Flipper Float: Shem Creek Rental Book Now

Benefiting the South Carolina Aquarium

Sunday, August 15 | 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.

Flip that frown upside-down…Flipper Float is back on Sunday, August 15 at all Coastal Expeditions locations! 100% of kayak and paddleboard rental proceeds benefit conservation initiatives at the South Carolina Aquarium, so you can feel turtle-ly awesome when you participate.

In addition to rental proceeds, you can help the Sea Turtle Care Center™ directly by bringing in important items that are needed, like HE laundry detergent, dish soap, bleach, trash bags (13 gallon) and rubbing alcohol. You can also shop the Aquarium’s Amazon wish list directly by clicking here.

All seven species of sea turtle are listed as threatened or endangered – a reflection of the growing issues surrounding coastal development and climate change. To help ensure that sea turtles have a future in our oceans, the Sea Turtle Care Center, in partnership with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR), rehabilitates sick and injured sea turtles. To date, the Sea Turtle Care Center has rehabilitated and released over 300 sea turtles back into their natural habitats.
