Ian did a fantastic job showing us the resident manatees and dolphins. Going through the mangrove tunnels was a very unique experience! 10/10

Well, worth it

It was awesome! This is the second time I’ve done it. First time I did it with my family, including two preteen kids this time. I did it with an adult friend both times it was truly amazing.

Thanks Ian for showing us the manatees!!

We had a great time kayaking with our guide Ian. He was knowledgeable and patient and we were able to see manatees and dolphins as well as other wildlife. It was such a unique experience kayaking through the mangrove tunnels. We did the noon tour and had great weather and saw manatees. Definitely recommend! Book this tour and ask for Ian!

We had a great time on our tour! Beautiful morning, lots of manatees out, and spotted a dolphin as well! Our guide, Ian, was incredible and knew his stuff. I highly recommend booking a tour with him if at all possible! He was by far one of the best guides we have had on a kayak tour!

Manatees

My granddaughter and I did the dolphins and manatees tour with Ian. He did a great job getting us on some manatees and sharing info about other wildlife we saw

Beautiful!

This trip was a lot of fun! The guide was really knowledgeable about the area and animals we were seeing. He was also great with children on the paddle. The mangrove tunnel was a fun experience. Our friend recommended this company for their guides specifically and we had a wonderful time! Thank you!

Worth your time and money, memories for life

We saw manatees, pelicans, birds and fish, the tour director “Susie” was exceptional! Knowledge, pointing out and explaining the historical history, provided laws and in-depth education on animals that we are seeing. Very worth the money and my time, this made my trip. Great memories and photos (taken by Susie for us). I even have the photo for my Christmas cards this year. We were out 3 hours ( bring water and lotion!). I brought all I needed but others were burned and thirsty.

Great family activity

The tour was exactly as described on the website. The company did a great job at giving directions and instructions. Our guide, Susie, was great at sharing info, answering questions, and helping us get the most out of the experience. The mangroves were really magical to paddle through and we saw TONS of manatees at the end of our trip up close to our boats. Most of the trip is in the full sun and it is HOT so I recommend extra sunscreen and water.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! 💛 We’re so glad to hear your experience with Cocoa Kayaking was exactly as expected and that everything from directions to instructions felt clear and easy. It’s wonderful that Susie helped make the tour even more enjoyable by sharing her knowledge and making sure you got the most out of the experience. Seeing manatees up close in the mangroves is truly something special, and we’re thrilled you had such an incredible encounter—what a memory! We also really appreciate you sharing helpful tips for future guests about sun exposure, sunscreen, and staying hydrated. That’s great advice for anyone heading out on the water. Thank you again for joining us and for your recommendation—we hope to welcome you back for another beautiful adventure soon! 🛶🌿🐬
