Miami Manatee and Wildlife Kayak Experience

Lamar Lake is Miami's #1 location for manatee sightings during the region's manatee season between November and April each year. Outside of manatee season there are a number of other wildlife sightings common on our tours including dolphins, spotted eagle rays, great blue herons and a plethora of other local flora and fauna.
The experience takes in Miami's unique mix of natural and urban scenes including, weather permitting, Downtown Miami's iconic skyline as seen from Biscayne Bay.

Come join us as we explore Lamar Lake, Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic coast. During the Spring and Summer months enjoy the birds and acquatic sealife that proliferate in the area. Between November and April, large peaceful manatees migrate into Biscayne Bay making it highly likely to spot them while riding paddleboards and kayaks in the bay and it's surrounding waters.
Currents and wind permitting we can also paddle along the Atlantic Coast or paddle into the bay to see the picturesque Miami skyline -- the perfect mix of the city's urban and natural environments.

Each guided tour is lead by an experienced paddle expert, is up to two hours long and includes rental of a kayak or standup paddle board, paddles and safety equipment.
