It's an extraordinary experience, so come join us and create memories that will last a lifetime.

We had a fantastic experience with our guide Jonah!! Even though we were late, they offered to extend our time. Even though we did not see a manatee, we had such a wonderful experience and we would highly recommend this trip!!

Tommy, Evan, and Jonah were amazing! Very knowledgeable and really seem to love what they do! It was our family’s first time on kayaks and the whole crew explained everything well and we immediately got the hang of it. The location is gorgeous with a ton of wildlife and natural beauty to see. We would definitely do this tour again!

Tommy, Evan, and Jonah were amazing tour guides! We had such a great time! It was our family’s first time on kayaks and the guys did a great job of explaining how to maneuver them before we started. We saw so much local wildlife and so many beautiful areas! The tour was such a great part of our trip! We would totally do it again!

Jonah was great! Very knowledgeable! We really enjoyed our experience. He knew exactly where to take us to see the manatees and he wasn’t wrong. We saw a bunch. Not only did he talk about the manatees but the other wildlife we were seeing on our tour. Will definitely be back.

We were able to see manatees in their environment and learn about them! We also were able to learn about conservation efforts to protect them

We had a wonderful time on this trip. Tommy, our guide, was very knowledgeable and took a lot of care not to disturb the manatee’s habitat. We saw manatees break the surface from a distance and there were obviously many there. The water visibility was low though so we couldn’t see them clearly around us. We did, however, see dolphins, pelicans, an osprey and had a lot of fun paddling through the rather choppy water. Safety was given high priority and the trip was good value for money. Brilliant afternoon.

What an amazing adventure we had exploring in tandem kayaks. Tommy was very knowledgeable and explained everything for a beginner kayaker to be successful during their trip. He knew a lot about the local wildlife, birds and especially manatees. We were able to see several during our excursion while being very respectful of their habitat. not only did we have fun, but we learned a lot. Highly recommend!!!!!

Tommy was a great guide! He made sure that everyone on the tour got an up close encounter with the manatees and stayed out longer than the original time. He gave some basic instruction on kayaking and guidelines for interacting with the manatees. Would definitely do this again or one of his other tours!

Great experience! Tommy was very informative, helpful, and patient. We liked that he worked hard to make sure we were all respectful of the animals. If you want to see the manatees up close book kayaks instead of other boat tours which will frighten the manatees.
