Terrific - We had a wonderful excursion. Very rewarding. Ketlyn was a great guide, keeping the perfect pace, and giving us opportunities sit and pay attention to the ecosystem. We saw lots of turtles, barracuda, lemon sharks, etc. if you want time in nature exploring the mangroves while getting some exercise, I highly recommend it.

Get Out There! - The six of us had an awesome trip and saw turtles, conch, puffer fish, and a baby shark along with many birds. Our guide was amazing, both patient and knowledgeable about the area.

Unpredictable storm. - We booked a couple excursions for the same day knowing there was a good possibility of cancelations due to the predicted storm. The other company cancelled on us two days prior. The weather ended up being perfect and it was only the 2 of us registered. Private tour? I'll take it! So pretty. We saw a couple sharks and tons of turtles. Thanks Kenlyn!

So many turtles! - Did the two hour paddleboard tour. The mangroves were lovely and we saw dozens of sea turtles, a barracuda, and a baby shark, live conch, as well as a lot of birds. A few portions the paddling was against currents and wind and a little tough. Bring sunscreen to reapply- it’s kind of brutal sun. Our guide was very nice and knowledgeable. Fun tour!

Fantastic Paddleboarding in Turks and Caicos - Tom guided us into and around the mangroves, which provide an amazing habitat here in Turks and Caicos. We saw iguanas, a shark, baracudas, many turtles, bone fish, cow fish and several conch. He brought along cold water for us to sip on a break and we were even able to go for a swim in the shallow turquoise waters part way back from the mangroves. Absolutely a must see when you are visiting Turks and Caicos. Tom was very knowlegable about the area and helpful to a variety of skill levels on the paddleboards. While waiting for our tour, since we biked there & arrived early, we had the pleasure of speaking with several of the guides, who all were friendly, interesting and fun to chat with. Fabulous tour, would do it again!

Must Do in Turks - We loved this paddle boarding trip and Tom was a great guide. It was quite a windy day and we were not even sure we would be able to go, but Tom really took care of us. He gave us some great information on the mangroves in Turks. We were excited to learn we would be seeing sharks and sea turtles. The water is so clear we were able to see so many fish and other sea life. Even though it was quite windy and it did end up being quite a workout, we were loved our paddle boarding trip. Definitely worth it.

Fantastic way to spend 2+hours - A true ECO TOUR of the mangroves led by a charming marine biologist,Caylam, who served up interesting facts about native wildlife & served us water NOT out of plastic bottles but out of sanitized reusable Yeti water bottles. Caylam took us to the less popular spots & encouraged us to just chill & wait for the creatures to come out. We were richly rewarded with visits from lemon sharks, loads of sea turtles & little green herons. 100% recommend. Big Blue Collective store sells reef-safe sunscreen & nicely designed sun shirts. Good activity for teens & up.

Awesome adventure for parents and teens - This was the perfect way to experience the mangroves! Small group with Ketlyn as an awesome guide. We saw turtles, conchs, fish up close and personal while learning about the ecosystem from Ketlyn. Top notch equipment and friendly service. My teens also really enjoyed it! Highly recommend this adventure.

Low Key Paddle Through Mangroves - Interesting jaunt through one of the most important local ecosystems. Very low key, not very physically challenging (until the end when we paddled against the current!) lots of pauses, lots of critters! Turtles, sharks, needlefish, conch..Make sure you’re covered in sunscreen!
