We had a wonderful guided/eco clear kayak tour (April 1) with our guide Sear! It was easy to check in, and the van dropped us right at the dock with the kayaks. We were part of a very small group, so it was easy to hear Sear when he shared directions or described aspects of the area. He was very knowledgeable and engaging! From the bay, we paddled into Three Sisters Springs, which is truly beautiful. The waterway is narrow, with the clear waters edged in dense foliage. After the passage opened into the wider springs area, we encountered a manatee quietly resting. Everything was so peaceful! We could have stayed there for hours. I was pleased to see that there were rangers in the area ensuring the safety of the manatee and the springs. Our guide Sear captured some excellent photos for us. On the way back to the dock, we also encountered a manatee with her calf! Overall, the trip was so special and memorable. Thanks so much to Sear and Paddles Outdoor for this experience.

Amazing day on and in the water with the family. Our guide, Kalley, was knowledgeable and very friendly. Three sisters was crystal clear. Lots of fish and a manatee made the trip worth the paddle.

We took the guided swim tour and were able to see fish and a manatee. Our guide (Kalley) was kind and knowledgeable. The paddle distance is easy for a novice. The water was clear. The area can get packed with people but Kalley helped us navigate the area to swim and see wildlife. Do it! Take the tour.

SO fun! It was a great experience! We saw a few manatees, lots of birds and clear water everywhere! Everyone was so friendly, however, Kyle with a smile (our tour guide) made our experience awesome! He was fun, sweet and knew his facts. We had a great time and learned a lot about Florida wildlife!

Had a great time with our family of six! Perfect weather and great vibes all around! All of my kiddos were into it - which can be a tall order to appeal to ages 8-18 at once!
