Cormorants frequently followed along our kayaks, diving for fish we stir up paddling. Large White Pelicans grouped on the huge sandbar, Ospreys dove from the sky for fish and Egrets, Pipers and more birds were plentiful. We also were shown small crabs climbing the mangroves as we explored the passages of tunnels. We would recommend this excellent guided tour.

We found Sweetwater rented at Weedon Island and we had not been there before so we went!! First they do like you to make reservations before the day you want to go but we dod not do that. I do wish there was a way to do that online but you have to call. Luckily we called and they were more than accommodating. We told them we were about 15 minutes away and they put our name on the list and we got a tandem!! Everyone was professional and very helpful. The rates are reasonable and we got 2 hours for $34. Just the right amount of time. The Weedon Island area is really nice with some great areas to Kayak in. In particular are the mangrove paths. Really nice but can get a little tight. You will definitely get a workout navigating those!! Highly recommend Sweetwater. They are a great group of friendly and professional people.
