We have gone on a number of kayak tours throughout Florida and this was the best one we have experienced so far! What made it such a memorable experience was our knowledgeable guide, Nina, who showed us jellyfish, sea urchins, horseshoe crabs and a sea sponge. It was nice to kayak through mangrove tunnels as well as spend some time on foot exploring Shell Key. Our experience was topped off by an encounter with a dolphin on our way back.

We had a beautiful day kayaking to Shell Key Island via the mangrove tunnels and with our very informative guide, Kyle. We kayaked along with birds diving for their meals, jellyfish and nature at her finest. The communication prior to our scheduled day was excellent and very thorough. I would highly recommend a guided tour with this company!
