Amazing experience - We saw a couple of manatees in the canal and they hung around for quite a while with us, sniffing and swimming under our kayaks! We later saw some dolphins in the distance. Our guide, John, was amazing. Very funny and knowledgeable about the local wildlife and plants.

Fun time in the bay in a kayak! - Kevin was professional, knowledgeable, funny and caring. His marine biology background made it educational also.
Thank you

Relaxing outing but no cool sightings - We enjoyed our couples outing and had a relaxing time. The glass bottom kayaks are sturdy and had the water been clearer we might have been able to see some things; but we saw nothing to speak of. The guide was informative, friendly and welcoming.

Meh - John was a great guide but we didn't really see anything and water is murky so no need for clear bottoms. Just not a very scenic route.

Clear kayaks - Location changed due to wind? Went in very shallow area, mangroves, no sightings of dolphins, manatees, 3 guides , too large of group , only saw crabs and snails , disappointing for the money and tips requested

Truly terrible - Terrible experience. They cancelled my tour last minute because they said they don’t make enough money because I booked through Trip Advisor. The day before I offered to pay DOUBLE and they agreed just so I could still do it. Then the day of the tour, when I have no chance to book somewhere else for my day trip they tell me to get a refund from “viator.” Really awful!!
