Paddle through Florida’s mangroves discover its wildlife!
Join active local biologists for an adventure through the Rookery Bay Reserve at the start of the 10,000 islands. Paddle to beautiful mangrove tunnels, teeming mudflats, and intricate oyster reefs while searching for amazing wildlife like sea stars, large snails, birds, dolphin and manatee! Have your choice of single or tandem kayak for the journey. Tandem kayaks are great for families with small children. Conditions vary, and usually consist of calm, waist-deep water and sunshine! Perfect for the first-time paddler and the pro.
Every day is different in the estuary, and adventures at higher tides allow us to spend more time winding through beautiful mangrove tunnels, while lower tides give us access to shallow mudflats that host a diverse community of unique benthic critters for us to find! Most days give us the opportunity to explore both, and our experts are always available to help identify the day and launch time that’s best for you and your family, ensuring that you get the most out of your adventure into this incredible place with a real local science professional as your guide. Get out and explore the backwaters of Southwest Florida with the experts! Book your tour today!
