About

GAEA Guides uses tandem kayaks that handle like a single if you are alone in one. We do this to limit the number of kayaks in the environment that may annoy the wildlife. We also do it because there is better communication between the guide and the clients if there are fewer kayaks. We only take a small group on each tour. The kayaks are sit-inside kayaks with comfortable seats and plenty of leg room.

• The sight of 1000's of birds (herons, pelicans, egrets and many more) will leave you in complete awe! Join us for a Sunset/Bird Rookery Kayak Tour on the Caloosahatchee River where you will gain valuable insight into this fascinating area. Guided by a Florida Master Naturalist, you will learn a lot about the area as well as the creatures that inhabit this distinct region.

On the 2 hour kayak tour you will:

• Paddle on the river and some wild creeks
• See thousands of birds coming into roost for the night.
• Have a spectacular view of the famous Florida sunset.
• Learn a bunch of cool facts from an expert guide!

Duration

• 3 hours
• The entire experience takes about 3 hours, and we'll be on the water for 2 hours. Upon meeting at the appointed time we will sign in, go over some safety information and then get the equipment in the water. This takes approximately ½ hour. At the completion of the tour we allow another ½ hour to get all the equipment put away.

What to Wear

We ask that you dress for the weather:

• Usually a t-shirt and shorts will do.
• Shoes that will get wet as you get in and out of your kayak (not flip flops, they are slippery and dangerous).
• Sunglasses.
• Sunscreen.
• A hat.
• Bug repellant may also be necessary if we are out in the evening.

What to Bring/What Not to Bring

What to Bring

• Water, or something, to drink.
• Your lunch or a snack, as we will stop to eat midway during the tour.
• Complete your electronic waiver beforehand
• Gratuity is not included in your ticket price, and not expected, but greatly appreciated and lets the guide know that you enjoyed the tour.

What NOT to Bring

Do NOT bring anything that you cannot afford to get wet, unless you have it in a dry bag.

Other Tips & Guidelines

• Please arrive on time to find parking, as tours start promptly.
• If you are not at the site by 15 minutes past the meeting time and have not made contact with the guide, the tour will start without you.
