Our expeditions are not only tranquil but also informative as they are guided by professional biologists or naturalists from the state of Florida. Our explorations offer opportunities for direct encounters with some of the animals we come across. Our guide will teach you how to approach these creatures respectfully and securely. We assure you that our kayaks are exceptionally steady and safe. Prior to embarking on the water journey, our guides provide a comprehensive demonstration on paddling and a safety briefing.

Kayak adventure with Erin - Great experience…saw over a dozen osprey, 3 giant blue heron, 5 dolphin, schools of mangrove snapper. And an alligator in the mangrove tunnels. Erin was very knowledgeable of all the surrounding wildlife, The Florida ecosystem, and the history. Caution- mosquitoes are swarming in the mangrove tunnels, but Erin comes prepared with all natural mosquito repellent, Great experience

Just right for beginners and experienced paddlers as wrll - Cameron was a very knowledgeable guide who was patient with beginners. Although we did not spot dolphins or manatees, it wasn’t for lack of trying and we learned a lot about local flora and fauna.
