Nursery of Sharks - We had a great time. It was very relaxing. We saw a family of nurse sharks towards the end of the tour. It was really cool!

Relaxing and Educational Kayak Trip - Noah was our guide. His knowledge of marine and bird life is stellar. He took us to all the points where the he typically finds things. We saw nurse sharks, red coral, parrot fish, barracuda, tarpon, snapper, several starfish. Pelicans , osprey and another bird that I cannot remember ! He is also a great conversationalist discussing and answering all of our questions. The turtle was elusive this trip but that happens.

Noah is the best! - Noah was a great guide. Took us through the mangroves, out into the open areas and searching for wildlife. Since we were the only people in our group, we had a private tour! Beautiful day!

Marvelous mangrove tour - We had a fun and informative couple of hours with our excellent guide Noah. We learned a lot and saw a ton of fish, including a nice size nurse shark. Nice afternoon and respite from the wildlife on Duval St . 😂 Will do it again when we visit.

A good morning to spend the day in Key West - It was a chilly 58 degrees the day of our tour but we still went out. Our guide was great and we had a very relaxed time on the water. The jelly fish we saw were pretty amazing though the water was a bit murky due to the cold front that came through. Still had a great time in the water!

Memorable tour - Our guide, Jaimie, was great and gave us a memorable tour. She was patient with four middle aged women and was very knowledgeable about the area. I don’t think I’d go for the clear bottom kayak again, just because I couldn’t see much through it, but I would recommend this experience for seeing one of the natural parts of Key West.

Great experience! - My sister and I, both in our 60's and first time kayakers, had a great time. Our guide John was very patient and knowledgeable. Learned a lot about the indigenous sea life, to include gently holding a sea hare; even got to see one "ink"! We glided over sleeping nurse sharks and learned about Cassiopeia jellyfish (they look like snowflakes in water). We glided through open waters to mangrove tunnels, at a nice pace that wasn't overly tiring. This was a learning experience about the waters of Key West and if that is of interest to you, we definitely recommend this tour. (A special thanks to John for saving my sister's license from the water!)

Early morning kayaking with Sebastian - Quiet, easy, beautiful. Sebastian was an excellent guide. He found and pointed out nurse sharks, iguanas, snow flake jelly fish, and local birds. We learned more about mangroves. Very nice!

New Years Day paddle through the mangroves - Noah was a terrific guide. We saw manatees, a nurse shark, sea hares, starfish, corral, and lots of fish and birds. Beautiful tour through the mangrove tunnels. Such a great way to ring in the New Year. Highly recommend.

Fun day on thenwater - Great experience - lots of fun. Jamie was great, very knowledgeable and patient with us new kayakers. It is a full 2 hours of rowing and pulling through the mangroves so it takes some strength and a little stamina, but fun! There was an issue with the dock - the steps getting onto the dock weren’t right and a little scary, but with help it was fine. Hopefully fixed now.
