5Magical Manatee
Lockland was an amazing guide with so much knowledge on the area and wildlife we encountered. From the birds and mangroves to the manatees and even restaurant suggestions, he knew it all. The highlight was seeing 2 manatee and having them come over and check our boats out and just hang out with us for about 20 minutes. It was magical. Highly recommend. The company was easy to work with and very attentive also.
5Fun Experience
We had a great time kayaking the mangroves. Saw lots of birds and creatures in the water. Our guides, Lachlan and Jonah, were awesome. Very knowledgeable about what we saw and very personable. Thoroughly enjoyed our experience.
5Very Enjoyable Mangrove Kayak Tour
Very fun kayak tour with Andrew. Seeing the mangroves and all of the birds was a great experience. Would definitely do again.
5Great experience!!
Awesome family trip! Ben was a great guide and we thoroughly enjoyed his company. It was our first trip to Anna Maria Island and we can't wait to go back to book with these guys again. Highly recommend 10/10!
5Must-Do Mangrove Kayak Adventure
Our mangrove kayak trip was an incredible experience from start to finish. Ben, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and made the entire trip both fun and educational. He shared so many fascinating insights about the mangroves and the local wildlife that we never would have noticed on our own. Paddling through the peaceful mangrove tunnels was beautiful and relaxing, and thanks to Ben, we came away with a much deeper appreciation for this unique ecosystem. If you’re looking for a memorable outdoor adventure with a great guide, this trip is a must-do!
