Longboat Key Paddleboard and Kayak

Great experience today off Lido with Bobby! Super knowledgeable, fun and we saw a ton of wildlife including manatee and dolphins! Very reasonably priced. Highly recommend!!

Was a great experience, lots of wild life from manatee to dolphins, and a nice sandbar to look for shells and crabs. Sean was very nice and helpful. We will be returning!

Sean was extremely warm and welcoming. He explained to my family everything about kayaking and paddle boarding making it a very fun and relaxing experience. This place is just 10 minutes from St. Armand Square if you’re looking for some activities to do while in Sarasota. Thank you Sean for a very cool experience! 10/10

First time paddle boarding - it was an awesome experience! Sean was super helpful and very knowledgeable about the bay. We saw dolphins playing with fish and manatees hanging out near the boat launch. Will definitely be back! Thank you!

We had a fantastic time paddling around Sarasota Bay last week in a tandem kayak rented from Bob and Sean. The mangrove keys in the area were great and we had a blast hanging out on the sandbar near Whale Key (it was basically an ankle deep tide pool). We saw a lot of critters during our 3-hour rental--bald eagle, osprey, pod of dolphin, sea urchins, comb jellies (which don't sting), sea scallop, lightening whelk, snook, and we just missed seeing a manatee at the boat dock. Sean is a great guy--friendly and very helpful. His launch is located behind the Harbour Square building, with parking right inside the first level garage. We're glad we decided to make the drive down to Longboat from Anna Maria, because the bay there was more laid back than where we were staying and had a lot more wildlife. We highly recommend this experience to novices or experienced paddlers. We'll be back!
