                                                 OUR KAYAK TOURS
There are a number of beautiful local areas which lend themselves to short scenic tours, and
many extraordinary spots for photographers, birdwatchers, etc. If you just have a few hours,
and want to see the sights, just click on Tours!

There are lots of local kayak tours businesses. Each one gives a very good tour! Pick the
one that is best for you or your group. Check these points when doing your planning!

A) "How many people are on the tour?" We like nature tours without the crowds and prefer
small, high quality tours with 2-8 people maximum,  Some companies prefer to schedule
much larger groups (10-20) on a nature tour. Go with what you like!  We will work with you!

B) "Where do you go?" Since you are paying for a tour, get the most for your money. We
plan the tour around your interests and aren't locked into one location. We can usually go
where you want, or suggest locations you may like even more.

B)"How much?" Save some cash- we usually charge a little less than others as our overhead
is low. Our profit comes from  word-of-mouth advertising.  People who take our tours tend to
come again, and also send their friends to kayak with us.

C) We love what we do. We aren't out to get EVERY
person on our tours, just to satisfy every person we tour.

D) Our tours have a safe ratio of 1 tour guide per 8 people.
This makes a difference (to you, your kids, and us).

E) We do launch some tours in parks, and give kayaking
lessons there. Most of our tours are in shallow saltwater
areas or clear rivers noted for their scenery or wildlife.
                                                                                                       
Our tours and classes are in quality kayaks, led by an
experienced kayaker, knowledgeable of the area and
Red Cross trained in  First Aid and CPR.

If you want to relax, watch shorebirds, dolphins, manatees,
or other wildlife, seeing Florida on a kayaking tour is an
excellent choice. We think you'll enjoy kayaking.

If you have children who are curious about their surroundings, kayaking is extroverting and
can increase their skills, their confidence, and interest in life. And it's FUN!

We try to give better service. If you'd like to try a short tour, privately or as part of a small
group, see the Tours  page.  We hope to see you on one of our tours...












                                        WHY TAKE A KAYAKING CLASS?
Most people find it easy to paddle a kayak, want to keep things simple, and never take
lessons. Some kayakers put it off for years! That's ok.. kayaking is easy when you know the
basics: launching, landing, how to paddle forward, go backwards, stop, turn around, etc.
It's also a very good idea to know how to prevent tipping over, and how to get back in the
kayak...even if the water's only 3 feet deep! Being confident you know what to do helps!

Fishermen do manage to fall out of kayaks, and people can get tipped over in the surf or by
a boat wake. Few people find it easy to get back into their kayak at first, whether it is a
sit-on-top kayak or more traditional style sit-in kayak. Practicing the skills needed to save
yourself just makes good sense. It is a good investment, (and somewhat entertaining too)!

Every kayaker ought to be able to control their kayak, re-enter the kayak if capsized and
assist another person if needed. That's just basic survival, and it doesn't take very long to
learn how to do it. Saying "I've never capsized"  doesn't help if the kayak tips over.

We believe that the best investment any kayaker can make is:
A) improve their skills to become a better paddler, and
B) then improve their equipment.

A short class has been put together to handle all the above and more. It increases
confidence, can save lives, and lets kayakers enjoy their trips more. It is a bit of work, but is
also fun and puts you in better control of your kayak outings.

Please go the Lessons page for the specifics and the costs. Group or private instruction is
available so you feel comfortable, and do learn the skills rapidly.
