Raccoon Island

Kelsey and Dylan were so nice and welcoming!

Worth every penny!

Kelsey, Sean, and Cody are absolutely the best guides and captain! We had a wonderful time laughing and joking. They were able to answer all of our questions and just made our experience even better. We will be back, thank you!

Needs a better description of what to expect

This was a genuinely fun experience, regardless of poor description. The group leaders were personable, professional, and knowledgeable. My ONLY complaint is the lack of online description for what to expect. I was thinking I was booking a 4 hour kayaking tour, not a 2+ hour boat ride with a kayaking tour in the middle. In one place it said beers/hard seltzer would be available, but they weren't. The only snack available was a watermelon. (Bring your own) For the price, I definitely figured they would do more.

Absolutely perfect

Amazing experience! We went kayaking through the mangroves and visited Raccoon Island — everything was beautiful and so much fun. The guides were super friendly, funny, and made the whole trip even better. We laughed a lot and had an unforgettable time. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a great adventure!
