What a wonderful experience! Our tour guide, Caleb was absolutely wonderful! He knew so much about the area, and answered all of my silly questions. He made the tour so fun, and relaxing. We did see a few dolphins at the end of the trip, tons of birds (amazing birds I can’t name them all but wow!) no manatees, but I learned that they like warmer water :) so I’ll come back in summer and see them. Definitely recommend. Especially if you’re lucky enough to get Caleb as your guide.

Christina was a great guide. Patient, accommodating, a good photographer too! We had good time. Spotted birds and dolphin. Mangrove tunnel was fun too.

It was a windy evening trip with a great guide, Gabby. Very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna, and polite and fun as well. I would highly recommend it. Though we only saw a couple of manatees from a distance, we actually knew that we might not see any due to the weather coming in. My whole family had a wonderful time, and for a lot of information on some other areas to access for wildlife viewing and camping. Launch and return area was well equipped and easy to get to. Communications through email were great, so just remember to read them..lol. And the photos and movies taken as added bonus were great memories.

The trip was a wonderful evening in nature. DJ our guide was excellent. Highly attentive and ensured that we had a safe and wonderful experience. He was highly knowledgeable and provided lots of excellent insight. He took many excellent photos to collect memories for us.
Clinton_M, Jul 2025
This was an awesome kayaking experience! We saw at least a dozen manatees, jumping fish, small crabs, blue herons and countless other birds. The tour guide, Aiden, did an excellent job guiding us! Definitely the coolest part was going through the mangrove trail and tunnels. It was a cloudy night so no sunset, but we didn’t mind at all!
Ami_A, Mar 2025
I got to kayak and see manatees eating the mangrove leaves!! And saw a dolphin or 10! Definitely a check off my bucket list! The guide was amazing and knowledgeable!

It was fun to go thru the Mangrove tunnels. I was disappointed not to see any Dolphins or Manatees though.

We had an amazing time and witnessed some memorable dolphin behaviors! There was one racing around in a way that even Jordyn had never seen! The tunnels felt like we were in an Amazonian adventure, so fun

Dolphins sure are funny animals and its so cool that you were able to witness some of those behaviors! We are so happy to hear about your amazing experience with Jordyn. Thank you for coming on tour with us!

MaiVee_L, Aug 2022
Mary was amazing. We were the only ones for the sunset tour and it made the experience even better for us. We saw a dolphin or two right away but only for a moment. Saw sea snails, crabs, mullets jumping, an unfortunate mouse floating, and more dolphins on our way in. Being on the water at sunset was beautiful. Definitely worth the money and time.
Donna_C, Jul 2022

Emily_A, May 2021
Hands down the best part of our vacation. We got lucky right from the start when a fish jumped in our kayak! We went on to see EVERYTHING... Mangroves, manatee, a dolphin and the most beautiful sunset. Our guide Jessica was phenomenal. She took extra time to help us spot mammals and was a knowledgeable guide. She even took pictures of the group and emailed them so that we got to have some great photos from the experience. 10/10 would recommend and would even do again! Bring bug spray ;)
Response from Host, May 2021
