Loved It!!!
Self guided tour was very easy to follow on the map they provide. Bonus they provide waterproof bags big enough for your belongings which was great! We saw a dolphin which was awesome. He literally swam around my son’s kayak and got great video. The beach was soooo cool to get out and look for seashells and hit the water. We really enjoyed our experience and would definitely do it again!! Highly recommend.

Good for mom and the teenagers
This was a nice, relaxing kayaking trip that was great for me in my 50’s and for my 15 year old. It was a nice departure from the beach and a great activity for the evening. We saw a dolphin that was swim very close to the shore and other a saw manatee. Lance was great and he collected some cool shells for us. The sand was beautiful and the location for the sunset was very peaceful! Lance took pictures afterwards and sent us via text! Really a nice relaxing experience.

Fun in the Rain
The kayak tour was fantastic and just what we needed for a cloudy, rainy day in Marco Island. Foot peddling the kayak thru the mangroves and see a group of swallow-tailed kit birds flying made for a truly enjoyable trip. Thanks so much to the entire team!

Highly recommend
Nick was our guide. He was amazing and very knowledgable about the area and wildlife. He added a lot of history and facts about what we’re seeing make it more then just a kayak.. It was an enjoyable 2 1/2 hours - not too strenuous with nice breaks and the ability to see the hidden gems of the mangrove.

Best Exploration of the Everglades
Easily one of the highlights of our trip. Jason and Alec were fantastic guides. Jason's encyclopedic knowledge of the flora and fauna, especially the orchids, was impressive. Plenty of alligators and birds to see, even an Osprey nest! Went the extra mile and took us up Turner River. Such a wonderful experience that we'll always treasure. Highly recommended!!

Awesome adventure!
Chris was our guide. He was so knowledgeable about the plants, birds, alligators and fish. It was great to learn about the eco system we were kayaking through. He had great energy, eased any concerns we had and made the trip so great. His goal was to teach us how to love and appreciate the area like he does. He succeeded!!!

Great tour of a very unique place
This is a great tour. My 16 year old son and I did this tour on a cloudy day in early April. It was about 72 degrees. The meeting point was clear, the organization was well done and the guide was informative and clear. Our guide was Adam and he did a fantastic job. The thing I like about kayaking is that it is accessible to more people than hiking or biking but it gets you closer to nature than a tour on a larger boat. Plus the only way to really navigate the mangroves is via a small flat bottom boat like a kayak. Only thing to keep in mind: Depending on recent rains and depending on cloud cover, you may not be able to find or see manatees. However, we were happy with the alligators, bull sharks, heron and other animals we were able to observe in their habitat. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Lance - great guide!
Lance was our guide. He remembered everyone's name throughout the morning. He was impressive, informative and safe. I felt like we were in very good hands. It was a perfect day and I was kayaking with my 13 y/o grandnephew who lives in Ohio and has only kayaked once. Lance made him feel very comfortable and in charge of our boat. We'll do this again next spring break! Thanks Lance!

Valentine’s Kayak Treat
Dylan was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable kayak guide. He was was a wealth of information about the wildlife that we encountered on our tour. He actively found different types of snails and birds to show us. He also answered our questions in an understandable manner. The tour was more time and sights than expected. Would highly recommend this kayak tour!

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Get up close to southwest Florida’s nature and wildlife, exploring hard-to-reach places by kayak. Naples kayaking tours let you paddle through the region’s famous mangrove tunnels, looking for creatures like manatees, alligators, and a variety of birds. Or, paddle across clear and calm waters at sunset in search of dolphins. Some tours offer Hobie kayaks that let you pedal with your feet instead of paddling (to give your arms a rest), while others have clear kayaks equipped with LED lights that let you see through to the water below.
