A couple of years ago I had booked a small group tour with Paddle Naples (Brent) and the entire group really enjoyed the experience. It was our first time kayaking, and Brent made it stress-free. Later, we booked a trip in Sanibel with a different place, as we were already on the island. While that experience was fine, it wasn't nearly as exciting as our Paddle Naples trip, nor did it have the scenery. Fast forward two years, and I'm visiting the area again with some additional family members. We wanted to kayak, and many of my group were inexperienced, so I knew who to book with. Again, a great experience. The kayaks are ready-to-go, he has dry boxes, explains the process, tells about the wildlife, and shows the safe places to go. Brent is a very personable guide, and one you'll be glad to have show you the basics. Do yourself a favor and book a trip with Paddle Naples.
