AMI Kayak Tour – Bradenton, FLThis kayak tour was awesome! We had such a great time exploring the waters near Anna Maria Island, and it honestly exceeded all our expectations.Our guide, Andrew, was fantastic—super friendly, easy to talk to, and he knew so much about the area. You could tell he really loves what he does, and that energy made the whole experience even better. He pointed out all kinds of cool things and shared fun facts about the wildlife and ecosystem that we never would’ve noticed on our own.The views were absolutely beautiful—peaceful mangroves, clear water, and lots of wildlife. We saw cormorants diving, pelicans flying overhead, little tree crabs clinging to the mangrove roots, and even mullet fish jumping out of the water like they were putting on a show. It felt like we were paddling through a nature documentary.Whether you’re a local or just visiting, this tour is a must. Huge shoutout to Andrew for making it such a fun and memorable day on the water. We’ll definitely be back!

My 12 year old daughter wanted to paddle board while in Florida- it was a first for me but Andrew gave great advice and a quick lesson at the beginning of our tour and it was much easier than I thought. We paddled through mangroves and across open water. We saw some wildlife that was new to us (here visiting from Maine for the first time.) it was a great way to start our day and we both agreed that the adventure earned 5 ⭐️

Fun excursion trip for the family. Very knowledgeable guide with lots of information to share. Kayaking trip was full of wildlife like manatees, dolphins, birds, and starfish. Highly recommended.

We had a terrific tour led by Andrew. He was knowledgeable and interesting, and we learned a lot about the birds and mangroves. Andrew also demonstrated his advanced skills by helping another kayaker who had flipped! It was great to get out in nature and enjoy the calm of the mangroves. No manatees or dolphins sadly—too early in the season apparently. A reason to come back!

We had the most amazing trip through the mangroves! My sister and I decided to try out the clear bottom kayaks for the first time. Really, the only thing I liked about them is that it had a flat bottom which allowed you to sit in various positions. Other than that, the water is so clear that you do not even think to look in the boat; you could see everything! Our tour guide did a fabulous job of pointing out all fish, birds, and crustaceans.I would highly recommend! Next time, I will be sticking with regular single kayaks.
