We specialize in introducing people to paddle boarding as well as coaching advanced beginner to advanced paddle boarders. All of our Fort Myers Beach area paddle board trips, lessons and adventures are customized to meet your abilities, vacation needs, the tides (something to learn about since you won’t have experienced tidal currents on lakes and rivers) and the weather. All of our private paddle board adventure experiences are designed for one guide for 1 to 4 people. If you have more than 4 people you can call us to plan for your larger group with 2 guides. Please give Sheree a call at 231-335-7278 and she can send you a booking link for your custom paddle boarding experience.
All of our paddle board adventures include safety instructions, directions on how to use our equipment, proper paddle technique and more based on your needs. We will search for sea creatures, paddle, swim if you like and explore. If you want more lesson time then your wish is our command. The Dog Beach guided paddle at the Lee County Bonita Springs Dog Beach is dog friendly and can be enjoyed with or without bringing your dog! We offer 1-1/2 hour and 2 hour tour and lesson sessions. Our tours are kid friendly too for ages 3 and up.
The best days to paddle are when the wind is calm or ranging from 6mph up to 13 mph allowing for gusts from 14 – 20. Over 21 mph gusty days we will be closed and reschedule your tour or arrange for gift certificate. Please take a look at the predicted weather when you are choosing a day for your tour. We suggest choosing a day to paddle earlier in your vacation so that we can reschedule if needed to accommodate the weather. All bookings paid for online, in advance, as we cannot take cash or reservations at the park locations.
Dolphins, Live Shells to Learn About, Manatees, Pelicans and Dogs Oh My!
