We launch from the closest access point to Mangrove Cay in Providenciales, meaning less travel time and more time exploring the wildlife. Unlike other tours that tow kayaks through busy channels, you’re in the mangroves within minutes—calm, clear, and full of life. Combined with fully transparent kayaks, you get a true above-and-below water experience in one of the island’s most protected ecosystems.

4.00Operator nice friendly and good. Boats were fine, but not as “clear” as the names suggested. We saw lots of interesting marine life!
Perfect day

3.00We had a good time. And I also don’t usually write bad reviews. But just be aware that there isn’t a lot of wildlife to see. I understand on each day things are diff. But in general in Turks there isn’t a lot of fish. We saw one snapper, 2 turtles, a conch and 1 jellyfish. We loved kayaking thru the mangroves. But it also becomes very busy with other kayakers hitting into eachother. It doesn’t seem like the guides talk to eachother bc one group saw sharks and our guide didnt bring us there. They also were mumbling the whole time we could barely hear them. And I don’t have hearing problems lol. They didn’t introduce themselves either or say hello, I had no idea his name and he wasn’t very positive or energetic. Told us some facts, but couldn’t answer a few questions we had. We saw some iguanas on the island and then did the tour. It’s a lot of kayaking and the tour was actually almost 3 hrs. In general it was pretty and I’m glad we did it. The kayaks were clear. But I think it needs some improvement in my opinion!
Loved it!! Great adventure

4.00overall it was a very nice experience. I would like to make a few suggestions however. The kayaks are not especially floaty and are very difficult for heavier adults to manage. During the orientation talk, they requested that we do not touch or harass the animals but the guides would pick up the conch to show us and then put them back somewhere completely different from where they were found. They would also tap the turtles on their shells with their paddles in order to get them to move. I know they have an appreciation for these animals and nature but need more training/understanding on treating them appropriately. There were also several tour groups literally chasing the baby sharks around in order to see them. I know we all want to see these things, but during other tours like this, there are very strict rules about how close people are allowed to get to the wildlife. These rules should be applied here as well.
Great experience

5.00It was a great experience. We saw iguanas, turtles, lemon sharks, jellyfish, and conches. Sam, our guide, was very helpful and knowledgeable. Their prices are better, too.
Very engaged and friendly...

5.00Very engaged and friendly guides. Getting to see the marine life is a hit and miss but we still got to see turtles - most likely to see those, lemon shark, barracuda etc.
Incredible Mangrove Adventure - Thanks Sam!

5.00Amazing 1.5 hour experience! Price was well worth it. The clear kayak made it incredible to see sea turtles and conch right beneath us in the mangroves. Sam was fantastic—super knowledgeable and made the tour fun and easy for our small group. We saw other groups of 15+ kayaks and we were glad we chose Clear Wave! Highly recommend!
Great experience

5.00We went on the kayak tour today with Ted. We were concerned about the weather as it was very windy and we were given the option to reschedule. We chose not to and I’m so happy we went. Ted was an excellent guide. He made sure we saw conch, baby sharks, and lots of turtles. He was also great at helping us navigate our kayak thru rough water. Go you will not be disappointed.
