Lots of fun! Our tour guide Jacob made it fun even though it started pouring down in the middle of the trip.

Coming from the West Coast, I found this tour incredibly fascinating as we have no nature similar to the mangroves. Very happy I booked this experience, it was one of the highlights of my trip. I had Jacob Scott as my tour guide and he did a wonderful job. He was super knowledgeable and his authentic passion and love for the wildlife and nature shined through. I saw several animals up close; A playful manatee less than 5 feet from my kayak, Osprey, a few other birds, and all kinds of little insects and animals in the mangroves. I highly recommend this tour!

We had an amazing experience on the kayak tour with Paradise Adventures Florida! Everything was well organized from start to finish, and paddling through the mangrove tunnels was absolutely beautiful.

It was our first time kayaking through mangroves, and it exceeded all of our expectations. Our guide, Patrick, was outstanding—friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He shared interesting facts about the local wildlife and ecosystem throughout the tour, making the experience even more enjoyable. He also made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable the entire time.

If you’re visiting the Sarasota area, I highly recommend this tour. Thank you, Patrick, and the entire Paradise Adventures Florida team, for making our first mangrove kayaking experience so memorable. We would definitely do it again!

Thank you Paradise Adventures, it was such a memorable experience and truly came to life because of our guide Jacob S. He was very informative about the wild life and local ecosystem. Plus for safety, how to navigate the kayaks and kind human! Highly recommend supporting this company and booking your trip with them if you are thinking of kayaking this is the spot!

Patrick was our tour guide this morning for the Mangroves kayak tour and I highly recommend him! Very knowledgeable historian of the Mangroves and area! He even recommended local places to eat when we asked that were fabulous! I recommend going in the morning due to the heat! Thank you Patrick! I would do this again especially with Patrick!

Patrick was an amazing tour guide through the mangroves at Ted Sperling Park on Lido Key! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the local wildlife and the area’s history, making the entire experience both fun and educational. We learned so much and had a fantastic time. I highly recommend booking a tour with Patrick if you’re visiting the area!
