Summary:
Our 8 and 10 year old grandchildren came for a visit and we wanted to do something special for them. This was the highlight of their trip. Logan was so patient and showed them how to balance on the skateboards and lean a certain way to turn in the direction they needed to go. He made it so much for them, adding in a race at the end. It was like a real live Mario Cart!!! Next time they come for a visit, we are planning an even longer skateboard adventure. I would highly recommend this.

Our second time to skateboard on the beach with Hugh and Amelia Island Board Rental and it was awesome!! Will definitely be on repeat every time we visit this beautiful place. Hugh is awesome at encouraging and teaching our 12 year old. This is a great way to enjoy the view and do something fun while Hugh brings the good vibes with music and boards! See you next time!
