Why wear goggles when you can paddle a 100% clear kayak in these crystal clear waters? Grab your window seat to a view like no other + see Santa Rosa Sound from a whole new perspective with this guided eco-tour! Our clear kayaks have the benefit of greater visibility of the underwater world so be on the lookout for a variety of wildlife! Our tour takes us to the area less traveled outside of Destin so we don't have to worry about all the boat traffic. There will be plenty of opportunities for us to view + enjoy nature! So be on the lookout for dolphins, birds, turtles, crabs, fish + so much more! We take our time exploring uninhabited spoil island where we will have the chance to take a dip or explore the beaches!

5.00Cory was very nice and very knowledgeable. #1 for him was always safety. He ensured we were safe and gave very good information. We saw a crab, a couple of stingrays little fishes and little crabs we saw an eel also that has been living there for a while. Very cool experience.!
Kayaking is worth the row!

5.00I enjoyed the experience. I enjoyed my 1st kayaking trip. I was anxious since it was my 1st time but Jamie is a very calming guide. It’s not an excursion if you are nervous about water stay off the kayak! This is relaxing and u will love it once you’re out there. Be sure to specify if you want a single or double when booking, others made last minute changes and that delayed our group. This was a wonderful end to our trip. Highly recommend!
Fun times to be had!

5.00Jack was a very knowledgeable guide and always had our safety in mind. We got to see areas of the sound that people on boats can’t see. We all had a great time.

5.00We had an amazing time kayaking in Clearwater with our tour guide Jack! From the moment we arrived, Jack made us feel welcomed and comfortable. He was super knowledgeable about the area, shared interesting facts about the wildlife and surroundings, and kept the whole group engaged the entire time. The route was beautiful, the water was crystal clear, and we even spotted some dolphins along the way! Jack went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having a great experience. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for a fun and relaxing way to explore Clearwater!

5.00We had a fun tour with Lyric. He gave us the history of the place and told us about Pirate's Cove. We nearly got to see a sting ray! They are fast. He went at a great pace for all of us and got us back safe.

5.00Elliot was a very good guide. He was very knowledgeable about the local ecosystem. If we go again, it'll be here!!
Pretty sunset, lack luster guiding

3.00Husband and I did the sunset kayak tour, sunset was pretty and the kayaking was fun. But trip was overpriced considering the duration and the guide Jamie was not very engaging or informative. She started the trip talking about how she had never met the owners of the business, she had a dispute with the land owner next to the kayak launch point and joked about getting shot, needing to pay rent for her sisters. Far too much personal information, far too little information about the area, wildlife etc.
Corey was a great guide...
