Lovely Kayak Experience.

Heather was wonderful! So knowledgeable about the area and eco system. She was also sure to include everyone and took time to make all of us feel included. She answered all our questions with enthusiasm! It was a beautiful trip.

Relaxing and Interesting!

Did this kayak tour with my son-in-law and enjoyed it very much. I am not a practiced kayaker by any means, but it was an easy, interesting trip with lots of plant and animal life. Highly recommended.

Beautiful mangroves

We had a lovely mangrove tour and enjoyed the knowledge that our guide shared with us. It was a very hot day but we were well shaded under the canopy of the mangroves. Worth the visit!

We learned so much exploring the Mangroves

We had the best time learning about the red mangroves and the ecosystem they provide. Our guide Rachel (tall) was so knowledgeable and had so many interesting facts to share! She was able to point out many different species that otherwise I would have missed. It was such an enjoyable tour!
