“I would encourage all visitors to venture away from the beach and experience the beauty of the mangrove tunnels and spectacular wildlife” – Laurie N

PARADISE AWAITS
Welcome to Kayaking SRQ. It would be our pleasure to guide you through Sarasota’s hidden gem, the mangrove tunnels. Or if self discovery is more your speed, you can rent kayaks or paddle boards and head out with a map we provide. Whatever your pleasure, we will make sure you have a safe and pleasurable experience. Let us show you our home, backyard, and passion for more than 40 years. From children to the more mature adult, we guarantee the time of your life in Florida’s #1 Kayak Park!
WHY SARASOTA KAYAKING?
Don’t worry, it may look complicated, BUT it is not! Kayaking is great exercise, it is relaxing, it is a fun activity to do with friends & family, and it is great for nature, animal, and photography lovers! Whatever the reason, we see it all, make sure to have your cameras ready!

Atlanta, GA.
I had no idea that you could do tandem kayaking and that was tricky for us, but again, great to have a patient and friendly tour guide wiling to coach us through paddling and maneuvering things.
It’s a must do for anyone and definitely family friendly plus a great way to see Sarasota and it’s unspoiled salt life.”
