Description

Follow your entertaining biologist tour guide through the mangroves of south Naples & Marco Island on this 1.5 - 2 Hour adventure. Look for dolphins, birds, crabs, fish, conch shells & manatees! Along the way, we'll be teaching you about the mangroves, the history of the area & pointing out any wildlife we find. Did you mention cheesy dad jokes included? Yes... our tour guides actually have a sense of humor! We've been at this more than 10 years. Free photos of you and your family are always included and given to you after the tour. And don't worry, there are NO ALLIGATORS! We have single seater kayaks for ages 12+ with comfortable high back seats & cupholders. We also have tandem kayaks for adults with children ages 3-12. We do NOT offer "hobie pedal" kayaks because they can't go into the shallow mangrove tunnels like our kayaks can. We have small groups of up to 12 people. Our competitors will stick you in a tandem kayak with strangers & 30 other people. Yikes! Book with us today!

Kayaking with family

We made a very nice trip through the mangrove. Our guide was very funny and knew a lot. As soon as our kayak hit the water we were accompanied by a group of dolphins. K

Mangrove June Tunnel Kayaking

Overall - good experience and well organized by the team. Our guide Chandler did a great job of guiding us through the rowing process and keeping the entire 1.5-2 hour time intercative, fun, and social. We were able to start pretty promptly and on time and the location was convenient. Overall a good experience.

Kayaking in the mangroves

Very fun and informative! Wonderful tour guide who had a lot of knowledge on the area and wildlife. Only thing I would suggest is giving out a bottle of water before trip. Got very hot 🥵 other than that it was. awesome 👏

Must do for your vacation.

Definitely a great way to spend the morning if you’re on a vacation. The guides were great and very informative about the area we were kayaking in. At one point you can get out and swim around for a little bit.

Stand up in the boat

We enjoyed our experience. Our guide didn't talk too much or too little and was there for any and all questions. If you looking for a couple hour on the water we highly recommend these guys. Ask for the 'Turkish cowboy".

Saw dolphins and traveled...

Saw dolphins and traveled through the mangroves. Experience navigating a kayak is a must. The guide was funny, experienced and helpful to those on the tour with difficulty navigating the water ways.
