About Paddle the Florida Keys
Paddle the Florida Keys in Tavernier offers guided kayak and paddleboard tours exploring local ecosystems like mangrove tunnels and nearby islands. Customers consistently praise the professional, patient, and highly knowledgeable guides—like Brittany, Rob, and Tony—for creating fun, educational, and safe water adventures. This outfitter is ideal for families, couples, and first-time paddlers seeking an engaging, wildlife-spotting experience with excellent service.
The Good
Customers overwhelmingly praised the tour guides (especially Brittney, Rob, Tony, Keith, and Jack) for being extremely knowledgeable, patient, professional, friendly, and engaging, often sharing fun facts, history, and taking photos. The tours, particularly through the mangrove tunnels, were described as amazing, beautiful, peaceful, and a must-do experience. Wildlife sightings (manatees, stingrays, nurse sharks, turtles) were a major highlight. The company is accommodating (allowing dogs, handling late arrivals) and provides good facilities like showers and changing rooms. Equipment was generally reported to be in great condition.
Things to Consider
The primary recurring issue mentioned is the unpredictability of wildlife sightings, with some groups not seeing manatees. One reviewer noted that the current could be strong in certain parts, requiring effort, especially when paddling back. Another customer advised being prepared for mosquitos during the summer months. One review mentioned not seeing many animals, leading to a slight wonder if group size played a role, though this was not a strong complaint.
