Discover the Hidden World of Sarasota’s Mangrove Tunnels on Kayak
Paddle with us through otherworldly mangrove tunnels, which are home to a plethora of birds and all sorts of marine life. Keep a lookout on the open water portion of the tour for a chance to encounter manatees or bottlenose dolphins up close!
Launch Location Instructions
- The nearest address for the Lido Mangrove Tunnels Tour launch is 190 Taft Drive, Sarasota, FL 34236 .
- Once you arrive at this location, enter through the gate into Ted Sperling Nature Park.
- Find a parking spot, and ask any staff member for Almost Heaven!
Common Questions
- Chevron down What should I bring?
- Water! The Florida sun is hot, and we want you to stay hydrated. Help us reduce plastic waste by drinking from reusable containers rather than single use plastic bottles if possible!
- We can provide small drybags to protect phones, cameras, car keys, etc.
- Chevron down What should I wear?
Most people wear t-shirts, shorts, and/or bathing suits. During the winter months, we suggest a light wind breaker or a sweatshirt depending on the temperature and the wind conditions. The most important thing is to be comfortable. As for shoes, wear something that you don’t mind getting wet — flip flops, water shoes, or old sneakers are ideal.
- Chevron down Will my tour be cancelled if it rains?
Your safety is paramount, so cancelling a tour depends on the weather conditions. If the forecast is a light drizzle, then the tour launches at the regularly scheduled time. If there are thunderstorms or any hint of lightning, then the tour is postponed or cancelled. If we cancel the tour due to weather and you are unable to reschedule, we issue a full refund.
- Chevron down Is the kayak tour okay for children?
The Lido Mangrove Tunnels Tour is ideal for all ages. For children, we have smaller life vests and lighter paddles. We also suggest tandem (double) kayaks, so that an adult can sit in the back of the same kayak with his/her child and help with paddling.
- Chevron down Is the Lido Mangrove Tunnels Tour suitable for new kayakers?
Yes, this tour is great for beginners as well as advanced kayakers. We start each Sarasota kayak tour with on-water paddling instructions for those who need it. Then your guide provides feedback and help along the way.
- Chevron down Do the kayaks fit all body types?
We have kayaks for all shapes and sizes. We assist you with finding the right kayak at the time of your tour. Our goal is to make sure that you are comfortable and enjoy your adventure.
- Chevron down What is the water like on this tour?
This tour is in the swallow, protected waters of Sarasota Bay, so there is limited influence from wind and currents. The water is usually very clear, which makes it great for viewing sea life.
- Chevron down Will I see manatees and dolphins?
They are wild animals, so it’s always a matter of luck, but manatees are frequently seen from March through December, when the waters are warm enough for them. The remaining months of the year, manatees can be seen, but it is less frequent. Dolphins may be seen year-round as they feed and travel through the surrounding mangrove islands and channels.
- Chevron down Are there alligators on this tour?
No… We get this question all the time! There are no alligators on the Lido Mangrove Tunnels Tour. However, our Myakka River Kayak Tour has lots of alligators.
- Chevron down What kinds of birds are visible on this tour?
Depending on the time of year, a wide variety of tropical birds can be seen on the Lido Mangrove Tunnels Tour: ospreys, great blue herons, little blue herons, white egrets, yellow-crowned night herons, snowy egrets, little green herons, tri-colored herons, black-crowned night herons, cormorants, pelicans, and occasionally wood storks, roseate spoonbills, reddish egrets, bald eagles, white pelicans, and that’s only to name a few.
- Chevron down What types of live shells do we see on the tour, and can I take them home?
There is an abundance of live shells on this tour that can easily be seen in these shallow protected waterways: the Florida horse conch (the state shell), lightning whelks, true tulips, banded tulips, clams, scallops, and crown conchs are quite common. In addition to these beautiful live shells, you can also view sea stars (starfish), sea urchins, sea anemones, sea cucumbers, and many more invertebrates. We stress the word “live“ because the shells are living creatures. They’re protected and must stay in the water and can’t go home with you. But you can certainly enjoy them on your tour.

Highly recommended when visiting the Don Pedro area. The guides were very nice and knowledgeable. Could not ask for a better experience!!
Our guide, Kyra, was super friendly, extremely knowledgeable about the area and wildlife, making the time we spent together comfortable. My husband and I used this company for the Pine Island adventure and we were so happy we had to book Don Pedro. After this experience we will most certainly book again!!! Thank you for such an amazing day.
Kelly had so much knowledge of the many areas we explored. Michael seemed to attract many manatees, and dolphins. We also learned about the neat jellyfish and sea stars. Total magnificent time.
Enjoyed meeting the resident raccoon and also several manatees! Guides were very friendly, welcoming and full of information about the area's ecosystems. They catered the tour to our specific interests and went out of their way to find marine wildlife and explain their role within the area's ecosystem making it an informative as well as fun kayaking experience.
My family had a great experience on this clear kayak tour! The landscape was beautiful and it was amazing to see all the wildlife! Our guide Danny was very knowledgeable about the area and answered the many questions my kids kept asking :)

- Chevron down Cheyann's Bio
- Hello, my name is Cheyann and I can’t wait to meet you out on the water. If I am not out on the water I am most likely at the beach, gardening, hiking, hanging out with my cats, cleaning my fish or frog tanks, painting, or on some new adventure. Despite growing up in the DFW area in Texas, I have always had a love for nature and an even deeper fascination with the sea. Dolphins have had my heart for as long as I can remember. This curiosity lead me on the path to obtain a bachelor’s of science in coastal biology and a minor in animal behavior psychology from the University of North Florida in Jacksonville. Go Ospreys! SWOOP! While in my studies I discovered a passion for ecology, always wanting to learn more about our delicate ecosystem and how all living things are connected and dependent on one another. As a plant enthusiast and an animal advocate I feel so incredibly grateful to be able to share my love and knowledge about our environment in which we and many other species call home. Let’s have an adventure!

Best experience on our vacation We had never done SUP and Aaron was an amazing instructor. He helped and encouraged my kids ages 7-10 throughout the entire tour. We saw dolphins, a manatee, and crabs! We also took my mother who had never been kayaking and was quite nervous. Aaron was great with her, helping her throughout as well. Aaron gave us an amazing experience we will all never forget!
Awesome tour Fabulous paddle in the Mangroves and the bay. We’ve done several paddles around Florida and this was the best. Aaron was a great guide, pointing out wildlife and his knowledge led to a great dolphin encounter. Was a fantastic experience.
Phenomenal Paddle Board Experience with SurfIt (Aaron) in Sarasota! Had a wonderfully time paddle boarding with Surf It and had a very knowledgeable guide Aaron whom ensured not only our safety but of course our enjoyment as well! Will definitely be back to this beautiful city with its pristine beaches and to enjoy the water with Surf It!
A must do in SRQ. Surfit is the best! Great boards, great prices, great people! Very helpful if you have never paddle boarded before. Of course now we want to buy paddle boards and do it all the time!! It's definitely addictive and a nice healthy way to spend time with family.
Lido mangrove paddle Four of us went out with Aaron on a guided tour. We have been with him a few times and it is always a wonderful experience. We took family with us that had never paddled before, and he was great with them. Highly recommend Surfit!

Sarasota Kayak Tours
Sarasota kayak tours are by far one of the best things to do in Sarasota !
Why, you may ask?
Because Sarasota kayak tours are an exciting way to experience the beautiful turquoise-blue ocean water, explore Sarasota’s unique mangrove tunnels (that you won’t find anywhere else!), and to check out the Florida wildlife.
As you kayak, it’s not uncommon to spot dolphins, manatees, and other native seabirds frolicking in the crystal-clear waters of Sarasota Bay.
Likewise, getting to paddle through the tangled-up mangrove forest while spotting ocean life such as oysters, fiddler crabs, sponges, and shells is a magical experience you won’t soon forget.
Additional planning tip: The Sarasota and Siesta Key mangrove tunnels are located within Ted Sperling Park at South Lido Beach Nature Park. (Ted Sperling Nature Park on Lido Key, 190 Taft Drive, Sarasota)
Mangrove tunnels started off as man-made ditches that were dug years ago as a way to control mosquitos. They eventually turned into ‘mangrove arbors’ with mangrove trees forming a canopy of branches and leaves over their exposed root systems.
Now an important component in preventing erosion and protecting Florida’s shoreline, the mangroves also serve as nurseries for many types of fish and oysters and are rookeries for many different species of birds.

Choosing a Sarasota Kayak Company
The first thing to note is that not all kayaking companies and excursions are created equal and that it is important to do your research ahead of time.
In order to have fun (and be relaxed), you’re going to need to feel safe and well attended to by your kayaking guide.
This involves trusting that the kayaks and equipment are in good working order and that the guide is knowledgeable of the local area as well as attentive to the needs of the group.
Though there are a few different companies that offer kayaking through the Sarasota mangrove tunnels, we choose to book our experiences through Kayaking SRQ .
Owned and operated by Florida natives to the Sarasota area, the staff and crew at Kayaking SRQ are dedicated to providing you with a safe and enjoyable experience, as well as guarantee a great time!
Additional planning tip: Kayaking SRQ has several options for guided tours, as well as kayak rentals and paddle board rentals. The mangrove tunnel tour is our personal favorite!

Due to the popularity of kayaking in Sarasota, I recommend making a kayaking reservation for the date and time of your choice as soon as you know your Sarasota vacation itinerary .
Guided kayak tours depart at scheduled times and usually fill up on each trip, especially during peak seasons.
Making a reservation will ensure that you get the number of people that are looking to kayak scheduled for the time you’d like to go.
It is important to note that if the weather is not suitable for kayaking during your reserved time (thunder and lightning, storms), you will be asked to rebook or cancel your reservation.
Likewise, if you’re kayaking during the hottest months of June, July, and August, be sure to consider ways to beat the Florida heat in order to best enjoy your paddle.
Additional planning tip: Typically those ages 2 and up can take part in a guided kayak tour.
Depending on age and experience, the kayaking company will help you decide on whether a single or double kayak is best for you.
Children who cannot paddle on their own will most definitely have to ride with someone who does.

Sarasota Kayak Tours: The Experience
When kayaking in Sarasota, you will first present to a designated meeting point where you will likely sign a safety waiver and ensure that you have paid for your experience.
(SRQ Kayaking= 2 hour guided tour; $59 single kayaks, $118 tandem kayaks-price is for 2 people.)
This is a great time to ask questions and to apply your first layer of sunscreen.
Afterward, staff will lift the kayaks into the water one-by-one as individuals and partners board either a single or tandem kayak. Your feet will get wet during this process as you must first step into the water before getting into the kayak.
Once everyone is in their kayaks, the tour guide will review some basic paddling techniques, as well as go over general safety guidelines.
Additional planning tip: You have the option of either wearing a lifejacket or of having it located next to you in the kayak.
Beginning the Paddle
Typically, Sarasota kayak tours begin in Sarasota Bay.
The water is deep here, but the bay is protected from large waves and the wake of other boats.
Is it not uncommon to spot dolphins and several different varieties of sea birds while kayaking in the bay. This is also a great time to become comfortable with the kayak and to work on your paddling skills.
As you paddle your way to the mangrove tunnels, your anticipation will build as you see the gigantic forest of tangled roots and shrubs.
Though the tunnels are wide enough for kayaks to easily glide through, you will need to strategically maneuver and steer your way through as the tunnels are winding, versus a straight shot.
In addition, occasionally there is a low-lying branch that may require you to duck your head.
Though there is not a lot of time to stop and take photos, I do recommend that you pause long enough to take pictures and to admire the intricacy of this beautiful ecosystem.
After your make your way back to the original landing area, you will be given assistance in getting out of the kayak before the crew takes it out of the water. Once again, your feet will get wet as you disembark.

Do you Need Experience to go on a Kayak Tour?
There’s no need to worry if you’re kayaking for the first time!
Sarasota kayak tours take place in protected bodies of water in order to avoid waves and rough seas.
Being that each guided tour begins with a short paddling lesson, technically, no previous experience is needed.
Having been new to kayaking at one point, I will say, however, that kayaking does indeed take some physical strength, coordination, and endurance.
If you are questioning whether or not you have what it takes to be able to keep up with a group, I suggest riding tandem with someone else so that the work of paddling is shared.
On our most recent Sarasota kayaking tour, our 9-year-old son rode tandem with my husband, our 11-year-old son rode tandem with me, and our 14-year-old son paddled alone in a single kayak.
Your kayaking guide will indeed check in with you from time to time to be sure that you are getting the hang of things if you are worried about paddling alone.
![kayak tour sarasota Check out our awesome guide to Sarasota Kayak Tours from Top US Family Travel Blog, Travel With A Plan!](https://travelwithaplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Sarasota-Kayak-Tours-7.jpg)
What to Wear Kayaking
When considering what to wear kayaking, we recommend the following:
- Shorts and a t-shirt or tank top.
- Sandals or shoes that can get wet (and that dry fast).
- Sunglasses and a hat (sun protection is key).
- Wear a light jacket or sweatshirt when kayaking in the early morning or evening, or if the weather is cool.
- Life-jackets are provided by the kayak company.
- No need to bring a swimsuit or swim towel unless the company advertises swimming as part of the excursion.
Sarasota Kayaking Tips
- If it is especially hot outside, be sure to bring along a bottle of water.
- Know ahead of time if your kayaking reservation is private or combined with a larger group.
- Have a backup plan in the case of inclement weather.
- Listen carefully to the safety and paddling tips from your kayak guide as they really do make a difference.
- Sit upright with good posture while kayaking. Likewise, stay alert to your surroundings.
- Pace yourself when paddling but be sure to keep up with the group.
- It may go without saying, but hold on tight to your camera, smartphone, or GoPro so that it doesn’t fall into the ocean (the kayak company is not liable).
- Tip your kayaking crew!

What a great idea! I have recently re-discovered my love for kayaking and hadn’t thought about doing it while we visit new places. What a great way to discover and explore a new place… and get some exercise. I love this idea. Hopefully, we get down to Florida and can do this with the kids. Thank you for sharing! – Linzey @thefamilyfuntour
Yes, it seems like the ‘thing to do now’ at water-based destinations 🙂 Thanks for reading!
Ah this looks so wonderful. We have had many great adventures with kayaks in Florida and can’t wait until we can again!
I have a friend who is in Florida right now using this recommendation of the mangrove tour. I can’t wait to hear if they love it just as much as we did!

Had such an amazing day out on the water today!! Got to see so much wildlife and get so many huge shells! The service was incredible and extremely friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this spot!
We had the absolute BEST experience. Beer can beach is far too beautiful for that name, we could have stayed there for hours! Our guide let us roam after our time was up and it was PERFECT! Many manatees said hello!

This is a great place to kayak whether you're novice or experienced. Really super guides, fun and knowledgeable.
![kayak tour sarasota Photo of Robb D.](https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/photo/evVDlsuXTciN0CIbz244bQ/60s.jpg)
This is what every experience with a small local business should look like. Shane was super friendly and accommodating. He went out of his way to give us directions and tell us what to look for on our little paddling adventure. He even gave us some paddling pointers. I can't think of a better way to see the north end of LBK.

What a fun morning! Not going to lie, my arms are jello after our 3 hour guided tour but it was well worth it. This is my first time to the area and really appreciated our tour guide Mike. I would definitely do this tour the next time we are here.

Shane and his fellow outriggers and guides are my favorite and, being a resident, I do kayak with them often. They are knowledgeable, helpful and will go out of their way to make your trip as safe and comfortable as possible. I have seen manatees and dolphins several times on my adventures.

I'm a local who loves to kayak. While I've gone out with a couple of other area kayak companies, Happy Paddler is my favorite. Shane and the gang are laid back and knowledgeable, which is especially good if you have younger kayakers or first-timers. I went a few days ago and was thrilled to have two manatees come to visit me. I was actually trying to get a pic of this huge jellyfish, but then a shadow came from under my boat and as he came to the surface, I swear for a second he looked like a manatee in a shower cap. The big one was probably about 8 feet, but the little one wasn't as interested in me as he was in eating. I normally go out by myself, but sometimes I hear the guides getting ready and going over safety instructions before a tour, or hear them throwing out trivia while on the water. You'll be in shallow water mostly, but there's a nice sandy beach to get out and stretch halfway. Or, if you want to check out the shoals, you'll see crabs, anemone, and other stuff you can pick up and not even leave your kayak. So if you're looking for a cool way to see some of our diverse nature, or maybe making a family memory, I recommend lots of sun block (or sun block shirts), plenty of water, a camera, and Happy Paddler guides. Enjoy!

Second time we have rented From them in the last few months awesome experience each time. Shane could not have been more helpful, when it was too windy one day he let us rebook for another day and what a great day it was! We saw Manatee, dolphins and the day could not have been any better. We went out alone but they do offer tours too

We had an excellent time! I would highly recommend this company. The customer service is top notch. We did the 3 hour coastal tour and saw plenty of wildlife (dolphins, manatees, many species of birds, sea urchins, & crabs). Our guide was very knowledgeable and kept a good pace for our group.
