Great kayaking tour - It was a great kayaking trip! Kaleb was an amazing guide and knew a lot about the wildlife and types of mangroves in the area. We kayaked a few feet from a dolphin-very cool! Swam right past us! I would highly recommend this tour.

A good time at Turtle Beach - We went with Jeff out of Turtle Beach. He was a great guide. He was friendly, well prepared and good fun to talk with. He stopped a few times and gave us a whole bunch of information about the environment that we'd never heard before. This was an enjoyable and informative experience. Glad we did it.

Ask for Jeff! He’s the Best! Love Kayaking SRQ! - We Absolutely Love Jeff at Kayaking SRQ! We should probably own kayaks by now but we just love seeing Jeff. He’s become our kayaking family-Kayak Dad. He’s always so happy! He gives the kids sharks teeth and educates the kids about marine life, he loves rating their dock jumps and he always lets us know where the manatees are and what the water conditions are. We just really enjoy renting from Kayaking SRQ! Jessie makes it easy to book and they really go above and beyond.
