel trips, we reserve the right to cancel a trip for any reason. This includes weather, logistical problems, or circumstances, which make the operation of the trip inadvisable. Our trips run rain or shine! This is a Coastal Area and we see many rainy days. Weather cancellations are rare and made only when conditions are considered unsafe for paddling. We can do our best to plan and prepare, but life is not always predictable in North Carolina. Please remember that these are outdoor activities and Mother Nature is always in charge!

Trips may be delayed or canceled due to rough seas, strong winds or severe weather. If your trip has a delayed start time or is cut short due to weather, but the trip still runs on the dates planned, there will be no refund or pro-rated cost. We do not cancel our trips solely because of weather, so please be prepared for that. We will kayak in all weather, rainy, hot, cold, other, as long as the conditions are safe.
