We had the best time ever. Saw a manatee eating leaves from the mangrove plants. Tour guide was friendly and took photos of our group in several locations. The tour was amazing with wild life all around us. The dolphins were playing while we watch them on the way to the cove. I would recommend this adventure and will certainly put this on my list of ā€œmust do againā€.

Our guide was awesome. It was very windy that day and one of our kayakers was having a hard time staying the course and he pushed or pulled her on his paddle board a good part of the way. He knew the manatees and their behavior well, where they would be and how they behaved. He was very kind, fun and knowledgeable. The only reason I didn't give this trip a 5 rating is because the manatees only showed us part of themselves at a time (a nose, back, tail) when they broke the surface and the water was very dark and murky and you couldn't see in the water. On a better weather day I am sure you could see the manatees much better.

My daughter and I spent an afternoon last week on kayaks looking for manatees while on her college spring break. We did not see any (they told us this might be the case, so we knew the risk in advance) but did manage to see dolphins, a variety of birds, and a snake or two. Morgan was an excellent guide, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. A great experience all-in-all. Would go again.
