Highly recommend. Come see the dolphins! - Absolutely amazing and worth every penny. We did the 9.30am tour and Mike was a perfect guide and host.
He's super friendly, knowledgeable and professional.
We'll definitely do this again when we visit again from the UK.
Thanks Mike 😊

The BEST kayaking experience of our lives.... - This was the best kayak experience I've EVER had. I'm a very active person and I love to Kayak, and have done so all around the state of Florida. I scheduled a PRIVATE Guided tour with Mike in Bonita Springs for myself, my fiance, and my step daughter, and it was FANTASTIC.
His instruction, knowledge and expertise was unrivaled. We not only felt safe the entire time, but also relaxed and totally intuned with nature as he so professionally filled us all with knowledge of the local coast line, animal life and the history of the area.
We even got to witness a mother dolphin teaching her baby dolphin how to hunt for fish. It was an incredible experience that I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who wants the BEST. Oh, and the price was EXTREMELY reasonable.
During the tour, we also got to know Mike, the owner and our tour guide, and he is a person with high integrity, values, and ethics. If you want the best kayaking experience of your lifetime, book some time with Mike. You will LOVE it.

Highly Recommend This Experience - Myself and six other guests signed up for this and our guide, Mike was awesome. He’s very knowledgeable about Florida from its history to its geography and climate.
The four trip was just long enough to have a great time without getting drained from the kayaking in the direct Florida sun. The foot peddle kayaks REALLY HELPED. I don’t think my group could have handled paddling in open water for 4 hours.
We really loved the experience and I would highly recommend this.

Highlight of our trip! - We did the 4 hour tour with Mike and had an amazing time! We're experienced kayakers and found the peddle kayaks to be much less strenuous than traditional paddling. The Hobie kayaks are very stable and easy to maneuver. We covered a lot of area and saw a bunch of dolphins up close and a manatee. Mike is a very personable and knowledgeable guide. We will definitely be back!

10-star experience! - Coming all the way from the UK, I really wanted to see manatees, and the trip exceeded my expectations. We saw manatees on four different occasions, including a beautiful mother and baby that just cruised by my kayak. And then there were all the sightings of dolphins as well, with one jumping clean out of the water. What made the trip even more perfect was Mike, who is incredibly knowledgable about the wildlife, kind, generous and easy to get on with. The pedal kayaks were perfect for the trip, very stable, easy to steer and far less work than using a traditional paddle. It was the best 4 hours of my stay in Florida and I hope to come back another time!

Mike is the Best Tour Guide! - Bay Oaks Tour to Mound Key was an amazing adventure!
Mike led my group of seniors to the Historic Mound Key on his Hobie Kayaks, and we had a BLAST! Mike is very knowledgeable and experienced and kind.
He took great care of us, and we loved the Hobie Kayaks and the adventure itself was very fun! Would definitely do this tour again, and I would love to have Mike be our Tour guide again!

Paddle Kayak Fun - AMAZING tour!!! The paddle kayaks made it so fun and easy to adventure. Mike was a great guide and showed us many spots, mangrove tunnels, the gulf, sandbars and more. Will definitely book with him again!

Family Outing - Our family adventure with Mike's Coastal Expeditions was a remarkable journey into the heart of the local ecosystem. The absolute highlight for us was the unforgettable sight of dolphins navigating the waters alongside us. We went as a family of five, two 9 year olds and a six year old.
Exploring the mangrove tunnels and witnessing a diverse array of wildlife alongside Mike's insightful guidance. The process from booking to embarking on this adventure was seamless.
We wholeheartedly recommend Mike's Coastal Expeditions for a truly immersive and educational experience. It was not only enjoyable for our children but deeply rewarding for us as adults. We are eagerly anticipating our next expedition with Mike.
