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.
