Danny was a fantastic guide and very knowledgeable of the sea life and surrounding marine area. We are beginners and had a fantastic time, highly recommend. Beautiful day, lots of wildlife and overall fun. Thank you Danny and the SUP team.
Amanda and Jeff were super helpful getting us set up to go kayaking! Great location and quality kayaks and life jackets. Looking forward to coming back! Thank you!!
My son and I visit Englewood each summer and we always rent kayakers on Boca Grande. This year we wanted to try a guided tour of the local mangroves and we were not disappointed! In a word, SUP Englewood was AWESOME! Our guide and Master Naturalist, Danny, was a phenomenal host. He was incredibly knowledgable about the local area, did a great job keeping our small group entertained. He even took a ton a pictures so we didn't have to! We saw a dolphin, several manatees (very cool), and lots of different birds. Paddling around the mangroves was quiet, relaxing, and beautiful. The tour was worth the time and money. Thanks SUP Englewood!
We rented kayaks today from SUP Englewood Rentals and had such a great experience! The whole process was easy and smooth, and the staff was super friendly and helpful in getting us set up. Our family had a wonderful time out on the water — the scenery was beautiful, and it was the perfect way to spend the day together. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fun and relaxing outdoor activity in the area!
We had a great adventure with our guide Tye. We recommend the guided tour - a great day!
Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff. Everyone of them took time to explain everything and answer all questions. Amanda was our kayak safety staff member and she was great to talk with and easy to understand all the instructions.
This is our second year using SUP Englewood. We did a mix of paddle boards and kayaks. The check-in process was fast and the staff were very accommodating. All your equipment will be ready to go at the starting point. We got to see lots of wild life and went through a really cool maze/tunnel where we saw lots of unique fish. We requested Jeff again as our guide, and he did not disappoint. He is very helpful, kind, and patient with newbies. He makes the day of fun experience!! We can’t wait to go again! This will always be our go to company to use. Thank you SUP of Englewood! The Kfourys
We were very please with our tour, definitely something we would do again! Our tour guide Jeff was amazing! Very friendly, patient, and knowledgeable! We saw dolphins and got a manatee experience!
Would highly recommend! My husband and I have both only kayaked once before and our son has done it a few times. Jeff was a great instructor and guide. We felt completely comfortable out on the water with him. We all had a great time! He went out of his way to show us everything we wanted to see. We got to see some dolphins playing together. It was amazing! If you are in the area, don't hesitate to give them a try. You won't regret it!
My husband and I went out with Tye today and he was very knowledgeable and friendly. We wanted to have a fun afternoon and experience something new as we are new to Florida, and this was fantastic. Best part for us was seeing the manatee so close to us. The beach was also beautiful! Thankful Tye got some photos of us to share and reminisce about. Definitely recommend!
Jeff was our guide, and he was amazing. We had a great time! We saw tons of wildlife and were able to see the Gulf. He was so knowledgeable and very kind. We can’t wait to come back in December!
We had an amazing day on the water. Jeff was our guide and he was awesome! The entire experience was so memorable and the cherry on top was seeing some manatee. I would highly recommend them and will book another tour the next time we visit.
Rented a few of their kayaks and had a blast. The staff is knowledgeable and informed us about how to make the best of our trip. The "dolphin wall," which is about a 10 minute paddle from the dock, is where we saw two dolphins. Only a little down further is where we saw the elusive manatee. I'd give them 10 stars if I could. Both basically where they said we'd see these creatures.
Wonderful experience with Ray. We know seeing wildlife isn’t guaranteed, but we saw everything we were hoping for and more. Ray had great stories and so much knowledge. Would come down to Florida again just to go on this excursion and see the manatees with SUP! 🌊
This was a great day with Danny the guide. He was energetic, knolable and kind. They offer guided tours to show you around and you can also rent kayaks and go on your own. Nice spot for this. Thank you Danny for a memorable experience on our honeymoon. Dan & Justine Mason
We absolutely love our tours with SUP Englewood! We learn something new every time we go! Best manatee guides ever!!
Nicole was super friendly from booking to signing waivers. Captain Ray was super knowledgeable and helped accommodate our Grandmother and nine year old. Great trip. Tons of shade on the boat which was important for us. Great paddle boarding , dolphin spotting and shelling. Will definitely go again. Truly enjoyed supporting this local owned family business. True pride in ownership displayed with excellent customer experiences and service. Glad to see the hurricane recovery happening, keep the support coming their direction!
Our guide Amanda was amazing! 10/10 recommend this place!! I will be going back!
Amazing time! Staff very helpful and friendly, saw a group of manatees and other wildlife. The beach stop was by far the favorite part! Would recommend to anyone.
We did the kayak eco tour with Hunter as our guide, highly recommended! Very knowledgeable and a great guide!
What a wonderful way to spend the day!! We enjoyed a great guided kayaking tour with Danny at SUP. He was so knowledgeable, knowing every bird, fish and body of water- we learned so much- who knew?? What a nice company, we will be back! Thank you for going above and beyond to make our day fabulous!
These guys are top of the pack. Ray is super helpful and took great care of us. Even came back to the launch spot and exchanged two single kayaks for our tandem kayak midway through our rental time. If you want to rent kayaks in Boca, this is the place.
Great experience! Hunter our guide was very knowledgeable, friendly, and helped my kids find lots of shark teeth! We saw dolphins up close and would 100% do it again!
Danny is a great guide! Very flexible and patient. Highly recommend this outfit for tours or just a quick kayak adventure. Time went by so fast - there’s so much beauty in this area!
Amazing paddle adventure! Quick and seamless to organize. Booked by calling phone number. Lady was very helpful and explained details clearly. Emailed paperwork and let us pay online before we arrived. My GF and I had only a couple of hours to explore because we needed to head back home to Jax FL. Got two single kayaks for $100 out the door. Even gave me a fishing kayak to help store my rod and tackle instead of regular. Easy drive and plenty of parking when we arrived. Two coed bathrooms to change in and a hose to rinse off when done. Staff was helpful and came up with a map and route that accommodated our short time which included dolphins, sight seeing, fishing and a mangrove canopy route (Amazing!). All was accomplished and we were satisfied. We will be back for sure!
We had the best kayaking experience here! We saw dolphins and manatees, and Hunter was a fantastic guide!
It was totally awesome. The staff of the Kayak rental were great. Very helpful and absolutely amazing on instructing on the do's and dont's prior to our Kayak trip. Will definitely recommend. Hope to be able to have the opportunity to do it again.
Had an amazing kayak tour with SUP Englewood! Our guide, Danny, was knowledgeable and fun, and we saw tons of wildlife, stingrays, fish, an osprey nest, and even a secret mangrove tunnel. A truly unforgettable and unique experience. Highly recommend!!
This is our 2nd guided kayaking trip with SUP. Jeff was our guide both times. Both tours were excellent. For the first tour in February he took us to see an Osprey nest, through a tunnel of mangroves and into a hidden lagoon. On the second tour in May he took us to see the same Osprey nest to see their babies, dolphins, and then over to gasparilla island to walk on the beach. Beautiful beach! Jeff is an amazing guide, stays engaged with his group, and keeps the tour fun! Very knowledgeable as well. Thank you, Jeff. We will be back!
Jeff was our tour guide and he was wonderful! Everyone there was friendly and hospitable. Highly recommend
Our group of 6 loved our tour! Lots of wildlife - dolphins, manatees, ospreys, and more. Our guide, Tye, was awesome - very knowledgeable and helpful, and made extra effort to show us all the best spots. The company was great to work with, too, and helped us switch our time slot when a bad storm came through during our original booking. Can’t recommend this enough!
Everything about this trip was perfect. The staff were all super friendly and our guide, Tye, gave us a great tour and was very fun and knowledgeable. We saw manatees, dolphins, stingrays, and much more. Would highly recommend!!
The kayaking experience was so fabulous. From the check in to the safety guide, to the kayak itself was super. The dolphins were playing all over the bay right in front of us. Super experience! Would definitely use them again.
Danny was our tour guide on a kayak trip through the mangroves. He was very informative about the eco system, fish, wildlife & birds. A truly great guide. We will surely book another tour.
We took a tandem kayak out on a guided tour, and our guide Jeff was fantastic! He was highly knowledgeable about the area and vegetation, personable and down to earth. This is a great activity if you're looking for something to do to get out and explore!!
This tour was very beginner friendly, informative and fun. Our tour guide Hunter was extremely knowledgeable and engaged with us the entire time. We remained in shallow water approximately waist deep 95% of the time, explored a private gulf beach and saw countless native species like dolphins, ospreys. and rays. Would highly recommend this tour for absolutely everyone wanting to get out and explore Florida wildlife.
Danny was awesome! He was super patient with our 5 and 9 year old as we navigating tandem kayaks with the kids. He even accommodated a request for the limbo song as we navigated a super cool mangrove tunnel! Awesome experience - highly recommend
We had a fabulous time kayaking yesterday. The equipment was clean and well maintained, the staff couldn't have been more helpful and pleasant, the laminated maps were great for peace of mind (I always worry about getting lost) and the day was just perfect. We saw a fisherman bring in a small hammerhead shark from the dock, dolphins along the wall, what seemed like hundreds of fish jumping out of the water and the short walk to the Gulf beach was beautiful! We missed the mangrove tunnel but that will be for next time. Thank you SUP!
Always a favspot on the gulf coast. As soon as I land in fort Myers I head right up to cape haze and just spend the day with the dolphins. Saw some manatees on this last trip too. Nicole who owns SUP Englewood runs a great company with fabulous customer service. Get yourself a tour or if your like me, just rent one for yourself and go hang with the dolphins
Very nice people, super easy to read the map to guide yourself where you want to go, overall would go back again!
We had a great Tour with our guide Jeff. He explained a lot about the mangroves and trees. We were able to see Dolphins and Manatees. It was a perfect day and we had a lot of fun. The kayaks are in very good condition.
Visiting from Wisconsin, our friends who live in North Port recommended SUP Englewood. We had an amazing time with Nicole and Hunter as our guides. Water was a little rough and boat traffic was higher being a holiday weekend. But our guides made us feel safe and comfortable. Very knowledgeable of the area and friendly. It was my daughters first time on a stand up board and my wife's first time Kayaking and Nicole and Hunter paid close attention to them and gave them very helpful tips! Now my daughter wants a SUP lol!
Best money spent on the entire vacation! $65 for a tandem kayak for 4 hours. Hunter was super helpful and they give you a map/go over everything you need to know about the area. We chose to go out on our own. Sadly a hurricane destroyed the bridge to the beaches for the park.. but because you can kayak there, we basically had an entire mile of beach to ourselves other than the occasional kayak showing up. Beach has lots of shells and sharks teeth. We even found a sailboat that had been abandoned on the beach and hung out there for a while. On the way back a dolphin swam around our kayak for a few minutes within 15 feet and then to top it off we saw a manatee.(For about 10 seconds). If you want something fun and adventurous to do, I'd highly suggest supenglewood.
Ray and Amanda were very helpful when we rented a pair of tandem Kayaks. After our safety briefing we saw all sorts of wildlife including a dolphin and her baby catching fish and swimming very close to our kayaks. Saw an osprey nest with fledglings. Also went to the secluded Don Pedro island and found many shark teeth. Fun 1/2 day trip!!!
Great tour Nicole and Hunter were fantastic. Got to see dolphins, manatees and lots of birds.
Great experience! Very easy process, all the staff is super chill and very helpful to boot. I had no idea how easy it would be to see dolphins! Very much enjoyed the experience and will be back.
Staff is awesome!! Was windy so offered us to try the paddleboards, which is what we reserved, but could change to kayaks if too difficult. We weren’t on a tour but they took my son and I out to be sure we were safe and knew what to do. Friendly and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!! My only regret is I didn’t have any cash on me to tip them they deserved it! I will stop by and drop one off this week!
