5.00Mike’s kayak tour was wonderful. He taught me about animals, tides, ecology, and more. I was able to see live conchs, many birds, dolphins several times, and even manatees.
Excellent!

5.00My 5th time out with MCE and every trip has been INCREDIBLE. I did the four hour adventure this time, and loved that we were able to paddle the gulf, bay, mangroves and more. The Hobie foot pedal kayaks make it possible to do without getting tired, and are so easy and fun to operate. Mike is such an exceptional guide - and person - and even though I have been out numerous times, I learned so much again. We saw several Manatee in two different areas lots of Dolphin and one person on our tour saw a spotted eagle ray. We were able to kayak behind the manatee for at least half a mile. Amazing! Tons of beautiful birds and a great stop on a beach. Can’t say enough about Mike and MCE and can’t wait to go again!

5.00I couldn’t have had a better experience kayaking with Mike’s Coastal Expedition. Mike took me on the most amazing 4 hour tour along the coast and through the mangroves. We had great conversations and Mike was very knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife and environment. He truly wanted to make this trip unforgettable. We saw dolphins, a stingray, many species of birds and fish as well as an encounter with manatees. Highly recommend!
An amazing experience!!

5.00My two sisters, daughter and I had an amazing guided Hobie tour with Buzz and his amazing dog JJ!! We saw a huge sting ray, a Mama dolphin and her baby and a young Blue Heron that we could have reached out and touched!! Buzz took us through a mangrove tunnel and gave us time to collect seashells on a cool little beach!! The Hobie boats were comfortable and easy to maneuver!! We had a wonderful time and highly rec commend Mike and his team!! A++

5.00This tour will be a must addition for visiting family. Mike and his team were courteous, professional, and fun from start to finish. The Hobie’s were perfect for doing a 4 hour tour. What a wonderful way to appreciate our local environment and to see dolphins up close and personal. Thanks Mike for a great trip!
Excellent adventure!

5.00Highly recommend! Mike and Antonio set us up and explained the paddle kayaks which were new to us but really fun and easy to use. The stability and hands free aspect was great and you always have the option to use the attached paddle. Antonio was a great guide as we meandered thru the bay and mangrove tunnels. We had time to putter around on a beach and swim - an excellent time was had by all in our group!
