Awesome experience. Our guide Jay was really nice and attentive to the group. My boys enjoyed the kayaking and swimming in the springs.

I booked this trip over the phone with Taylor (owner) who answered all of my questions which helped me decide to book this excursion. I was asked for my lunch and water vessel preference, my sister is a vegetarian, they were very accommodating! We both chose single kayaks and they were in good shape and easy to use. We were shuttled 45 minutes from a Publix in PCB to Cypress Springs. Cody, our guide, was very entertaining, warm and genuine. He kept us laughing from start to finish. We paddled about 15-20 minutes to the Spring, as you can see from my pictures, the water is blue and crystal clear! Everything was provided: beach chair, towel, lunch, bottled water, Gatorade, sunscreen, under water scooters and snorkel gear. You only need your swimsuit and shades! I really loved this experience and while the water was brrrrr cold, I acclimated quickly and was able to see the under water spring with snorkel gear. It was the coolest thing!! We chose the 8am excursion which gave us an extra hour at the Spring and I'm so glad we did! I would 100% recommend this to anyone looking for something different to do on a beach vacation. Cody aka "Taylor Paper" made the trip. He's the best guide so request him if you can! You'll be glad you did. He also does dolphin tours, we'll do that next time! Thanks again for the great memories!!

The canoe /kayak trip to the spring was calm and beautiful. The water at the spring was so blue, crystal clear, cold, and beautiful. We had a blast!! Jay, our tour guide was great and very informative! They provided everything we needed, the sub sandwich was delicious. The canoe / kayak trip back it rained which made it that more fun! I would definitely recommend this to anyone! We would do it again! Thank you Coldwater Excursions for a memorable trip!!
