Relaxing fun

Nolan our tour guide was excellent . He was very knowledgeable and kind. We did get to watch some dolphins feed. It was very relaxing and incredibly fun at the same time. I absolutely loved it.

Good experience but no animal sightings

Check in was easy, and Chase the tour guide was fun. However we didn't see any animals other than birds. Ofcourse there are no guarantees but it was disappointing.

No Kayaks and Our Guide Left Us

Despite the fact that this tour is named a “kayak tour” and my booking information said “kayak tour”, there were no kayaks available and we were switched to paddle boards. I had a young teen (newly 14) with me and rather than being in a tandem kayak, we were each given individual SUPs, which we had never used before. The most strenuous part of the tour was the last 1/4 when we had to paddle against the current. My kid’s arms got very tired and we had to take breaks and the guide pretty much left us behind. There were times when I could only see one kayak from our group in front of us and the guide certainly wouldn’t have been able to see or hear us if we needed help. I’m pretty sure he got everyone else unloaded and then got back on his SUP and came back out to look for us. It turned out alright but I wouldn’t book with them again unless my party was exclusively fit adults.

Great experience with wildlife and paddle boarding

Our guide, Nolan, was friendly and knowledgeable. You can tell he really loves his job. We went with two kids who also had a great time. I had never tried paddle boarding before and Nolan gave me great instruction. I was able to stand up within the first 15 minutes! We were lucky enough to have some dolphins get very close, within a few feet of a couple people and went right through our cluster of kayakers! It was an amazing experience!
