This was a good kayak excursion. Zoe, our tour guide was friendly, engaging, and helped us to navigate Lofton Creek safely. We had hoped that we might get more in-depth information about the ecology of the area. The write up states that tour information is curated by a University of Florida Advanced Master Naturalist Guide. The Advanced Master Naturalist certification is given to those who complete 3 community education courses given by the University of Florida. I would have thought more scientific information could have been given during our tour. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with nice pictures provided, just needed a little more detailed ecological information!

Great adventure with some pleasant/knowledgeable guides and fun folks. It was a full moon Banjo player and some of the home owners decorated their docks and were passing out treats and libations. Paddle Jax is a great source for your paddling adventures.
