Ian was a fantastic guide. He helped us all get in the kayaks. He pointed out things of interest, he was knowledgeable about the wildlife in the area. Really great. He gave lots of tips on safety keeping that the priority of the day. Overall I would highly recommend this trip.

With two teenagers, it can be hard to find an activity they still want to do as a family. This was “forced” family fun and everybody ended up loving it! We all said it was one of our favorite things of our trip. Susie was amazing…super patient, knowledgeable and interesting to listen to! We saw people of all ages doing this trip! I’d definitely recommend it.

I did a tour with Susie earlier this month. I have to say, she is one of the best tour guides I've ever had. Super knowledgeable about the plants & animals, friendly, engaging & always concerned about us having a great time. She offered us wet bags to borrow & took photos throughout our tour so we didn't have to worry about dropping our phones in the water. I would highly recommend a tour with Susie!
Response from Host, Feb 2024

Dry bags are available to use during the tour so you don’t worry about dropping your phones in the water! Thank you so much for the positive review and recommendation! Come back soon and take another tour with us!

Amazing trip, so much fun even in the rain. 7 & 9 year old loved it! Caught jellyfish and saw dolphins and a bunch of pelicans diving into the water. Mangroves were beautiful and our tour guide James was great!
Response from Host, Jan 2024
Aloha Amy! So glad to hear y’all had an amazing kayaking trip - even in the rain! James is a stellar tour guide - he knows all about the local wildlife! How lucky y’all were to catch some bio comb jellies and see dolphins and pelicans - rain tends to bring out the wildlife! The mangrove tunnels are definitely one of the best features of the Space Coast! Thank you so much for the positive review! Come back soon and take another tour with Cocoa Kayaking!

We had a great time during the tour.
Although we didn't get to see any dolphins or manatees, our guide was excited to make the best time for us.
The landscape is beautiful too.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Aloha Gisa! Glad to hear y’all had a great time on the water! The wildlife that resides in the Banana River doesn’t always make an appearance during tours - we’re not able to guarantee they will - hopefully next time you’re here y’all will be able to see some dolphins and manatees! The lagoon is home to an abundance of wildlife - hopefully y’all were able to see some of the many creatures that call the Indian River Lagoon home such as the 685 species of fish, 370 species of birds(more than 125 species breed in the lagoon, while another 170 species winter there), 68 reptile and amphibian, 29 mammal species, and 2,100 plant species! With that bounty of biodiversity the Indian River Lagoon is definitely a beautiful landscape to explore! Come back soon and take another tour with Cocoa Kayaking!
