Kayak & Paddle Board Rentals – Explore Estero Bay Your Way

Whether you're looking to paddle through mangrove tunnels, cruise across the calm waters of Estero Bay, or relax on a secluded beach, Mike's Coastal Expeditions offers everything you need for a self-guided adventure in one of Florida's most wildlife-rich estuaries.

We provide a variety of rental options to suit your pace and style:

• Hobie Pedal Kayaks (single and tandem): Our premium, hands-free pedal kayaks make it easy to cover more water with less effort. Perfect for comfort and longer outings.
• Perception Tribe Kayaks (single and tandem): A stable, traditional paddle kayak that's great for first-timers or experienced paddlers.
• Clear Tandem Kayaks: A unique way to view marine life beneath you. Please note: these are tandem only, do not track as well as our other kayaks, and water clarity is highly dependent on conditions—wind and tide can stir sediment and limit visibility. If conditions aren't ideal, we'll gladly accommodate you with one of our regular tandems.
• Stand-Up Paddle Boards: A great option for those who want a higher vantage point and a bit more of a workout while exploring.

Our 2.3-mile route includes mangrove tunnels, scenic inlets, access to Estero Bay, and a remote beach known for incredible shelling and wildlife viewing. Expect the chance to see manatees, dolphins, and a variety of coastal birds throughout your journey.

Included with Every Rental:

• Your choice of Hobie pedal kayak, Perception Tribe kayak, clear tandem kayak, or paddle board
• Lightweight carbon fiber paddles
• Life vests (adult and child sizes)
• Laminated map of the recommended route
• Dry bag for small items
