    It was so serene and our guide Ian was the best. He was very patient and helpful. We loved our time on the water.

  • Fantastic thing to do while visiting Cocoa Beach/Cape Canaveral!

    We had a fantastic time. We were provided a kayak, paddles and life jackets. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and vegetation and pointed out several species of birds, tarpon jumping and even a dolphin! We definitely plan on returning again!

    My son and myself chose a morning kayak tour to the Thousand Islands Preserve. Right away we saw a big fish tarpon, and dolphins, a lot of dolphins, even a mama dolphin with a baby! Our guide James was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, helping us to learn about local wildlife. We learned about sacrificial leaves of mangroves, why mangroves are protected, how anhinga spears the fish and much more! Oh, and we got professional at going through the mangrove tunnel! Thank you, James, for such an amazing experience! Practical notes: admission is pricy but it's good to support small local business, length of 2 hours is just right. October is not a high season - so, we were lucky to be just 2 of us on the tour! It's good for any age really...

  • An Interesting Two Hour Trip on the Water.

    I always take this tour when we get to Cocoa Beach. It's dependably good. James was our guide. We saw a lot of the lagoon. Well recommended.

    Our guides, James and Jack were fantastic! It was a wonderful experience, the tunnel was very cool and something we could never do on our own. We can’t wait to do another trip with them!

    My friend, who isn't a huge fan of water, and I had SO much fun on our kayaking adventure. It was an overcast day, with a little rain, but it didn't matter. We spent a couple hours on the water with James and a lovely couple from Tennessee, where we learned about Florida, the vegetation and animals that make it such a unique and special place. James was funny, super knowledgeable and he made our experience memorable. Whether you see a manatee or not, you won't come away disappointed.

    This was truly a wonderful experience! Our guide, James, was very knowledgeable about Florida’s ecosystem and provided excellent information and fun personal anecdotes. I highly recommend James - especially if you enjoy a good joke now and then. We were able to see a dolphin, a manatee, several different birds and some fish, but even if we saw nothing, it was a great day to be on the water, and we had a lively and fun group. It was easy to book reservations and everyone I dealt with was very pleasant.

    Our kayaking tour was absolutely amazing! Our guide, Susie made the experience enjoyable and unforgettable. She was very knowledgeable about the area, pointing out the wildlife and sharing interesting facts along the way. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to take in the beauty around us. She found a comb jellyfish that we never heard of. It was a beautiful day for exploring a new area. Highly recommend this tour and ask to be on Susie tour for she truly made the experience a special one. Also, she told us where to go to see the manatees at Haulover Canal.
