An Effortless Way to Experience Florida’s Coast

“Highly recommend the mangrove tour.”

Our guide was fantastic and knowledgeable about the wildlife and ecosystem. We saw birds, fish, and even a dolphin swimming nearby. This was one of the highlights of our trip.

“Best kayak rental in Siesta Key”

Easy booking, great equipment, and an Turtle Beach is beautiful. The team made everything simple, even for first-timers. Paddleboarding through the mangroves was peaceful and unforgettable.

“Midnight Pass Rocks”

The staff was friendly and professional, the kayaks were in great condition, and the location couldn’t be better. We rented a double kayak and explored Midnight Pass! We’ll definitely be back.

“An absolute must-do in Venice!”

We got two single kayaks and had an awesome experience. Calm water, beautiful views, and dolphins and manatees swimming nearby. Definitely recommend Jetty Kayak Rentals!
