Great time! - Izzy and Jizelle were wonderful! We did the raccoon island tour and saw multiple raccoons. I'd definitely recommend this tour if you want to kayak and see raccoons. The boat ride with beverages was a wonderful addition.

Unforgettable! - Where to begin! From the moment you pull up to the moment you depart you have nothing short of an amazing experience. Sean was our tour guide, he is very knowledgeable and answered any and all questions that we had. He educated us about bird island, sandspur island, and the areas surrounding. We had a rainy experience, but that didn’t change a thing! We kayaked instead of using the SUP. Even if you’re already familiar with kayaking, Sean still goes over the basics with you as a refresher to make sure you’re comfortable. Never be afraid to ask questions! When you go, dress accordingly (swim clothes) and wear water shoes! The experience we had was incredible and will never be forgotten.

Very fun experience with Ashley - I really enjoyed the tour by Ashley. She was very friendly and knew her stuff too. She showed us the basics as this was the first time I tried kayaking and she told us all about the wildlife we saw on the islands. The tour came with refreshments and watermelon too.

Good times and memorable - Easy breezy vibes. Check in. Get the brief instructions & headed out on the kayak. Alejandra, the guide, was friendly & chill. Along with the captain, Miguel. Miguel’s the man getting us to raccoon island with beverages to keep us hydrated and cooled off the raccoons while not many were out looking for friendly generous engagement. Good times and memorable.
