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.

Please wear closed-toe shoes and comfortable paddling clothing that can get wet, and bring bug spray, snacks, and water. Bugs and mosquitoes are very common, so come prepared. Alcoholic beverages are not permitted.

Cost: $50 per person. Spaces are limited! Ticket price includes general admission to the Estate during regular Estate hours (10AM to 4PM) the same day of your program. Recommended for intermediate paddlers.
