What To Expect
Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve
Join us on our mangrove maze adventure on our the most comfortable and stable kayaks on the water. On our industry leading small group adventures (no more than 8 people max), we will keep our eyes out for ospreys diving for fish, pelicans flying overhead, mullet fish leaping out of the water, marine life on the mudflats, dolphins, and much more. We believe this a really fun way to get some sun and exercise while on vacation paddling thru these magnificent mangrove mazes and tunnels in SouthWest Florida. If paddling with alligators isn’t for you this is a great trip close to Naples and people staying in Marco island.
