This was a great tour - loved the clear kayaks and Josh was an excellent tour guide! He grew up there and knew so much about the river, springs and community. We saw a lot of manatees! Gave us tips on where to eat and what to do, which we took his advice and had a great dinner at Nortons that night and the next day went to Hunter Springs to snorkel and got to see a manatee up close in the water. If you are going to kayak at this location, the clear bottom kayaks are a must and don't forget to ask for Josh - he is amazing! We all had a great time.

We saw two Manatees but the water was murky. Unless you enjoy kayaking I wouldn’t really recommend this

Thank you for taking the time to write your review but we are not sure what you mean. The water that the tour goes into 80% of the tour is extremely clear. Since it is spring fed water, there is no way for it to be “murky.” As far as enjoying Kayaking, that is exactly what it is, A KAYAKING TOUR!?!?!? Maybe you didn’t read the description, or maybe you just didn’t pay attention on the tour but TWO things are certain. 1. The water is most definitely clear where we take our tours. 2. It is a Kayaking tour. Give us a call if you would like to discuss further but like I said before, we are confused by your review. :)

Izzy our tour guide was amazing. We rented 3 tandems for my family and we all had an amazing time. At first we saw some manatee noses and them moving around. We paddled to a couple of different spots trying to find them. Day was overcast and cloudy. No luck until we ended heading back to the dock at the end of our 2 hours. We ended up seeing 3 or 4 of these amazing creatures. We also saw dolphins jumping out of water to eat some fish. It was an amazing 2 hour paddle. We will definitely be back. Worth the drive from St. Augustine
