Great tour for families - We had a great time with our guide! Wendi the paddle boards. We saw lots of dolphins and even some manatees even though the water was cold. We plan to come back to do the tour in the summer.

Our first time on paddleboards - Andrew was our guide and showed us how to paddleboard. He was great at encouraging us on this first-time paddle board experience! saw manatees (including a baby and a huge adult coming up for air). Also saw sting rays, fish, egret, and heron. Think we got exactly what we hoped for. Highly recommend this tour!

Amazing! - We had an amazing experience with Andrew on our tour. We went in the morning and unfortunately didn’t see anything and so Andrew invited us back for the evening tour, which was so amazing. We loved every minute of it! Thanks Andrew for making our paddle board experience so great!

A great addition to any beach trip - This was the second time we took a kayak tour with SoBe and again had a great experience. Our guide was knowledgeable and I formative and kept things fun. And to make it even better we saw a pod of dolphins. We would recommend it.

Fun experience with great guide - Andrew, our guide, got us comfortable in our paddle boards right away. We enjoyed learning about the fish, birds and plant life as we paddled out to look for manatees. Encountered a dolphin and enjoyed traveling with him. Searched for manatees but were disappointed that day. I think our guide was more disappointed than we were. We just really enjoyed the experience!
