Everything Kayak is the destination for ALL your kayak adventure needs.

Planning the perfect outdoors adventure is never complete without having all the right gear. So whether you’re an avid kayaker, a weekend warrior on a fishing trip, or simply hankering to bring out your wild side and go on an outdoors escapade, you can find everything at Everything Kayak!

Yes, kayaking is cool, fun, exciting, and healthy. If you love the water and the outdoors, kayaking is perfect for you.

But, as you will soon find out, there’s more to finding the perfect kayak than just the canoe.

For example, before you shop for a kayak, you must decide just what kind of paddler you are and which type of kayak best suits your outdoor activity and destination. The only way to find out is to test out as many kayaks as you can.

Unfortunately, finding access to all types of kayaks and renting or borrowing them is tedious, if not nearly possible.

Once you’ve found your kayak and paddle, there’s the matter of gear: safety, footwear, and clothing, to name the basics.

Everything Kayak is your full-service paddle sport retail company.

We provide a wide selection of complete kayaking gear and outdoor and fishing equipment that is unparalleled in most shops around the country:

Kayaks

SUP Paddle Boards

Kayak and SUP Packages

PFD Life Jackets

Paddles

Transport

Accessories

Apparel

We carry over thirty top-of-the-line kayak brands, and hundreds of other outfitter products.

In addition to our complete and widely diverse line of paddle sport products, we also provide a place for everyone to make an informed decision about their kayak and other paddle sport purchases.

Through our 1000-sq. ft. pool, our showroom provides you a way to literally and figuratively “test the waters” before buying your kayak or paddle board. You can test out our kayaks to make sure you have chosen the perfect kayak, are happy with your purchase, and wildly excited for your kayak adventure!

Over the past three years and five months since we started operations, we have closed over 4,000 transactions, amounting to more than $1,600,000 in sales. Half of this was earned in 2014 alone.

Currently, we are working on a license or franchise in St. Augustine, FL to expand our reach.

We have also enjoyed numerous features and press mentions from our friends at the Mississippi Small Business Development Center, US Small Business Administration, Jackson Kayak, and the Gulf Live Blog.

And we’re not stopping there. There’s still so much more in store from Everything Kayak as we open new stores and expand our business.

Mike dropped out of high school at 16 and moved to Florida. At 21, he joined the Navy where he became a Religious Programs Specialist. He provided physical security for chaplains in combat zones. During this period, he did two tours to Afghanistan and one to Iraq. However, he was forced out of the military as part of military laying off.

From here, he used his severance package to start a business out of his own passion for the outdoors. And Everything Kayak was born.
