A blast - The mangrove tunnel was a really cool experience with the mangrove crabs, white birds and the white sand. The tour guide host guy was super knowledgeable, prepared us well and was as friendly as could be.

Beautiful views! - I've rented from EJ at Nauti Exposures several times now. His kayaks are great and the location we meet at is amazing at the Cocohatchee River Marina. He meets you at your agreed upon time with the kayaks and helps you get started. He's always been on time and has always been there when we get back. You get a map so you don't get lost and he gives you some suggestions of where you might want to go. You kayak in the mangroves behind and Delnor Wiggans to the south and Barefoot Beach to the north. Last time I saw a beautiful manatee right next to my kayak and the times before lots of beautiful birds and several dolphins. You also have gulf access to the beach if you want to take a break. I would highly recommend renting from Nauti Exposures versus other locations as the scenery here is far more beautiful than down by Tin City and the Gordon River, lots less boat traffic and not too far to get into the mangrove tunnels. His prices are reasonable as well! Don't miss doing this, it's really a great time!

Great experience - We had a great time kayaking the Cocohatchee River area. EJ was a pleasure to work with. He called the day before the trip to make sure we understood where the marina was and how to find him, and he was able to adjust our meeting time to meet our needs. He was thorough giving directions for kayaking routes and we found it very easy to navigate the area with his directions and the map. Even though we didn't take the guided tour, he saw us on the beach and came over to share information about the shells and animals. He was clearly enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the area and he was dedicated to making sure his customers were taken care of. I can't recommend this company enough.

Our first kayak tour. - Took our first Kayak tour with EJ and it was awesome. EJ knew the fauna, wildlife and area very well. Plenty of stories and information to keep you interested and learning at every turn. Even told us some food places to eat and other things to do. He called to intro himself the day before and explained what to expect. Very thorough and friendly. If you going to do a kayak tour, and I recommend you do, then this is the only place to use.

Sunset Kayak - This sunset kayak trip was fantastic! The tranquill mangrove tunnels allows you to leisurely navigate while taking in the beauty of your surroundings. I was able to see the largest blue herring I think I've ever seen in my life, as well as osprey on the hunt for dinner!! There were several dolphin sightings throughout the trip, so we were sure to take the time to sit in silence to admire them as they breached the surface to exhale. This particular day was quite a windy one, but EJ was very attentive to ensure I was comfortable and content. Once we banked on Barefoot Beach, we were able to walk a quiet trail shaded by trees and then looped back walking the gorgeous white sand beach at the edge of the Gulf of Mexico. The sunset was stunning as it set over the Gulf, followed by the sky turning shades of pink and orange. The paddle back was timed to perfection...we arrived just before dark. I highly recommend EJ and this wonderful slice of paradise.
