I have always enjoyed being outdoors. Kayaking, hiking, camping, fishing, boating and golf are some of my favorite things to do. I even prefer to sit outside if there’s a great restaurant patio to enjoy. Kayaking in Florida has become one of my biggest passions and I appreciate being able to share the experience with others. Each kayaking adventure is unique as you explore beautiful waterways, mangrove tunnels, nature preserves and spectacular beaches. The experience never gets old when you connect with dolphins, manatees and other marine life.
Tommy

Meet Tommy – Born and raised in Miami, Tommy grew up on the water and has never looked back. From an early age, boating, fishing, and exploring Florida’s coast were simply part of everyday life. That lifelong connection to the water shows in every tour he leads.
Guests consistently rave about Tommy in their reviews, often mentioning how safe, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun he makes the experience. He has a natural ability to read the water, spot wildlife, and share local insight in a way that feels authentic — never scripted.
When he’s not guiding clear kayak eco-tours, Tommy runs his own fishing charters, spending even more time doing what he loves most: helping people create unforgettable moments on the water.
Whether you’re paddling through the mangroves or watching a Naples sunset glow across the Gulf, you’re in great hands with Tommy.
Peyton

Peyton has always loved the outdoors, spending early mornings fly fishing or surfing with her parents. Now a law student, she cherishes every chance to escape to the water, leading our kayak tours and connecting with nature. She enjoys getting to know guests and seeing their excitement as they experience SWFL’s vibrant marine life or a stunning sunset. When she’s not on the water or studying, Peyton stays active with CrossFit and cares for her two guinea pigs, Kilo and Gram.
Jermiah
-
Jermiah has a passion for the outdoors, adventure, and life on the water. Whether he’s leading a scenic paddle through mangroves, chasing epic sunsets, or casting a line for the next big catch, Jermiah is always in his element. When he’s not on the water, you’ll find him enjoying a game of pickleball or planning his next adventure. With a love for nature and a knack for making every tour unforgettable, Jermiah is ready to share the beauty of the water with you.

We had an amazing time. Our guide was super experienced and very knowledgeable about the mangrove ecosystems. We learned so much and it’s clear he thinks it’s pretty cool also. Don’t miss this! Definitely the highlight of our trip.

We had a wonderful time with our group on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Our guide was helpful, friendly, patient and knowledgeable! We learned about the mangrove ecosystem which was very interesting, as we came from Wisconsin and knew nothing about it! It was really fun navigating through the mangrove tunnels! I would highly recommend this tour.

Get Up and Go Kayaking is a great experience for all ages. My daughter and her husband were in one kayak and my four year old grandson and I were in the other. Our guide was very knowledgeable about Florida in general and especially the Big Hickory Island area. I would highly recommend Get Up and Go Kayaking!

My family of five enjoyed our kayak trip in early February! Our guide shared educational information about plants, animals, tides, etc. in the area. It was fun to see birds and a dolphin(!) from the water. This was a great family activity for my middle/high school age children, and I'm optimistic that we'd try this again someday!

This was so much fun! We had a great guide and we learned many interesting nature tidbits as well as having fun. The clear kayaks are really a highlight. We didn't feel rushed and had time to enjoy the beach and the kayak tunnels. The kayak paddling was not difficult and everyone had a good time. We definitely recommend this tour!
