The two hour Prehistoric kayak tour was wonderful. Mark our guide was full of information regarding plants and life on the estuary. We will definitely be back to take the longer tours in the future. Loved the pictures Mark took and sent to us regarding our trip. I am going to tell all our friends looking to kayak, to please call Mark for the most enjoyable time. 😎

We went on the 2 hour tour. Mark and Fabia were great guides - very knowledgeable about what we were seeing. Fabia took & shared lots of photos. It was altogether a lovely morning.

We had a great experience with Mark and Fabia. The trip was perfect with Mark guiding the way and Fabia being the photographer. The equipment was in like new condition and worked very well. Mark was an encyclopedia of information about the trip and both were very easy to enteract with. Would highly recommend this trip if your looking for a great way to get into the mangroves and discover nature.

All I can say is “Wow!” From the very start Mark, our kayaking tour guide, greeted us with such great warmth and enthusiasm and it continued throughout our adventurous excursion into the beautiful world of the Florida Mangrove tree ecosystem. If you are into a leisurely, safe, and family-friendly kayak trip through a wildlife area, this should be for you. My wife and two young teenaged kids loved the leisurely pace and felt safe at all times because the kayaks and other equipment were top-notch, and Mark was a highly competent, energetic, and attentive guide. He gave us a quick but thorough lesson on how to be stay safe and how to steer the kayak, and kept an eye on our two kayaks throughout the trip. Also, he narrated the journey, identifying all that we were seeing and explaining in detail how each functioned in the ecosystem. We saw several different types of creatures in their natural habitat. I won’t spoil it for you, but the animals we saw included tree crabs, a manatee, and a jellyfish that didn’t see to mind us touching it. Each creature was intriguing in its own way and many seemed indifferent to our presence. But for me, the plant life and rich history was the star of this trip. The price was super reasonable and there are a variety of tours that are available. And, you probably won’t find a better tour guide than Mark. Taking this excursion is a no-brainer if you are in the area and we will treasure the trip as one of our lifelong family memories, and will probably return again at some point.

The tour was perfect. Our guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. They went out of their way to ensure we had a good time. The kayaks were comfortable and safe. I really enjoyed all of the tour and learned so much about the mangroves. Will definitely recommend to anyone and would love to do a longer tour if we ever come back to the area.

What to expect
Your guide will lead you from a well-hidden prehistoric archaeological site launching area into the aquatic preserve, unveiling a rustic setting of a protected and untouched tropical mangrove "jungle".
Drift along the gently flowing waters, embraced by the tranquility and protection of the dense jungle. Venture into secluded waterways and witness the local avian life soaring high above and hiding amidst the lush foliage. Prepare for an invigorating kayak adventure through fully shaded low hanging tree canopied passages barely wide-enough for your kayak.
This secluded jungle remains untouched by motorized watercraft, shielded by shallow water, sandbars, enclosed low overhead tunnels and extremely narrow pristine waterways. You can hear the faintest sounds of nature in this protected aquatic preserve.
As you emerge from the mangroves, a winding open waterway beckons, inviting you to explore tannin-colored shallow sandbars teeming with fascinating marine life like stingrays, puffer fish, and crabs. Observe ibises, egrets, herons, woodpeckers and other birds in their daily routines.
Enjoy this ecological gem just a few miles from the bustling Fort Pierce inlet.
