Teens will love it - great day on the water with family
So much fun! Had a great day on the water with family and guides. My teen boys had a blast. I really enjoyed cruising down the canals, looking at all the beautiful homes and vantage points of the city from the water absolutely something you will not get from driving around. I do not have much experience driving a power boat and found this very easy to use and navigate, much to our guides detailed instruction. They were great and even took pictures of the family along the way which is a great keepsake. Boys are just waiting for their boaters' cards to come in and we will be booking again. Thank you for a great experience! Kristin D

Amazing Kayak Experience!
We did this tour with myself (43), my wife (48), our son and his friend (17) and our daughter (8). It was so much fun! Allie was our guide and she was AMAZING!!! We saw lots of dolphins, found whelks and spider crabs while snorkeling, and had some great photo spots! Definitely bring lots of water and I would recommend being in at least decent shape. It was quite the upper body work out, but so much fun! Would definitely do it again! If you book this tour, make sure to ask for Allie!!!!

Kayaking wire Sunfit and JJ
Laid back easy paddle with JJ! Super informative and experienced about the area and also great history lesson about the story of the “lady of the Mangrove” saw some manatee, beautiful mangroves, Osprey, and fish jumping everywhere. The Cormorants were also very entertaining around our boats. Easy to find. Easy to check in. Great morning on the water.

Great family activity
Logan was a great tour guide. We had 2 other guides with us who were also helpful. We saw 2 manatee and dolphin swimming just beneath/beside us. A little walk on an island with some pretty shells was a nice little break before kayaking back. The water was calm. Beautiful views. The whole family really enjoyed it.

Soooo much fun!
This was my favorite Sarasota experience! It rained during our 9:30 kayaking but they let us stay out as long as we could with the weather! Lots of exploring the local sea life with the awesome, funny guys that run everything! So glad we got to do this!

Dolphin watching and more
The boat company was very efficient and welcoming. Boat captain & crew were very helpful and knowledgeable and friendly. We saw dolphins swimming, jumping and playing. Learned about some dolphin habits and instincts. We went birding and enjoyed the entire trip.

This was one of my...
This was one of my absolute favorite parts of visiting Sarasota. The Clear Kayak LED Night Glass Bottom Tour was such a beautiful experience, especially being out on the water at sunset and then seeing everything light up at night. It was peaceful, unique, and such a memorable way to experience Siesta Key.
The tour guides, Matt and Corbin, were amazing. You could tell they both genuinely love what they do and really care about making sure everyone has a great experience.
This was my first time kayaking, and I was also doing the tour solo, so I was definitely a little nervous at first. Corbin was especially patient and kind. When I was having trouble turning around and keeping up with the group, they calmly helped by attaching my kayak and towing me along so I could relax and enjoy the experience instead of feeling stressed or embarrassed.
They made me feel completely comfortable and supported, which meant so much as a first-time kayaker and solo traveler. Because of their patience and encouragement, I was able to fully enjoy what turned out to be one of the most beautiful and unforgettable experiences of my trip.
I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Sarasota — especially if you’ve never kayaked before. Don’t let that stop you. You’ll be in great hands with Matt and Corbin.

Memorable
Good time, tour guide guy is cool. Easy going and knowledgeable.
My 10 year old son wants to do it again when we come back next year.
If you have a little one who enjoys checking out creatures on the beach or anywhere really, they will love this and you will too.

Good guide, even better scenery
Our guide was very good, minded our safety and very informative. Jo-on ( not sure how to spell his name). We didn't see manatees or dolphins on that particular morning, but that is nature. The weather and scenery more than made up for it. Leisurely pace, good for generally decent fitness.

Great experience
It's a great time. I was cautious at first, as my daughter did the activity, not me. She was first to go out of 11 people, and I stayed on shore to wait for her. The captain and 1st mate were wonderful and made her at ease. They were very friendly and easy to talk to. My daughter, after her experience, told me it was a great time. This was on her bucket list and her experience was phenomenal. Would recommend these guys guys for the experience. BTW...the photographer was awesome. I bought the photos and gopro video for my daughter's experience and he did a wonderful job. Thanks guys

Awesome kayaking Tour!
Jordan was an awesome tour guide, knowledgeable, and knows the area well. He's funny and helpful too! . We saw dolphins and ducks in the open water. The ducks swam with and under our kayaks. They were super social and sweet. Navigating The man groves was super cool . Highly recommend this tour!

When you visit Sarasota, you’d be forgiven for wanting to spend every spare moment lying on the beach—but then you would miss out on a ton of fun activities. There are Sarasota tours, for instance, that take you kayaking in areas known for manatees, parasailing over nearby islands, boating to look for dolphins, or fishing for trout. There are even nighttime boating adventures with clear-bottom kayaks so you can see all sorts of life underwater. Back on dry land, you can also take an expert-led walk to explore the city’s architecture and cuisine.
