Romantic Sunset Starlight and Full Moon Tour

Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys outdoor activities. Beautiful way to see a lot of sea life.

My wife and I had a fantastic time. Our guide showed us a lot of animal life during our tour. She was great

Our guide was very informative and great, she would stop and find/describe animals and plants along the way. Excellent overview of the mangrove swamps. Saw the sunset, stopped on a sandbar. Was the highlight of our trip to Key West and highly recommend.

My husband and I went on the tour with our 3 kids, ages 14, 11, and 5. My husband and I went on double kayaks with the younger ones, and our 14 year old went on a single kayak. None of us had any trouble keeping up with the group and getting through the mangroves. The guide was very informative as we saw many animals and creatures throughout the sunset/after dark tour. We have kayaked a few times on vacation in the Keys and other parts of Florida, but never in the evening. It was a nice change to go later in the day and see the creatures underwater at night. The kids loved it! They especially liked wearing the headlamps at night. We would definitely recommend this tour!

My family of 5 - 2 adults and 3 children (9, 12, 13) just took the Kayak sunset/night tour. This is a MUST DO! I have been traveling to the keys since I was a child and wanted my own children to experience all the Keys have to offer - the ocean, plants, birds, etc. in a unique way. We have done everything in the keys from snorkel to parasail... but this was the best experience ever. Our guide was incredible. It was like having our own personal biologist. We saw the rookery- every kind of bird just feet away. Of course there is nothing like a keys sunset- but to be in your Kayak on the water- so beautiful. The best part was after the sun went down and we put our head lamps on... wow the lobsters, shrimp, beautiful fish, rays... amazing at night! The incredible sounds and the beauty of the mangroves in the dark.. just fabulous. There is so much to do in Key West.. but if you are looking for a unique, memorable experience, go out kayaking with Blue Planet! It's truly amazing!

This was a bit of an adventure, but certainly not a romantic moonlit activity. We paddled our butts off. The guide seemed to be in a bit of a hurry and often left all the kayakers far behind. Don't do this one late in your vacation. It requires a bit of tolerance and more physical activity than you would expect. Also, if you are going tandem and are sitting in the back of the kayak expect to get soaked.

We enjoyed the tour and our knowledgable guide. The tour was filled with seeing lots of birds and sealife. Eventhough we tried to stay focused on all the wonderful parts of the tour, it was overshadowed by a couple on the tour who thought it was a party cruise and decided to drink can after can of beer. As the tour went on they seemed less interested in the beauty around them, and became a distraction to the guide and the group. Unfortunately things ended on a very bad note, with the guide being very frustrated and angry with the intoxicated couple. The rest of us felt a bit awkward and tried to use it as a teaching moment for out teenage children on the tour. My advice to the company would be to not allow alcohol on the tour in the future. I am not against having a drink, but this behaviour did have a negative effect on the tour, and unfortunately became the focus of our conversation surrounding the tour afterward. I wish we had been able to really enjoy the event 100% because I am a biologist, and my son who is heading off to college is also very interested in marine biology. It could have been fabulous:(

I went with my mom in a tandem kayak and thoroughly enjoyed the sunset kayak tour. It was one of the highlights in our 9 day vacation. The guide was relaxed and approachable, and made the experience amazing. We started the trip in the evening and kayaked around bird island: a small mangrove island the pelicans/cormorants/and other birds have chosen to roost together, and we watched the sunset (which was beautiful), we then donned headlamps and kayaked into a mangrove tunnel. We got to see so many creatures, the guide lifted a sea slug out of the water that released purple ink, a queen conch, a horseshoe crab, a sea star, and a decorating crab. We saw a yellow stingray, mangrove crabs, and a lobster. Not to mention the 3 MANATEES that were in the marina of our launch site. It was a peaceful adventure and want to do it again through the same company next time I'm in Florida!

Thoroughly enjoyable tour for someone who had never kayaked. My traveling companion and I were looking for something out of the ordinary to do and I found this on line. It did not disappoint. Our guide Katie was very knowledgeable and showed us all sorts of sea creatures. Another participant in the group even spotted some dolphin in the channel as we crossed. Cruising slowly through the mangroves was tons of fun, and I had a moment of African Queen magic. Only negative was we did get fairly wet from the water running off the paddles, so be prepared. Do dress in layers, as is suggested. By the time we returned after 3 hours, between the wet legs, and the sea breeze, I was chilled. Do pick up a camera that can get wet from the drug store so you don't worry about soaking your good camera. I regret not bringing mine as it would have been fun to have photos to reminisce. That said, I am glad I did not put my good Canon around my neck. Well worth the time and great value for the money. One of the highlights of my trip to the Keys.

I took an evening venture and that turned out to be so cool! If you are going with someone, you have to option of going in a tandem kayak, which makes the paddling a little easier. Unfortunately, it was cloudy so we didn't get a pretty sunset and it did sprinkle in us, but no one minded. The water that we paddled was shallow (3-4" to 3' deep). We were provided with head lamps, so once it got dark we really got to see some awesome things like upside down jelly fish, sea snails, sea cucumbers, tree crabs, oysters that grow in the roots of mangrove trees, the fluorescent orange eyes of tiny shrimp, etc. This was my first time kayaking and I would definitely do this again!
