We had a great time with Captain Quinn on the dolphin tour…read more We saw at least 10 dolphins and manatees up close, and a ton of other Florida wild life and scenic views. Captain Quinn was very knowledgeable about the wild life and ecosystem and he answered all of our questions! It was a blast and definitely on of the highlights of my vacation. I couldn't recommend CaptainQuinn and his dolphin tour enough!

Captain Quinn provides a super experience for water and Florida wildlife watchers. His boat is…read moremeticulous, and he ensures a safe experience for passengers. He takes special care to show customers key locations in the lagoon, and he knows where to go to see the various creatures. We saw dolphins, manatees AND alligators!! He is courteous and punctual, and communicates clearly via text prior to departure. His tour is a great value- and I will definitely be a repeat customer!

I was in town with my guy for a work trip and needed something fun to do while he was stuck in…read moremeetings, and I'm SO glad I found this. I'm a big paddleboard person, so I figured kayaking couldn't be that different... and honestly, it was such a good call. I signed up for the morning paddle and Ian was our guide super friendly, easy to talk to, and actually knew a ton about the area without making it feel like a lecture. I was really hoping to see a manatee (still a little salty about that lol), but we did see a bunch of beautiful birds, tons of stingrays, and even a random little dolphin which totally made my day. The weather was perfect, the water was calm, and the whole experience was just really relaxing and fun. 10/10 would recommend if you're into paddling, kayaking, or just want a chill little water adventure.

2026 7 1: Okay, so we didn't see any dolphins or manatees, but I still give this trip a 5/5 stars!…read more We booked a 7:30pm to 9:30pm bio and mangrove tour. The funnest part was going through the mangrove tunnels! That was a barrel of laughs as we moved through "Tarzan style", that is, grabbing the branches and pulling yourself and your kayak through! My son was in the back of the kayak doing the work, while I was taking pics or videotaping, so I had to be careful of the rogue branch to the head! But it wasn't a problem, and I enjoyed myself immensely. When it got dark, we each put our nets (given to us to borrow) in the water, and the bottom of my net was glowing! It was a bio jellyfish or something, clear, and the size of a golf ball! While my son paddled, I would just hold the handle, with the net in the water, and I would catch 2 or 3 or 4 glowing, squishy balls! Wow, that was cool! It was a full moon, but we still got to experience some of the bio, with our net and our paddles pushing through the water. There were mosquitos, but Cocoa Kayaking supplies you with a lot of repellent to put on at the start, along with a life jacket. When you arrive, there's this building with a restaurant/bar inside, that's the only bathrooms there are, but Cocoa Kayaking will meet you not in a building, but way across the parking lot toward the water, you'll see a big truck and trailer with lots of kayaks on it. Our guide was super cool, very friendly, and always a bunch of interesting stories to tell, he was one of the best parts of the trip! And in general, I really just love to kayak, and the waters were calm, and the weather was perfect, so everything went great and I would def do it again! Oh, don't worry if you can't swim, a bunch of the trip, if you fell out, the water would only go to your knees. But you can't tell while you are kayaking, it feels like it could be 10 feet deep throughout most of the trip. But it wasn't. We also saw a stingray our guide picked up for us. So neat!! Oh, they also give you bags to put your stuff in the boat with you, so your stuff doesn't get wet. We brought water bottles but didn't stop to drink them, tho it was 80 degrees out. Never even thought of it. Don't forget your deet! (I was the only one who got bit - there were 5 of us--after putting on their stuff and my deet spray, and it was only 1 mosquito, with 2 + hours on the water. But it was on my knee, after I rolled up my jeans past my knees and never put any spray or lotion there.) Also, you can pay a little extra to have the guide to yourself (up to 10 people), or you can pay a little less, but they might add some strangers to your trip, also, up to 10 people. In our group there were us 5, another couple, and a single guy. Plenty of room for everyone, except for those in the back might not have heard everything the guide was saying, which was interesting and funny.

Knowing what I know now, I would not choose this company again, and I probably wouldn't book a…read morebioluminescence tour in the Cocoa Beach area at all. I later learned that there are better locations nearby for seeing the bioluminescence. One of the reasons I chose this company was because their website advertised that they were the only bioluminescence tour in Cocoa Beach offering clear kayaks. Research after the tour shows several companies in Cocoa Beach that offer clear kayak bioluminescence tours. When I tried to book the clear kayak tour online, the website wasn't working properly, so I had to call to make my reservation. During that call, I specifically requested the clear kayak tour. The representative confirmed that the launch location closest to me offered clear kayaks and booked the reservation. When we arrived for the tour at the scheduled time, there were no clear kayaks. The tour guide immediately told us they don't use clear kayaks at that location. After the tour, I contacted the company to explain what had happened. Instead of acknowledging the mistake, the owner told me I had never requested a clear kayak tour and claimed it was my fault for booking the wrong tour. That directly contradicts the conversation I had with their representative when making the reservation. Mistakes happen, and I would have been much more understanding if the company had simply acknowledged the booking error. Instead, I was given incorrect information when booking and then blamed for their mistake afterward. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this company.
