About

GAEA Guides uses tandem kayaks that handle like a single if you are alone in one. We do this to limit the number of kayaks in the environment that may annoy the wildlife. We also do it because there is better communication between the guide and the clients if there are fewer kayaks. We only take a small group on each tour. The kayaks are sit-inside kayaks with comfortable seats and plenty of leg room.

Experience the west coast of Florida and the peacefulness of the Estero Bay Buffer Preserve.The folks at GAEA Guides - Guided Kayak Nature Tours are running their Mullock Creek Back Bay Kayak Tour wherein you will discover the east side of Estero Bay and the unquestioned tranquility of the winding creeks and open water.

On this 4½ hour kayak tour you will witness:

  • Fish
  • Dolphins
  • A variety of birds
  • Manatees
  • Crustaceans
  • Much more!

Duration

  • 4 hours and 30 minutes
  • The entire experience takes about 4½ hours, and we'll be on the water for 3½ hours. Upon meeting at the appointed time we will sign in, go over some safety information and then get the equipment in the water. This takes approximately ½ hour. At the completion of the tour we allow another ½ hour to get all the equipment put away.

What to Wear

We ask that you dress for the weather:

  • Usually a t-shirt and shorts will do.
  • Shoes that WILL get wet as you get in and out of your kayak (ideally, not flip flops - they can be slippery and dangerous).
  • Sunglasses.
  • Sunscreen.
  • A hat.
  • Bug repellant may also be necessary if we are out in the evening.

What to Bring/What Not to Bring

What to Bring

  • Water, or something, to drink.
  • Your lunch or a snack, as we will stop to eat midway during the tour.
  • Gratuity is not included in your ticket price, and not expected, but greatly appreciated and lets the guide know that you enjoyed the tour.

What NOT to Bring

Do NOT bring anything that you cannot afford to get wet, unless you have it in a dry bag.

  • Please arrive on time to find parking, as tours start promptly.
