Jeff was awesome!! Loved the tour and all of Jeff's information and knowledge about the stuff we saw. I love that he took photos of all the groups and took us to Midnight Pass beach. We even saw manatees

Amazing experience! I booked the day of, and Greg was there and ready for us. He had extra water ready, waterproof cases, and bags for our belongings, and he even allowed us to keep our extra things in his truck with him! Extremely friendly and a great overall experience. I will be back on our next trip!

While vacationing for the first time in Siesta Key wanted to find something to do. My G/F and I are good kayakers and this seemed to fit the bill. Easy to find launch area. Our guide was very chill and informative. Did a great job leading us to some amazing areas with information about them. Small group was really nice and made it very easy to get from one point to the other. I would recommend.

Patrick led a safe, fun and informative trip through the mangroves. Then got to see dolphins, a manatee and many cormorants. Highly recommend!

Excellent trip! It was our first time with a guided trip in the Siesta area. Previously we have been on tours in the Lido area. Jacob was our tour guide and he was awesome! The area is beautiful and we had an amazing time. Highly recommend to anyone!

We got to see a group of 7 manatees immediately after embarking! Jeff was very knowledgeable and a great guide.

Great kayak experience for all skill levels. Easy to make your reservations through TripAdvisor. Plenty of parking at the beach head where multiple kayak tours set out. Once you get started - you set off in the small intracoastal area - giving your guide the ability to assess your level of kayaking. We had one person with zero experience in our group and Javier gave her great tips and got her confidence up to expert level in no time. The water was calm - we had no problems navigating our way through the mangroves and off to the “secret beach” so we could enjoy the gulf waters. I was a little skeptical about getting out and then back in the kayak at the beach - but again - Javier made it a very easy and seamless process. Ospreys, mullets, manatees, herons and pelicans accompanied our tour. Sadly no dolphins but you never know when they may show up. Great morning kayaking experience.
