My 22 year-old son & I thoroughly enjoyed the kayak tour led by Karen. She was accommodating (allowed us to change from a double canoe to two single canoes at the last minute), informative, friendly, fun, and took great photos, which she shared with us after the event! We saw a manatee straightaway (the highlight for us!), dolphins, & several species of birds. Karen educated us about those & many other things, including the mangroves and local lore about pirates & treasure! The area is beautiful for kayaking. This is a must-do outing! 5/5

Our guide, Steve, was so knowledgeable and informative. We saw many manatees, tarpin, sea urchin, starfish, a dolphin and even an eagle. He knew where to look for all these creatures, and knew all about their lives and habits. It was a wonderful experience. Loved the manatees! Also learned lots about the trees and mangrove. Highly recommend.

Karen was a great guide! She was very knowledgeable and fun. We saw many birds and mullet fish jumping. We didn't see any manatees or dolphins but we learned a lot about the area and the whole family enjoyed this tour!
