    FAQs

    Arrive 30 minutes before your guided tour time so you have time for waiver signing and bathroom use. Tours leave promptly at the scheduled start time.

    Yes. Each attendee (adults and children) must complete a waiver—one per person, regardless of age. Complete the digital waiver before you arrive so your tour can launch as scheduled.

    Bring water, sunscreen (apply before arrival), a hat and/or sunglasses, bug spray if desired, and a towel. Wear flip-flops or water shoes if you have them; tennis shoes work in the park but may get wet. Dress for the weather—this is a water-based activity and your clothes may get a little wet.

    Cocoa Kayaking delivers consistently exceptional mangrove tunnel tours with guides who clearly love what they do. The booking process is remarkably smooth, with online waivers and helpful staff like Genevieve making everything easy from the start. Once you're on the water, you'll understand why people keep coming back—the mangrove tunnels themselves are stunning, and wildlife encounters with manatees and dolphins are incredibly common, often happening just feet from your kayak. The guides are the real stars here. James (also known as "Turtle"), Ian, Captain Mike, Emily, and Noah each get glowing praise for being knowledgeable, funny, and genuinely engaged with their groups. They're skilled at spotting wildlife that you'd miss on your own, from comb jellies to manatees surfacing right beside kayaks. Even experienced kayakers mention that going with a guide made all the difference in experiencing the Banana River Lagoon. They take photos during the tour and send them afterward, handle all the logistics, and adjust the pace to suit everyone from three-year-olds to seasoned paddlers. Whether you're visiting from a cruise ship or planning a family outing, this operation has the experience and local knowledge to make it memorable.

    Cocoa Kayaking very kindly and swiftly set up our family of four with a wildlife viewing kayak trip with Captain Michael. We had two small children and they were very kind and accommodating, even supplying us with pictures from our trip. We spotted a dolphin and several manatees. Highly recommend!
