Marriage Exercise with Chris - Chris our tour guide was absolutely amazing! He was personable and easy to talk to. He took the time to explain kayaking basics to those who were first timers. We ended up doing this adventure with family as a married couples double date. Each couple had a two person kayak allowing the couples to work together. It was a lot of fun to be reminded of the partnership and to rely back onto it in order to be successful. We found the kayaking partnership to be a wonderful metaphor of marriage. Overall it was a wonderful marriage exercise. Initially we did get sticker shock from the price but after completing the excursion we felt the actual cost was cheap and was worth every penny. I would gladly do the tour again with Chris or any other tour he was doing. In these type of excursions the tour guide makes all the difference and this particular tour was no different. Chris elevated the tour to a new level and we greatly appreciate him for doing that!

Wow! What fun! - This was an amazing adventure! When we booked the tour, we knew it was going to be great, and we were blown away.
First, our tour guides were superb. Susie and Jeff took us through the open waters and into the mangrove tunnels at sunset and under the stars, explaining what was happening around us and helping us find the many exciting discoveries. It would be hard to overstate just how great they were.
The exploration of the Thousand Island estuary was thrilling and interesting. It is a very diverse environment, and we saw many different creatures in their own environment and during their prime time.
The sunset was beautiful, and the stars were spectacular!
I recommend this tour, and if possible request Susie and Jeff. They made the trip for us!

Super Friendly - Everyone we interacted with was super friendly. We were running late for one of our bookings, and some one called to check on us and after we arrived, they let us kayak for a little bit longer to make up the time, which we were so grateful for. We also booked a second trip with them to do a night time bioluminescence tour, Jeff and Orca were amazing and super fun and it was a beautiful night out on the water. I would definitely recommend them!

BEST family memory of our stay at Cocoa Beach - Literally the best trip for our family! Our guides, Susie and Jeff, gave us a private tour of the beautiful waters and mangrove trails. Taking time to teach us about the wildlife and bioluminescence we encountered was most appreciative as we are from IN and much of the environment is foreign to us. The fact that the guides took care of making sure all of the memories were captured with pictures that were sent to us after was just the cherry on top! Our three teens loved it as well! Susie and Jeff were the BEST!

Glowing Fun - It was a fantastic trip! Catfish Chris was an excellent guide with the right mix of humor and good bio information. He knew his stuff and made everyone feel welcome and included! We loved the entire experience. Using the nets to catch the moon jellies and see the bioluminescence of the dinoflagellates was our favorite part.
Thanks, Chris, for a fun evening activity!

Nice evening on the water! - I Went solo on a tour, was a tad windy, but ended up having a awesome time. Catfish Chris was super easy going, funny, and knowledgeable about the area. We came across dolphins and alligators eating a massive decaying terpon carcass!
Would recommend to any one!

Amazing tour - Our guide was amazing. He adapted to the presence of another larger tour group and made an effort to personally speak with all of the participants and make them feel connected. We did not see manatees but we're able to spot a dolphin and many luminescent jellies. He gave us information on the best time to come to see the full luminescent displays. We had a variety of participants... from experienced to new and he kept the tour flowing so those of us who have kayaked were not helpd back by those who were newer.

Sunset tour with Chris 5/25/24 - Chris took us out for the sunset tour. He was such a delight. Very knowledgeable and kept us entertained the whole time. We saw about 6 dolphins swimming in the lagoon, plus got to touch the bio-jellies. Such a memorable experience. We will definitely be back!!
