Really enjoyed our guided kayak eco tour. Our kayak was the only one for this trip so we had the undivided attention of guides Cameron & Ashley, each was very knowledgeable about the ecosystem and relayed lots of interesting information. Highly recommend!

Beautiful!! A little challenging if you are new to kayaking. Guides were wonderful, full of knowledge, patient, and fun. There are no gators or snakes. The guide was in the water a lot, it was very salty water. My kids are all teenagers and thought they would be scared but they all enjoyed it a LOT!! I wasn't very good and was crocked and backwards a lot laughing. But that was part of what was so much fun. You really get time to learn each other and allow them to make a decision on how to fix a situation, laugh about it, learn, and know whether you want to go again. Definitely GO. No negatives!!!🩵🩵🩵 If you have the day come early, pack a lunch, and walk a bunch of trails. No restrooms. They have little water boxes to hold keys, wallet and phone. My kayak water pics won't post. But they were cool. Your files have to be small to post here. Have fu🛶

Our guide was knowledgeable with the area and explained the difference of the mangroves. He also took his time and didn’t rush through our tour.
