This was a fun experience. Eric was a great guide. He educated us on some of the wildlife we might see (unfortunately we didn’t see any). It was still a fun experience. He and the other guide were very patient and helpful. He even taught those who did not know how to use a paddle board how to use one.

Jesse and Eric were excellent! Jesse got us checked in and shared history of the company and the brothers. Eric shared some great info on the sea life and kept everyone engaged. We were very lucky and saw 2 dolphins interacting g and swimming amongst our tour group and for some great photos and videos. Thanks for a great time. Highly recommend.

    Easy to get to, plenty of parking, guides were very friendly and helpful. Our guide John was informative and did well for his first time out. All different levels of kayaking and paddle boarding experience can easily take tour, guides were helpful to all. By the end all paddle boarders were standing. Not the best day for wildlife, we saw one dolphin at the end. However, nature is unpredictable and not a reflection of the tour. We would definitely recommend and will do the tour again in the future.

Hopefully this won't be the last time you paddleboard and we hope to see you out on our Three Brothers Adventure Tours again in the future! Thank you so much for booking with us and supporting family owned and operated businesses!

    The excursion was...

    Leslie_L, Apr 2026
    The excursion was misleading from the advertisement. Of course, no guarantee to see much, but likely to see nothing. The water was not clear as in the picture either. We were also informed and delayed an hour from our initial time which was not a big deal, but then waited quite a bit after we got there to get started as well. I honestly wouldn’t recommend this. It should be advertised as kayaking or paddle boarding, without mention of dolphins, manatees, sea turtle viewing. Those MIGHT be an added bonus.

    Great family adventure!

    Not what you think it was.

    Jill_M, Mar 2026
    The experience is not what you think it is. Unfortunately, we were there from 10:30am until 1:30. This was supposed to be 2hours. We mostly sat around on the paddle boards waiting on the guide. We never saw anything. We paddled down the one way waiting for the guide, which was probably 20 minutes or so to just tell us to turn back around and go down by the bridge. We went down pass the bridge near of where the gulf starts and sat around just listening to facts and the guide tell us about him selves. Then, 10 minutes later he tells us to go back towards the tree area where we just came from. Not sure why we were going in circles this whole team. I don’t believe this is worth the amount of money we paid. It was 3 hours of just paddling up and down the water and never saw anything. Come to find out the water is too dirty this time of year but during the summer months the water is clear. Why give a tour when there is nothing to see. Very disappointed and ends up leaving without saying anything to the guide, because we were so annoyed.

    Great fun

    Donald_H, Mar 2026
    Great time on the water. Lots to look at. Eric was a great guide. You get periods to rest if you are worried about keeping up with the group.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Thanks for the 5 star review about your time on the water and with Eric! Were glad to hear you were to enjoy the tour and the pace and timing worked out great for everyone! Thanks for booking with Three Brothers Adventure Tours!

    A Fun Way to Explore the Mangroves

    Amy_G, Mar 2026
    We had a great morning out on the water. Our guide, Eric, was friendly and knew a lot about the local ecosystem and wildlife. He shared interesting facts and made sure the trip stayed relaxed. We didn’t see any dolphins or manatees on our trip, but that’s just how it goes with nature—wildlife shows up when it wants to. Still, paddling through the mangroves and along the coast was beautiful. We live here and spend plenty of time on the water, but we still really enjoyed ourselves. It was a fun way to see the area from a new angle and enjoy a few peaceful hours outside. If you remember that spotting wildlife is a bonus, not a promise, you’ll have a great time. We did see lots of birds. Bring bug spray because the no-see-ums at the launch were biting, and don’t forget your sunscreen!

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Nothing Beats Being Out on the Water

    ErnestoRogelio_R, Dec 2025
    My partner and I had flown in from San Francisco a couple of days before our tour, and nothing beats being out on the water!! It was my partner's first time on a paddleboard, and Eric patiently worked with all the first-timers, ensuring they were comfortable and ready for our time together out on the water. During the tour, Eric shared quite a bit of information about the animals above and below water, which gave our tour an educational aspect I did not expect, but welcomed. I was thrilled we did this tour and would recommend it highly to anyone visiting the area!

    Playful dolphin paddle through the mangroves

    Alan_D, Dec 2025
    Leisurely paddle through the mangroves visiting local wildlife. The guide was knowledgeable and kind. We saw a playful dolphin that swam around us and caught a sheep head fish. He entertained us by throwing it in the air and re catching it over and over.

    Michelle_S, Nov 2025
    Our kayak experience was awesome. Eric was our guide and was exceptional. He suggested to our son to use the paddle board which he did and had a great experience. Eric was very helpful. We got to paddle with a dolphin and see a manatee along with several bird species

    Eric, our tour guide, was fantastic. He knew exactly what areas to go to for the best chances to see wildlife. We were able to see manatees and dolphins-it was amazing!
