This was an excellent and unique experience. We didn't find much trash (luckily the outdoor community keeps the area picked up regularly), but we learned so much from our guide about the mangroves and the costal ecosystem of the keys. Our guide Troy was very knoweldgeable and tailored the experience to our skill level and interests. he shared a lot about the wildlife and local knowledge of the waterways and landmarks.

Bluemoon kayak is the best! Awesome staff, great tour and we were able to clean up two bags of garbage. Highly recommend the kayak mangrove/Waterway clean up tour - this is exactly what tourist activities should be all about! Tons of education while making this place a little bit cleaner. Joe is a badass! Crabs, snapper, tarpon and about 50 lbs less of garbage plugging up cow key channel. Highly recommend!
