As with the lycanthrope and the centaur, two ancient beast/man hybrids, the word “kayak” comes from the Greek term meaning “half-man half-boat.” Unleash your aquatic side with today's Groupon at Tarpon Bay Explorers on Sanibel Island. Choose from two options:

• For $13, you get a two-hour single-person kayak rental (a $26.50 value).
• For $17, you get a two-hour two-person kayak rental (a $34.98 value).

Tarpon Bay Explorers furnishes adventurers with sturdy kayaks, canoes, bikes, and pontoon boats for embarking on warm-weather escapades. Paddle away for two hours of solo or buddy-enhanced exploration through the meandering tributaries and aquatic expanses of Tarpon Bay and the mangrove-lined Commodore Creek Water Trail. Marine life abounds in the coastal watery wilderness, where skippers can expect to spot dolphins, manatees, sea birds, lightly slumbering Poseidons and more. Two-person kayak passengers also enjoy the buoyant benefits of the included flotation vests, guarding against the lure of chic underwater dance clubs.
