Why take this tour?
Key West is a very unique island in the middle of the ocean. It has crystal clear and shallow waters that are every kayaker's dream. At night, without a glare from the sun, with the use of artificial, battery-powered light - you will get an unforgettable experience that will make you feel like you're kayaking in the very large aquarium. Going on the water in the kayak at night, under the stars is an amazing experience on its own - seeing some really cool nocturnal marine life and being educated about it - is a really nice bonus!

Customer Reviews
Brandon was an amazing guide. He was on time and explained everything well in advance. He made sure our large group was able to hear him and took care to keep us safe from boats etc. We enjoyed the kayak and clear bottom with lights. Definitely recommend this experience.
Phenomenal experience, Jason had us laughing the whole time while also providing knowledge. 5 stars.
Tons of fun and Jason is an awesome guide.
Jason was absolutely incredible! He was thorough in instructions, caring, funny, knowledgeable and very eco friendly. I was a first time kayaker and he made it easy and fun. The nighttime kayak experience was one of a kind! Highly recommend!
A truly unique experience getting see the marine life of the mangrove forests of key west at night. The boats work and kept you from feeling lost in the dark. Our guide was both concerned for our safety and did his best to educate and find wildlife for the group. It was very entertaining for our group of six and eblveryone left happy. We saw crabs iguanas nurse sharks stingrays, barracudas shrimp and much more. If you are in the keys you should check this out.

One of our favorite adventures while in Key West. Our very informed guide, Jason kept us safe and entertained. We had our two young boys with who enjoyed paddling in the double kayaks as well as searching for sea life. Jason pointed out many different creatures and explained the mangroves. Great tour for all!
Captain Jason, an exceptional guide, so much knowledge that enhanced the experience. Tour was relaxing and full of adventure. Definitely will book with them next time in KW.
This is the best thing we’ve done on key west! It’s so different than any kayaking experience I’ve ever done. Highly recommended
Great guide and a saw a bunch of cool aqualife (shark, lobster, crabs, sea slug, etc.). Very knowledgeable guide.
My son and I did this on December 14th, our first full day in Key West. Brandon was awesome! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and entertaining. I definitely recommend this and look forward to going again!
Awesome experience! The guide was extremely knowledgeable and made it that much better. Definitely try this out if you’re wanting to try something fun and unique, we had a blast!
We had the most amazing time. I have never felt more alive! Many new species I have never seen or touched before! Tour guide deserves a raise. Brandon really went above and beyond!
Amazing! Brandon did such a beautiful job guiding and teaching us. Navigating the mangroves at night was pure magic. 10/10 would go again!!!!
Jason was informative and a great guide ! He had great humor and pointed out all the wildlife in the mangroves. We saw a Florida Spiny lobster, a spotted Slug , jelly fish that swims upside down that I can’t think of the name and a reef octopus ! Will definitely recommend and do it again when in town.. Thank you for a great time..
We absolutely loved our Night Kayak experience. Our guide was awesome. Would definitely recommend this trip. It's a whole different experience being on the water at night!
This was so fun! Jason was an incredible guide, was very passionate about the ocean life he was showing us and helped point out lots of creatures. We got lots of up close interactions with animals! A much cooler spin on traditional kayaking - highly recommend!!!
Great guide and great experience. Guide knew his stuff. Saw large nurse sharks, octopus, sea hare, and lobster to name a few of the marine species. Even ran across a few manatee!
Kayaking around shorelines is one of my favorite ways to know an area intimately. I've always done it alone. I knew a night kayaking experience would be interesting but I was entirely unprepared for how interesting this would be. The guide was so eager to teach us about local wildlife, his energy was infectious. We saw (and occasionally touched) creatures I'd never have noticed on my own. This experience will vastly exceed your expectations, I guarantee it.
Not sure what we were in for and thought we might see some fish. Wow! Octopus, different crab species, sea hare, brittle starfish, sponges, nurse shark, manatee and more! And kayaking at night. Well worth it, highly recommend. Great guide!
So glad we did this. We traveled with four 15 year old girls.. and they all loved it. Our guide was knowledgeable and he jumped out to catch several flights fun creatures like jelly fish. Fish, crabs, snails.
Night kayaking is one of the coolest things you can do in Key West. Our guide Jason was super enthusiastic about the wildlife, and was able to point out so many different species and teach us about them. The kayaking was very easy and it was a beautiful night. 10/10
What a unique experience! Our guide, Jason, was truly phenomenal. He made an effort to get to know us, has a great sense of humor and was so very knowledgeable about the things he hoped we would see on our tour. He went out of his way to educate us about the unique mangrove habitat through his stories. He was passionate and it made this trip so worth it. The paddling is super easy, so no one needs to worry about that part. We saw a sea slug, a lobster, an octopus, an iguana high in a tree, and apparently there were a few nurse sharks (but I was the only one in the group who did NOT see them). 5 stars all the way for this tour!
Safe, interesting, clean and visually appealing is what we can say about this excursion. The bugs were not too bag and we saw sharks,barracuda, octopus and jelly fish. The sea slug was cool. The group was large and we ran a tad late. Our well travel guide was knowledgeable and articulate. You get what you pay for on this side trip in the evening.
Jason was an excellent guide that took us on a fantastic educational tour. We saw sea creatures, and ended up in locations we wouldn’t otherwise see. We learned so much and really enjoyed our tour!!
Fun experience! The guid was very informative, and we got to hold and touch a few different sea animals. This is our second time with the same guide and he was just as awesome.
So much fun! The night we went was a full moon, it was beautiful. Thanks so much for a memorable experience!
Jason was so knowledgeable and helpful with both the kayaking and the ocean life. He made the experience special with kindness, and information. We had a couple people with us that had never kayaked and were a bit fearful and he was great with our group. We saw anemone, lobster, barracuda, sharks, sea stars, jelly fish, coral, and even a manatee plus more!! And the special bonus was a rescued iPhone. Highly recommend!!
This is definitely worth doing! Jason was an awesome guide and we saw a lot of really cool sea creatures!
Jason was such a great guide. We got up close with a starfish and octopus. You can tell he loves what he does. Thank you!
Jason was fabulous! We had a great time. Jason was funny, interactive, and full of information. He jumps in the water like Steve Irwin would have. Such a great way to spend an evening. GO BOOK IT NOW!!!! You will be happy you did.
We expected an hour of kayaking on our own but what we got was far better. Our guide kayaked with us through mangrove tunnels, up and down the bay while he explained the local ecosystem. He would jump from his kayak and net fish, crabs and octopus for us to view up close and even handle before returning them back to the water. The see-through kayaks allowed us to see ocean life up close and clearly. It was a fantastic experience.
Cool night time, glass bottom kayak experience. Jason was a great guide. He kept our group engaged with interesting sea life facts. Would recommend 👍🏻👍🏻
