I went with a large group and Charlie made arrangements for another guide so we could all go together. The guides were awesome ,and made you feel like your happiness was their sole purpose. I always felt safe and well informed. When a few of us lagged back, there was always a guide that stayed right there with us. I would do this again in a heartbeat. Try it, you wont regret it!

The experience was excellent from start to finish. The kayaks were easily accessible and easy to board. Mark (our guide) was extremely courteous and helpful. We glided through calm water into the mangrove tunnels. Mark had a lot of information about the area, the flora and fauna as well as the creatures who reside there. We saw jellyfish, tree frogs, fish, birds and much more. I loved every minute !

A wonderful way to spend an afternoon - peaceful, relaxing and educational. Our tour guide, Robert, did an excellent job helping us navigate the mangroves, pointing out interesting marine life, and lending a helping hand when someone fell farther behind the group. We saw dolphins, jellyfish, crabs, and jumping mullets (fish). I also enjoyed my swim when we stopped for a break. Scenery is serene and beautiful. I can’t wait to do this again!

I have been on this tour 3 times, and every time the experience is amazing, different, and exciting. These guides care about the environment, and give information about the wildlife. Each time different wildlife has made an appearance. There is even a place that has a sandbar and able to take in the sights. The tour is easily accomplishable for any experience level. I am very happy with this tour every time and will be going back to see what else Mother Nature has in store for me! Highly recommend!

A great experience all around. Booking my large family group was so easy and they didn't balk when two additional members joined at tour time (total of 13 people). The clear kayaks were well maintained, and it was really cool to watch the water, sand, and fish through the bottom of the boat. Our guide was fabulous! Very accommodating to our preferences and knowledgeable about local flora and fauna. He positioned us perfectly to watch the sunset!
