This was an absolutely amazing experience for my boyfriend and I! It was a lot of fun seeing the landscapes and the manatees so up close! Our guides Jenny, Vivi, and Matt were so kind and knowledgeable, giving us information and facts about the wildlife around us. They even took loads of pictures for us too to share with friends and family. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting an awesome experience seeing local wildlife up close. We got lucky and even saw 2 gators!! Can’t wait to come back for another tour in the future! Thank you!!

Aloha! Thanks for taking the time to leave us(and three of our amazing guides) a fantastic review! The refuge is so incredible this time of year and that tour has certainly been very active in the mammal department. We appreciate the awesome recommendation and look forward to having you back in the future!

A truly magical experience. From the moment we entered the water until the moment we left the area was full of amazing wildlife. We saw countless Manatee all along the route we took, Dolphins, Eagles, Vultures and even a Racoon. Our guide Jenny was full of knowledge and made the experience one we will never forget. We were just a party of 2 but will be back as an 8 next year to do this again.

Aloha Paul! Thanks for taking the time to leave an epic review for us. We love love love hearing that you’ll be back with more and can’t wait! And the manatees, oh the manatees, they have been so amazing and fun this year, and plentiful! Jenny says thank you too. Have a blessed day and keep paddling!

Absolutely brilliant, our guide Jenny was fully prepared, relaxed and informative…. We were quickly steered to an amazing spot to relax on our boards surrounded by manatees and then paddled onwards to see more manatees and other wildlife…. Would totally recommend!!!
