First Landing Kayak TourFounded in 1996 as Chesapean Kayak Tours, we developed a reputation as one of the area's best kayak touring companies for dolphin watching off the coastline of Virginia Beach . Now, 15 solid years later, not only do we specialize in guided eco-tours, but we offer a variety of outdoor activities that guarantee adventure and fun for all! At Chesapean Outdoors, we believe in providing top of the line, customer service. We appreciate the value of our customers support and hope that your experience with us is meaningful. It is our honor to have you as our guest and we thank you, sincerely, for your business.

Chesapean is, hands down, the most flexible and accommodating adventure company in the Hampton Roads area. We are unique in several ways that make us different from our competitors. Because of our close operating proximity to the oceanfront and the state park we are not limited to a set tour schedule and we do not require you to book your tour weeks in advance, (although it is suggested because we do fill up quickly during peak season) and we only require a two person minimum whereas all other companies require six or more. Chesapean is also the most experienced company conducting dolphin tours, "our specialty," and is the only company that runs them 7 days a week during the season and have done so for the past 15 years. We are proud to be a small business providing BIG adventures and we look forward to gaining your business this season!

Let us help you customize your adventure to fit your needs. Popular group tours include: Company Outings/Team Building, Birthday Parties, Youth Groups and Kids Camps, Special Interest Groups, Family Reunions, Sport and Adventure Groups, and Bachelor/Bachelorette parties. You need it, we can do it! Don't see it? Don't worry- call and ask, chances are we can make it happen!
