Private Adventure
Kayak Tour

Quick Details:

Tour Info:

Why paddle with strangers? Experience the best natural habitats near Key West with your own personal guide.

Chase stingrays and small sharks across the flats in a foot of water.

Paddle at your own pace or just relax and drift as the breeze and the tide carry you across gardens of colorful sponges and corals.

Spend the whole tour inside the hidden world of a Red Mangrove island. Numerous jade green tidal creeks accessible only by Kayak offer a uniquely tropical and unforgettable paddle.

Swim or wade through shallow crystal clear water on the sandbars of Boca Chica key.

View nocturnal animals by starlight or moonlight as you glide over flats and pass through mangrove islands. Darker nights produce a light show as bioluminescent algae sparkles in water inches deep

Photograph the birds that made John Audubon famous.

Depart times can be arranged on the hour from 9:00 am until 1hr. before sunset.

Tour Tips:

Feel free to bring your own beverages with you. You may even bring a small cooler that will fit in a tandem kayak
Dress appropriately for the day’s weather. If light rain is predicted, bring a rain jacket!
Wear a bathing suit and light clothing that you won’t mind getting wet. You may get splashed from time to time by paddle drip!
In the winter, consider bringing a sweater or a windbreaker, as it can get chilly out on the water
Bring extra cash (~$40) if you’d like to purchase any Blue Planet Kayak souvenirs and to tip your tour guide
Please do NOT bring your own kayak, as our dock does not allow personal kayaks
Gratuities for your hardworking guides are greatly appreciated
We provide dry bags and PFDs
