Our main location is the Don Pedro Island State Park which features dolphins and manatee sightings, mangrove pathways, and access to a secluded beach a short paddle away.
Danny was a great guide. He brought us to dolphins, starfish, manatees, osprey. I highly reccomend this for a family outing.
The guided kayak tour was fantastic! From paddling through a twisty mangrove-lined stream to the best experience with manatees that I’ve ever had, the trip was one highlight after another. Danny, our guide, was great at pointing out wildlife, knowledgeable about everything that we were seeing and the pictures that we received after the trip were an unexpected bonus!
Me and my husband had the best time following their map and directions where we rented from them. The staff was kind and very informative and really made sure we had a great time. I've rented kayaks elsewhere before in Florida and none of them were as detail oriented or anything. I highly recommend renting from here if you want a great activity that takes up most if the day.
Excellent tour with a very knowledgeable guide who is very familiar with the local ecosystem and took a genuine delight in our adventures throughout the mangroves. Recommended and well worth the time!
Great experience and I would definitely recommend it to my friends. Tye, our guide did a great job.
This was an amazing experience! Ask for Tye to guide you, he knew the place like the back of his hand. We got to see everything we wanted to and more!
Highly recommend the kayaking eco tour!!! We’re somewhat novice kayakers so we thought a tour would be a great idea to see the park first before we try to venture out on our own. Jeff was our guide today and he was just wonderful! Very friendly and knowledgeable about the local waterways and ecosystem. He got some great pictures of our group, and although we didn’t see any manatees, we did catch a great dolphin show at the end! Many thanks to SUP Englewood!!
Super fun tour. Highly recommended. We saw numerous dolphin, a couple of manatees, and loads of varied birdlife. You will paddle past mangroves, through sheltered bays, and finally to a quiet beach on the Gulf. Our party was my wife and I, and our son and fiancée, each couple in a tandem sit-on-top kayak. The gear - kayak, paddles, and life jackets - was all in good shape. Our tour guide, Jeff, was friendly and knowledgeable. You will get wet, from a brief wade in shallow water getting in and out of the kayak, and inevitably water dribbling off the paddles. I suggest bringing a full change of dry clothes for the drive back. There are fresh water hoses at the office for rinsing off salt water. If you're visiting, this will be a highlight of your Florida trip. If you're local, get out there and enjoy a couple of hours of pleasant paddling and wildlife viewing.
Our group of 5 had so much fun renting single kayaks and getting a guided tour from Danny! We saw a manatee, a dolphin, the Florida state conch shell, sea stars, an upside down jellyfish, bald eagles, ospreys… and more! What a fantastic tour, thanks for a great time!
SUP is an excellent place to rent kayaks with. From the ease of booking, the friendly, helpful staff, to the clean kayaks & life jackets, everything was great. Our guide, Jeff was amazing, knowledgeable & fun. Highly recommend using SUP Englewood. You won't be disappointed!
Staff was friendly. We saw jelly fish and a lot of dolphins. Well worth it.
We had a morning boat tour since our visitor couldn't kayak and it was fabulous. Within the first hour we saw manatee, osprey, an eagle and too many dolphin to count. Our captain was very knowledgeable and did a great job of finding the wildlife we wanted to see. Will definitely use SUP Englewood in the future
Always a joy to tour at SUP Englewood! Nicole is so knowledgeable in both SUP and Kayak skills, as well as the wild life and water as a whole. It’s a pleasure to have her as our tour guide, and I always feel safe. SUP Englewood customer is amazing, they are prompt in their response, and always take care of you. I recommend them often to friends in the area, as well as people on vacation!
My mom and I had so much fun with Danny! He was so knowledgeable with the wildlife and had an answer for all of our questions! Not only was he an amazing tour guide. He also got some really cool pictures of us, including one of us on the kayak looking at a dolphin!!!! Our arms hurt and we’re going to sleep so good tonight, but it was so worth it. Thanks for an amazing time.
Good bunch of guys. Quick to get you signed up and out on the water. Told us where to find wild dolphins and sure enough they were there. Thanks again
Had an incredible paddle with SUP Englewood. Tye was an outstanding guide - knowledgeable, relaxed, and dialed in on all the best spots. He took us through some amazing areas I never would’ve found on my own. Gear was solid, the pacing was perfect, and the whole experience felt effortless. Absolutely coming back again. Highly recommend.
This Kayak trip was Amazing! Right away our guide spotted Dolphins feeding. The highlight was this extremely friendly, curious Manatee. This handsome Manatee visited everyone that was in our group. It was absolutely Priceless! I want to thank our Guide who was always professional and most important! HELPFUL! Thank you so much for making this Kayak trip the most memorable experience! I look forward to visiting again soon! Sincerely Mark Jablonski
We had a great time. We saw dolphins and a manatee. Danny was a great guide and was very knowledgeable about the wildlife.
We had a great tour today with Tye! It was beautiful and we saw so much wildlife!
Ty our tour guide was extremely informative and the trip overall was very relaxing and fun!
We had an awesome experience with Jeff as our guide! Will definitely be back!
Such a great experience! The employees treat everyone like they are family. Manatees and dolphins along the whole ride. We will definitely be back 😁
We had so much fun renting kayaks today. All the employees were super helpful and Ty showed us all the great stuff to see while we were out paddling.
Danny provided great instruction and gave us plenty of time to master our paddle strokes.
Our group of four women had an absolutely amazing time on our tour with SUP Englewood. The tour exceeded our expectations in every possible way. Tye, our very knowledgeable, patient, flexible and fun guide, knew exactly where to take us so that we would see multiple dolphins and also manatees. Our group believes Tye is the manatee whisperer because the young ones clearly felt comfortable near Tye's paddle board after hearing his voice and they then even gently swam by our kayaks! Along the way you will learn interesting facts about the mangroves, birds, area, and more! It was an outstanding tour and I would highly recommend this outing! Thank you Tye!!
Had a great paddle tour with Tye! He was able to show me dolphins and manatees!! And we paddled through a mangrove tunnel. He was very informative regarding all the natural habitat of the plants, birds and sea animals. TY
Absolutely fantastic! I highly recommend this experience! It was wonderful from beginning to end, and I can't wait to book again!
Fantastic kayak tour with Danny! We saw tons of dolphins and had a peek at a Couple manatees. It was beautiful weather and Danny was full of cool facts. Plus he took pics and video! All around great day.
We had a great experience on our kayak tour with Jeff! Our group ranged in age from 13 to 76, and Jeff was incredibly patient and encouraging with us all. I really appreciated that all of SUP Englewood's guides are trained naturalists, and that the company focuses on ethical ecotourism. We will absolutely return for another tour!
What an unforgettable experience with SUP Englewood! Nicole was absolutely amazing – it felt like having a private kayak tour. She’s so knowledgeable about the local environment and nature, and that made the whole trip so much more interesting and special. We even got lucky and saw dolphins right up close! Beyond the wildlife, Nicole’s passion and explanations really made me appreciate the area in a whole new way. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Englewood.
Amazing experience. Beautiful scenery complete with dolphins and manatees swimming right below our boards!
Fantastic experience. Saw dolphins paddled to the beach and had a perfect day. Thanks SUP Englewood!
We had the best time with a great guide. It was our first time kayaking!
We had a great experience kayaking with our adult children and their significant others. The weather was looking iffy in the morning so we called ahead and Ray said it should be fine by the time we got there--and it worked out perfectly! Ray explained where to go to see dolphins and manatees (and we did!) and provided a detailed map with pictures of wildlife we might see on the back. The kayaks and equipment were in excellent condition and everything well-maintained and professional. We will definitely be back!
We had a great time on Jeff’s kayak tour! He was a super friendly guide and knew right where to take us for the best wildlife sightings. We saw dolphins and LOTS of manatees that came up right alongside our kayaks! Highly recommend
Danny was our tour guide for the 2 hour tour. He knows so much about the wildlife and vegetation in this area. Our tour started the moment we began walking to the kayak launch. Seeing manatees in their natural habitat was my main hope for the day. Danny took us to the best spot and we were overwhelmed with the amount of manatees that we saw( at least 12) amongst tarpon, mullets, and even an eagle. Danny was patient and allowed us to take in the beautiful scenery as we watched the manatees swim peacefully. The tour exceeded our expectations and we are so grateful to have had Danny as our guide for the day.
Amazing experience. I came alone and everything was taken care of for me. Very worth the money. I would totally give them my business again and again. Also, the dolphins were so cute!
We did the guided kayak tour for a friends Bday and it was awesome! Danny was our guide, very laid back, very informative, he answered all our questions and he made sure everyone was comfortable in their kayaks and gear. He took us out to see dolphins, manatees, and more. Also a bonus he took pictures along the tour and emailed them to us! It was a blast, and I would definitely recommend.
This was a really cool experience today with sup englewood. I would totally recommend this to anyone who loves being out on the water. Thank you Danny for a job well done. He provided a very informative tour and pointed out all the manatees🤙
Danny was an absolutely great tour guide. His keen eye located many manatees that we got to see very close, which was such a cool experience. I highly recommend this company!
Don Pedro kayak tour with Danny. Had a great morning with Danny, really laid back guy loving his job. Explained everything really clearly, answered all questions and showed us great spots to see dolphins, manatee and a range of birds. Great tour and would recommend.
So glad I didn’t accept my rebooked flight from United and miss this! Our guide Danny was very knowledgeable without losing his audience and the morning was just perfect. Would absolutely recommend…next time we SUP instead of kayaking!
SUP Englewood provided a great few hours of entertainment, exploring & education about the diverse wildlife and environment on Lemon Bay. Jeff was absolutely amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience! 10/10 would recommend!!
The man and women who were working were wonderful. Super helpful when it came to my boyfriend and I paddle boarding as beginners. They made it super easy to navigate for the best site seeing and access. Highly recommend this place and they are perfectly priced!
Went on a kayak tour yesterday with Danny! he was great and brought us to see the manatees! highly recommend!
Incredible experience with SUP Englewood! Ray was great to work with. He made recommendations that would work best for our family. This ultimately led to a guided SUP tour of Don Pedro State Park! Speaking of guided tour, Jeff was our guide! Actually, Jeff was more than a guide, it was like spending time with friend. Jeff provided detailed instructions on safety, SUP navigation techniques, things to be on the lookout for in the park. While on the water, Jeff guided to different areas that included dolphins, manatees, and mangroves. All the while he provided encouragement to us novice paddlers! He captured pictures of the experience and also provide detailed information on the park and marine life we encountered! Thanks again Jeff! At the end of the tour, Nicole greeted us and thanked us for coming out. Personal touches like that sets small businesses like SUP Englewood ahead of the others! Keep up the great work SUP Englewood! Looking forward to our next expedition with Jeff and SUP Englewood!!!
