We will book this again! - Our guide was great. It was like hanging out with a friend. Our teen was a first timer and he made sure that they were ok.

Mantees spotted even out of season! - We came during summer cuz we didn’t know it wasn’t manatee season but Melanie was able to help us spot about 6 of them! Even one with a baby by it nursing. Very patient to find the sightings. The tour was just us and the kayak was very smooth and easy

Great tour to see manatee's - The kayak tour with Melanie was a great guide for our tour. We paddled though the three sisters. We saw a manatee cow and a calf logging and it was an amazing experience all in all. We did the 8 am tour

A wonderful bay tour! - Melanie was an absolute peach of a guide with many interesting facts and local stories. The three hour tour was the perfect length to see many back alcoves in the bay and experience my favorite part of the tour, Three Sisters Speings! Absolutely stunning and so peaceful! Loved every minute of our experience, and will definitely do this again!

Manatee kayak tour - This is our second trip this year! We had an awesome time with our guide. Today we saw manatees, turtles, a dolphin, and an alligator. The kayaks we rented were top quality. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area. I would highly recommend Captain Mike’s!
