Shark Tooth Island Rentals

Explore for pre-historic shark teeth, adventure awaits!

This is a “ripper” opportunity! Ever dreamed of being Moana or Indiana Jones?
Well put your wide brimmed hats on and get busy exploring Shark tooth island and the Cape Fear River together. 

Obviously I can’t guarantee shark teeth on the island but just like life it’s all about the journey. It’s a short paddle and you’ll arrive in time for optimal Shark Teeth finding opportunities but along the way you’ll take in the famous Cape Fear River.

You should be on the lookout for jumping fish, a range of birds and butterflies.

Don’t be a dag, book now so you don’t miss out.

We always seek to do something different on our vacation – this was fun; we found lots of teeth and the kayaking was not difficult at all! Thank you Mike 💕

My husband and I booked the Masonboro tour with Michael after really loving the Shark Tooth Island tour. We were first time kayakers and he made us feel comfortable and the shark island tour was a lot of fun. We came home with 34+ teeth. We then asked him if we could book a longer paddle tour with him and he suggested the Masonboro tour. This took us through a

Aussie Yaks is amazing. They rented kayaks to us for a trip to Shark Tooth Island in Wilmington, NC and they went out of their way to make the experience great. They gave us so much advice on where to see wildlife and what to look for. They were so friendly, especially to our 3 year old. They went out of their way to support anything we needed help with.

FRequently asked Questions

Mike or one of his team will provide a 5-7 minute safety and skill demonstration. This will guide you through some minimum water safety instructions and a brief paddle demonstration. If you don’t arrive 15-20 minutes prior to your booking you will waive this demonstration as we are on strict time schedules.

Shark Tooth Island has limited paddle times due to tides. The island is only exposed at low tide, this is the optimal time to explore and only time to look for Shark teeth.

We provide your kayak, paddle and life vest, we’ll also provide instruction and direction. We do however encourage people dress appropriately with light weight clothing avoiding dark colours and water shoes are a good option. It’s essential you bring water (Aussie Mike often has bottled water for sale) for hydration. It is Mandatory that someone in your party brings a phone in case of emergency (dry bags available for rent upon request).

We ask that you plan to arrive 10-15 minutes prior to your tour start time.


Due to extreme weather conditions rescheduling and cancellations unfortunately do occur. Firstly we’ll try to reschedule but let me reassure you that if you don’t paddle you’ll get a 100% refund. If we start and complete 50% this will be considered non refundable however you you will always have the option to reschedule before departure.

No age requirements at all. We recommend children under 12 years of age paddle in a tandem kayak with an adult.

We highly recommend bringing some appropriate footwear, water shoes, old runners something to protect yourself from oysters, rocks, anything sharp.
