Great set up- parking was ample and nice shade while we waited for the whole group to arrive. Thanks Caleb!

Booking our tour was quick, easy, and hassle-free, and the price was very reasonable for such a unique and memorable experience. Our guide, Amy, was outstanding! Her communication leading up to the tour was excellent, making sure we had all the information we needed beforehand. She was incredibly friendly, kind, and welcoming, and her knowledge of the area, local wildlife, and the glow kayaking experience made the tour even more enjoyable. You could tell she genuinely loves what she does, and her enthusiasm made the evening so much fun. The clear kayaks were amazing, and the entire experience was peaceful, beautiful, and unlike anything we've done before. Amy went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a fantastic time, and we truly appreciated her patience and professionalism. I can't recommend Glow Boats Clear Kayaking Tours enough! If you're considering booking a tour, do it--you won't be disappointed. We will absolutely be booking another tour with Amy the next time we're in the area. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

I was able to show up early and decorate the boat and set up food, Coree and Michael were so helpful with everything including even helping us set up our food drinks and decorations.

My wife and I are visiting from Maine and wanted to explore offshore so we researched boat rentals…read morein our area, chose Cortez Watersports and are SO happy that we did. Booking was super easy and the rental process was thoroughly explained. We invited two other couples to join us and found the pontoon boat that we chose to be spacious and comfortable for the six of us and one dog. We arrived around 8:45am to check in and carry our belongings down to the dock where everything was loaded into the boat for us which was nice. We were then given an explanation of the area map and a tour of the boat. We had an amazing day on the water where we saw several dolphins, found dozens of sand dollars, parked at some sandbars and caught a few fish. We arrived back at the dock at 5:00pm and unloaded our stuff onto the dock where it was loaded into a cart and wheeled to our vehicles for us which we really appreciated. The fine folks at Cortez Watersports were friendly and catered to us beyond our expectations. We would definitely visit them again and highly recommend that you consider them for your next on the water outing.

We have never kayaked before and both of our guides , mike and his friend, were extremely helpful in teaching us the proper technique. Not only were they super helpful but also very friendly and knowledgable. I'm from California and they taught me a lot about our surrounding and the wildlife we saw in the mangroves. Some of the cool sights we ended up seeing were many different types of birds, fish jumping out of water, horseshoe crabs, and sting rays. I highly recommend these guys and can't thank them enough for making our in Florida a time to remember. Ps thanks for taking photos of us and emailing them to us so we have something to take away you guys rock.
