My wife and I went on the 2 hour kayak tour through the mangroves and it was an excellent experience. We booked our tour through Kenny at the Welcome Center, the cost was same whether we booked there or directly through Paddleboard Florida.
We took the 10:30am tour. We shared a double kayak, which was nice because it made it easy to talk and enjoy the experience together. It was little tight maneuvering through the mangroves but not difficult. On the tour we saw, blue herons, pelicans, 2 manatees, a horseshoe crab, several types of fish, a raccoon, and small crabs that live in the mangroves.
Our tour guide, Mike, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and vegetation and he openly shared his knowledge. He really enhanced the tour experience.
I highly recommend the tour
