Awe inspiring - First off we got to experience a once in a lifetime! It was only my husband and myself with our wonderful guide Julie. A passing boat informed us they thought there were Manatees nearby so we paddled to the spot. We saw many manatees who were mating(?) or something and we couldn’t tell how many were in the frenzy. Many times they came up to our kayaks even passing underneath as if checking us out we saw 1 or 2 with their babies lifting their heads above water. It was such a Magical experience that the rest of the ride seemed uneventful. We circled around the mangrove and When we got back to the same spot, there was not a manatee in sight. I believe things happen for a reason, and for some reason we were put there to witness the spectacular event.

Great way to get on the water and experience nature! - Took this tour with my husband and our four teenage kids. We all had a lot of fun and saw so much wildlife! Julie is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, as well as the wide variety of plants and animals we encountered. We were fortunate to see some rarely-spotted birds, and even some tiny bioluminescent jellyfish! Highly recommend this tour!!

A pleasant amble around the river - An enjoyable leisurely amble around the river, whilst the host pointed out the various wildlife and shared her local knowledge. Saw some mating sting rays and dolphins close up.
