wow amazing, Kinsey was our guide and had so much knowledge, you could tell he loved his job.. We saw manatees and dolphins, he also told us of a place we could drive to about 10 mins away to see more manatees. Well worth the money, we had an amazing time, Thanks so much

5So beautiful
We had a great time with Caulin as our guide. He was helpful and patient with our lack of kayaking skills. He was very informative about the area and wildlife. The sunset was absolutely stunning. The only negative was locating were to meet, but it was quickly solved with a return phone call. Would definitely do again.
