About

You choose: single kayaks or double? Either way, our pro guides are there to give you a memorable experience! Each guide shares their unique enthusiasm and extensive local knowledge of the mangrove and marine environments, and island-life perspective!

Our small group tour is perfect for first-timers and anyone interested in learning about the Keys. You’ll glide over clear, protected shallow water to discover mangrove jungles, manatee grass beds and a unique environment that hosts over 600 species of birds, fish and marine life. With Paddle the Florida Keys, you can get out on the water 365 days a year because of our protected trails and our award-winning location.

Important note:

We strive to start on time. If you're more than 15 minutes late in arriving, it will still take more time to get ready. You'll be offered to take the next tour slot if available or offered to do a self guided tour.

Before you go

Plan to arrive 30 minutes before tour starts. We strive to start your tour on time. Please allow extra time for travel on holidays. If you're not arriving on time, you may miss your tour. We can either reschedule you for a later time slot (if available) or you can do a self guided tour.
