Siesta Key Kayak Tour

Overview
Just a few minutes away from all the hustle and bustle of Sarasota is our favorite local beach, Turtle Beach. It is only a few short miles from the main Siesta Key beach to Turtle Beach and the Sarasota County trolley will drop you right there. Not only is this area such a beautiful and quiet place, it is also a great place to paddle!

We start on the intercostal and paddle down a short canal to the Bay. We paddle around the mangrove islands through a mangrove tunnel or two and alongside a bird rookery.

We paddle around the mangrove islands of Jim Neville Marine Preserve and then to a "secret" beach. This beach is only accessible by boat so we may have it to ourselves. Such a beautiful place for a quick swim or just stopping for a few moments to relax. You may want to stay here all day.

This location is home to all kinds of wildlife including manatees, dolphins, beautiful sea and shorebirds and lots of fish.

Friendly, helpful. It was a nice day but a bit windy. They prioritized safety. I wish there were more mangroves but it’s not the spot.

The kyyak tour was an enjoyable experience with our knowledgeable guide, Cody. I recommend Surf Fit.

Kayaking through the mangroves and shark enclosure was fun. Our tour guide Sawyer was super nice and had interesting facts about the areas.
