The guides here really make the experience shine. Sean, Isabella, Tony, CJ, and Marco all get enthusiastic shoutouts from recent visitors who appreciated their knowledge, energy, and genuine passion for nature. Multiple reviewers mention how the guides' expertise and friendly personalities elevated what was already a fun adventure into something memorable. The kayak tour takes you to see adorable, friendly raccoons (and apparently some iguanas too), with opportunities for amazing photos along the way. It's described as beginner-friendly, so don't stress if you're new to kayaking. One sweet detail: Isabella even rescued a young raccoon that was being picked on by the others, showing how much the guides care about the wildlife. Just pack bug spray and sunscreen, and you're set. With nearly 3,000 reviews averaging 4.9 stars, this consistently delivers exactly what people hope for when booking a wildlife kayaking adventure.
Liam and Jayden were awesome! We had a great experience going to raccoon island and kayaking! Unlimited soft drinks, great vibes, warm water, islands and cute animals… all we could have hoped for. It rained a few times during the trip and didn’t affect at all our experience! Thanks for a great afternoon! Seeing baby raccoons was just the cherry on top. Shout out to the captain, and to the other visitors who made it fun too!
