Wildlife Kayak Adventure

Depart from Deering Estate’s boat basin on a guided wildlife kayaking tour through Biscayne Bay. Paddle quietly across seagrass beds and into a mangrove forest while your guide helps you spot local wildlife above and below the water. Our kayaks offer excellent visibility and an immersive, up-close experience with the natural environment.

Upon arriving for your event please meet our staff at the Visitor Center.
