My girlfriend and I signed up for kayaking and we are very happy with our experience. Paul was simply stellar. His courteous and accommodating demeanor warmed us up from the get-go. When my girlfriend needed to use the restroom before we set off, he facilitated it without reducing our time on the water. He was attentive to our needs, offering paddleboards, single, and tandem kayaks. His concern for our comfort, particularly regarding the back support on the tandems, was commendable, and his continual check-ins made us feel valued. An unexpected bonus was that we were his only customers that day. This led to a personalized experience that was extremely enjoyable. Paul was a vibrant conversationalist, his passion for the environment and water activities shining through. His enthusiastic presence helped dissolve our initial apprehensions and established a sense of ease that lasted throughout the trip. We had a quick journey through the Mangrove outcroppings adjacent to the Bonnet House grounds. Most of our time was spent in the intercoastal waterway, which was equally rewarding and more of a challenge with the small waves coming from passing boats. The entire experience felt safe and it was an exciting challenge. Paul's knack for photography added a memorable touch to our experience. He captured a collection of wonderful pictures that he promptly shared with us post-trip, a testament to his dedication to making our journey unforgettable. I would heartily recommend Paul's kayaking experience to anyone looking for a leisurely, comfortable outing. It may not test your paddling prowess, but the good-quality equipment, amicable company, and the lasting impression it leaves makes it a worthwhile adventure.

It was such an excellent experience. We rented kayaks for two hours. We were given excellent suggestions with helpful directions also. Since there were plenty of kayaks, we were even allowed to keep them a little longer than our two-hour limit. We even came back to some mangos to take home with us, and greetings from a beautiful little dog. The service was wonderful, friendly, and accommodating. Can't wait to come back.

We had a great experience with Paul paddleboarding for the first time in the tranquil, lovely Coconut Cove. Paul really cared about our enjoyment and comfort. Highly recommend.

My guide was fantastic. Saw iguanas and a hawk. Got exercise and got to see a little of the inter costal waterway.

We took a kayak tour this morning with Paul and had a wonderful time. Paul was very knowledgeable of all the sights and history. He made the trip fun and captured pictures of our group along the way. He took great care of us. We had experience in kayaks, but I would be comfortable recommending the tour to people who are less experienced. The tour also included access to the Bonnet House property.
