Our guide Sarah was the best! Shared a ton of information about the keys and let us go at a leisurely pace. Windy day but Sarah was delightful and has a great personality!
100% Clear Kayaks: Unlike traditional kayaks, ours are completely see-through. As you paddle, you'll have a front-row seat to the vibrant marine life beneath the blueish-green waters. Eco-Tours with Marine Viewing: Our eco-tours immerse you in the rich ecosystem of the Florida Keys. Watch for starfish, nurse sharks, jellyfish, stingrays, and many other marine creatures as they go about their daily lives just inches beneath your kayak. Journey through Mangroves: The tour takes you through the pristine mangroves of Sugarloaf Key, offering a scenic and serene experience that's both refreshing and educational. You'll get to witness the delicate balance of life in these important coastal habitats. If the tide is too low or too high, your guide may adjust the route to ensure the best experience. Expert Guides: They're trained to prioritize safety while sharing interesting facts about the area's marine life and ecosystem.

Sugarloaf Key, Florida
Sugarloaf Key, nestled within the Lower Florida Keys, offers a serene escape where crystal clear water surrounds the natural beauty of the island. Sugarloaf Key is accessible from the Overseas Highway, one of Florida’s most scenic drives. Whether you’re drawn to Sugarloaf Key’s natural beauty, waterways, or laid-back lifestyle, the ecological richness is ready for you to explore. Most of the land across Sugarloaf Key is undeveloped, and some of the acreage is home to The Great White Heron National Wildlife Refuge. Whether you’re a seasoned boater or a novice, Sugarloaf Key’s surrounding waters invite exploration. Glide through crystal-clear channels, surrounded by lush mangroves and abundant marine life, including corals, starfish, and tropical fish.

The Get up and Go kayaking on Sugarloaf Key was very fun! Our guide Heidi was very knowledgeable about the mangrove ecosystem and showed us many different plants, animals and birds. It was a nice mix of paddling across the channel and relaxing while floating with the current through the mangroves. Our group was small- just two boats, so felt like a private tour!

Heidi and Andrew were great. Super knowledgeable, and made sure our kids saw the cool stuff. A little windy, but still a great trip.
