Highlights

Meet your guide at the paddleboard site in Daytona Beach at your selected tour time. (The 8:30am and 10:30am tours are recommended as this is when the weather is normally the best and when dolphins and manatees are the most active).

Most people who take the tour have never tried paddle boarding, so every tour begins with a ground demonstration and lesson. There is a calm bay where everyone will have a chance to try out their paddleboards and get comfortable. If you still do not feel feel comfortable, there are kayaks on site that you can use instead.

Your adventure will begin with a circle around an island, where you’ll pass under seven bridges, through a Yatch Club and alongside Yachts. Then go through small and large canals close to shore, in relatively shallow water. You will pass through areas that have high concentrations of manatees and dolphins.

Tours includes all gear required and concludes at the original departure point. The tour is approximately two hours long, however, please allow for three hours when scheduling as sometimes the itinerary can be lengthened depending on manatee sightings.

School trip gone right - Walker was a great guide. We don’t see any dolphins or manatees - but still a really lovely day. We had so much fun and we all braved the paddle boards. It was a lot easier than expected

Ten stars!! - This tour was SO COOL! Paddle boarding is such a peaceful relaxed way of exploring nature. Our tour guide, Cam, was excellent. He was knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the wildlife and ecology of the area. He went above and beyond to point out wildlife and ensure everyone was enjoying their time. My husband and I were very impressed! The tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Marco Island!

Beautiful Nature Experience - The views along the river were beautiful! We didn’t get to see many animals but our guide Walker was great at keeping us entertained with some cool history facts and knowledge about what we did and didn’t see. Still a totally worthwhile trip to see some beautiful nature!
