Canoe, snorkel, and wildlife galore! Well worth every penny!

This island adventure was so fun! Be ready to row a canoe and get a workout! Blaze, our guide, was very friendly, knowledgable, and an excellent tour guide. We saw crabs, sea slugs, hermit crabs, and so many live sand dollars! The bird watching was awesome, we saw herons, pelicans, egrets, white ibis, and cormorants! Make sure you wear your sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to shield you from the sun as you canoe to the sand banks to snorkel! I highly recommend this adventure! Make sure to tip your guide! Well worth every penny!

Awesome experience

The kayak island tour was the favorite thing we did on Anna Maria. Definitely worth the money. Our guide was very knowledgeable and happy to answer questions we had about wild life and the island. We will definitely book this again!

Beautiful clear water, lots to explore!

This was such an amazing experience! I went out with the morning Island tour and the waters were crystal clear. We snorkeled and saw so many crabs and little creatures. And then we paddled over to Pine Key and swam in those clear waters and saw where the turtles are beginning to nest. On our way back, we saw a manatee come out of the water to say hi! It was all around a wonderful experience if you are adventurous, fit and able to paddle a few miles in ocean water, and looking to explore and swim in beautiful water! The tour guides were knowledgeable and made sure that everyone was comfortable and happy. Highly recommend booking this tour!

Island tour

Was very windy which was nobody's fault. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. Saw dolphins and a couple manatees. Would have been great if the water was calm but still an enjoyable experience!

Florida Blue Adventures is a Great Kayak Tour

Our experience was great with Florida Blue Adventures Coastal Kayak Tours. We first booked for Sunday for my family of 8 the night before and then the day of we adventured out and the sirens went off to head back to shore lightening storms. Tommy was amazing in helping reschedule and refund. We rescheduled for 4 of us due to family going back on Monday. So 4 ppl were refunded. We went back on Tuesday and Lachlan and Blaze were very helpful and kind tour guides. It was a wonderful experience. They made sure EVERYONE in the group got a chance to see everything such as sand dollars crabs dolphins manatees hermit crabs conch shells mangroves and so on. Made sure everyone knew what to do and were prepared for the trip. Great customer service. Equipment was well cared for and clean. This tour is great for all ages.
