Ryan and his team have built something special here, earning praise not just for kayak rentals but for genuine problem-solving and expert local knowledge. Multiple visitors highlight how staff went above and beyond, whether repairing kayak equipment on the spot, helping plan multi-day Everglades trips, or even fixing non-kayak gear like roof cargo boxes. The delivery service gets consistent mentions for being smooth and hassle-free, with friendly staff taking time to explain equipment thoroughly at drop-off locations like Baker Park. The equipment itself is well-maintained and includes quality options like tandem pedal kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and both Hobie and Old Town models. What really sets this operation apart is the expertise and passion for the area. Customers appreciate getting solid advice about where to paddle and what to expect, with several reviewers returning multiple times over the years. From quick sunset paddles to overnight island camping trips, they seem equally equipped to handle simple rentals and more ambitious adventures.
This is the second time I have used Naples Outfitters for a wonderful day on the water with their kayaks! The staff is wonderful, very pleasant on the phone and in person! Great communicators about any questions! Love that they give you different locations for them to drop the kayaks off at! My fav is out of Baker Park! I will 100% be booking with them again!
