What To Expect
Your adventure begins at the Big Hickory Pass bridge, where Mike, owner and guide, will gear you up with dry bags, shelling bags, and premium lifejackets. After a quick lesson on our top-of-the-line Hobie kayaks—equipped with Mirage pedal drives for effortless cruising and the most comfortable seats—we’ll disembark to explore either the Gulf or Estero Bay estuary, depending on the tide. Along the way, we’ll always visit a shell-filled beach, either at the start or end of the trip. Watch for dolphins, manatees, and coastal birds as Mike shares his knowledge of the area. Complimentary family photos and wildlife shots are included, with the trip concluding back at the bridge.
