Testimonials
10/10
10/10 would recommend Carmen’s Kayaks. Joe and Lisa have such a passion for the area and their passion is passed onto their clients. We had a blast fishing (caught a bunch) and learning about the local ecosystems. We also took the Eco Tour and learned so much about the long history of this area.
New Year’s Eve
New Year’s Eve morning kayaking float. It was wonderful with the views. Lisa and Joe are very knowledgeable and made sure we had the right equipment to rent. Prefect morning. I would recommend this place.
Our family loved spending the day
Our family loved spending the day at Carmen’s Kayaks! The ecotour was informative and even as novice kayakers we were able to enjoy the scenic views.
Private tour at group rates!
Very pleasant and efficient.
The owners of Carmen’s Kayaks are very pleasant and efficient. They have a good variety of boats to accommodate big people like my son and myself. They were patient with us as we tried a few boats to get the right fit. I recommend them greatly and will support them again when I return.
This is the place!
Lisa was incredible!
Lisa was incredible. Warm, welcoming and got us in the water quickly. The area was beautiful, with lots of birds to watch and a manatee sighting. We also enjoyed the lunch recommendation of Lazy Flamingo that was offered at the end of our paddle session. Thanks! We will be back.
