My 13 year old son and I were on a spring break cruise to the Bahamas. Our first port was Cape Canaveral. I found Sobe's tour online and was excited to go in search of manatees. The day of our tour was windy and choppy on the rive,r and my son and I didn't have success with the paddle boards. We kept drifting, rather than moving forward and were getting frustrated. I asked our guide, Nick, if we could go back to shore and switch out for kayaks. He accommodated us, with patience. Thanks Nick! Once in the kayaks, we had an easy time paddling along. Before we headed toward the coves in search of manatees, Nick noticed a large dolphin pod moving toward us on the other side of the river. He took us to them and we had an amazing encounter when a couple of the dolphins swam fairly close to us. I was in awe! We then headed to the coves and though we were only able to catch a brief glimpse of a manatee, I happened to be in an area of the cove away from the others when a manatee came up to the surface for air right off the side of my kayak. I didn't see his body, the water wasn't clear enough, but I spotted that snout! I was thrilled. I highly recommend this tour. The owners of the shop are kind and easy going. Our tour guide was patient and very knowledgeable about the area marine life. Seeing the dolphins (and that snout!) was one of the highlights of our spring break trip.

Weā€™ve (my daughter and I) visit SobeSurf & SUP every year on vacation and itā€™s always an amazing time! This year our tour guide was Andrew and he was fabulous! We chased dolphins in the bay and we got up close and actually were able to pet the manatees and spent lots of time with them playing in the water! Fabulous time again! Thank you šŸ˜Š

We had to reschedule our first reservation due to weather. This was no problem for Girard as he encouraged us to come back when the conditions were better so that we would have a more enjoyable time. Our enjoyment was his top priority. We are very appreciative and would absolutely come back again.
