Mangrove Kayak + Snorkel & Sunset Sail hosted by Honest Eco

Overview

I founded and own HONEST ECO. With Kentucky bluegrass roots and a B.S. in Biology, I found a world with a blue sea too alluring to ignore. I arrived to Key West in 2005. Now I have 10+ years of experience studying Biology and being on the water in Key West. I now own a small business with my wife and 2 young kids. We are trying to make a big impact by educating and leading by example. I'm very passionate about being respectful to the wildlife and the environment

We have gone out in a sail with Honest Eco for a number of years, and each year it is more perfect than the last. Today was a glorious day! Perfect weather for snorkeling and kayaking, and a sunset to remember. Rachel, our captain, and Brian, the crew/wildlife expert, made our day memorable. We cannot recommend this company enough — small groups (you are NEVER crowded on an Honest Eco boat), personal attention, knowledgeable staff who can explain in detail anything you would like to know about birds/dolphins/sponges/coral/ mangroves. And tonight when the planets were aligned in the sky, Rachel stopped the boat and we all sat back and looked at the sky. What a perfect, perfect day! Don’t waste your time or money with other providers — Honest Eco is in a class by itself.

what an incredible review thank you so much! It means so much that you keep coming back year after year, and hearing that each trip somehow tops the last? That’s the best compliment we could ask for. Rachel and Bryan are such a fantastic team, and I love that their knowledge and personal attention stood out to you. We believe in small groups for a reason you should never feel like just another passenger on a crowded boat. Really appreciate your kind words and continued support. Can’t wait to have you back again on the water with us!

The trip was great - very well run. Wade was our captain, and he was fun and professional. Hatton led the kayaking and told us about the ecology of the area. The kayaking through the mangroves was super cool. We saw man of war and various nursery sea life. The snorkeling was refreshing albeit a little murky because we didn’t have great weather. Wade did a great job coaching me through a little bit of panic on my part about snorkeling in general. Very helpful and ensured I didn’t miss out on this great opportunity. The dip that hatton made was fantastic! Definitely bring your own snacks to supplement or eat before you go. Hatton was a great host throughout the trip. Wade and Hatton went above and beyond to track down dolphins for a sighting right around sunset. Perfect end to the day!

Hi Heather! Wow, what an incredible day you had! Kayaking through the mangroves, snorkeling, and spotting dolphins at sunset, it doesn’t get much better than that. Hadden’s knowledge of the area and Wade’s supportive coaching during snorkeling are exactly what make these trips so special. I’m so glad Wade was there to guide you through the moment and ensure you didn’t miss out. And yes, Hadden’s dip is always a highlight! Great advice about bringing snacks, while we provide plenty of snacks, guests are always welcome to bring extra, and we have coolers on board to keep everything chilled. Thank you for joining us and for sharing such kind words. We’d love to see you back on board for another epic day!
